Mental health diagnoses remain largely subjective, often leading to symptom-based pharmaceutical management. In this episode, Dr Will Van Derveer explains how integrative psychiatry expands the lens - exploring nutrition, inflammation, gut health, trauma, mitochondrial function, relationships, circadian rhythms, and lifestyle factors.
The conversation moves into psychedelic-assisted therapy - including MDMA, psilocybin, and ketamine - and how these medicines act as catalysts for deep psychological healing. Unlike conventional approaches, these therapies focus on preparation, integration, and behavioural change.
Dr Van Derveer shares powerful clinical insights from PTSD and depression trials, explains why MDMA may be uniquely effective for trauma, and discusses why integration - not just medication - determines long-term outcomes.
