APS Perth - Psychedelic Integration Circle

The Australian Psychedelic Society invites you to attend our next psychedelic integration circle. We foster a safe, non-judgemental and confidential environment for anyone seeking to integrate a past experience and share elements and insights in a way that supports integration.
We will support you to make sense of challenging experiences, to share a meaningful experience with like-minded people, and to connect with the local community.
We acknowledge that recreational use of psychedelics continues despite a long history of criminalisation. The group does not encourage or condone recreational use but we do provide harm minimisation support and psycho-education to those who make their own choice to do this.
The circle will focus on learning tools and techniques to work through experiences in a structured way, guiding members through a process of reflection and action. A mental health professional will be present and the session will include a short mindfulness activity / meditation.
We are very grateful for Jozay & Agnieska to facilitate this evening, both are knowledgeable, intelligent and passionate about this thriving culture of psychedelics we find ourselves in.
We are grateful to be able to host this event at 'Nature of Self', a cosy studio in North Fremantle that will be a supportive space for us.
FACILITATORS
Jozay Longden is a registered clinical psychologist with many years of experience providing psychological and psychotherapeutic services within Perth. Having graduated from Oxford University, she went on to obtain a Masters degree in Counselling from Notre Dame University and a Masters degree in Clinical Psychology from Murdoch University.
With an emphasis on how attachment experiences influence emotions, behaviour, autobiographical memory and narrative, Jozay applies an interpersonal neurobiology approach to help clients develop a healthy mind, an integrated brain, and empathic relationships.
One of Jozay’s interests include the recent resurgence in the use of psychedelics as a healing modality for the treatment of trauma. As psychedelics are illegal she does not encourage psychedelic referrals, nor does she offer psychedelic therapy. However she tailors therapy to meet the specific needs of her clients and offers psychedelic integration therapy under a harm minimisation approach, and provides a supportive, and psychedelic-informed therapeutic flavour to her work.
Agnieszka is a Counselling Psychologist Registrar with a passion for providing high quality psychological care to young and older adults. She works with clients experiencing low mood, anxiety, interpersonal and relationship issues, grief and loss, burnout, loneliness, trauma, or life transitions.
She has worked in tertiary education, residential care, and private practice. She is adept at working with clients who are Culturally and Linguistically Diverse, neurodivergent, Indigenous, or from the LGBTIQA+ community.
She draws on a variety of evidence-based therapy models including Attachment based psychodynamic interventions, Compassion Focused Therapy and Existential Therapy.
Agnieszka has trained in psychedelic-assisted therapy and is passionate about its potential as an emerging treatment for clients with PTSD and depression. Advocating a harm minimisation approach, Agnieszka does not advocate for illegal use of psychedelics but offers support and psycho-education to people who choose to use them.
Agnieszka’s therapeutic work is client-centred, warm, empathic, and holistic. She focuses on creating a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship with her clients, assisting them to gain insight, find hope, and facilitate growth to achieve their desired change.
