Safety

Michael Ledden is a fully accredited Integrative Psychotherapist with professional memberships (IACP, IAHIP, ICP) and advanced qualifications in counselling and psychotherapy, integrating trauma‑aware, evidence‑informed practices with harm‑reduction guidance for those engaging with psychedelic experiences. His services emphasise creating a safe therapeutic environment for emotional processing, readiness assessment before engagement in integration work, and psychological support tailored to each client’s context.

Care pathway

Clients begin by contacting Michael Ledden to discuss their background, goals and what they hope to explore in therapy or integration work. After an initial consultation to clarify suitability and needs, regular integration or psychotherapy sessions are scheduled. For those exploring psychedelic preparation or integration, a plan is created that may include preparatory therapy sessions, targeted integration work after experiences and optional adjunct modalities such as shamanic counselling or shamanic energy sessions. Supervision engagements with other practitioners also begin with an exploratory conversation about goals and support needs.
