What it is

Written by clinician and facilitator Dr. JJ Pursell, this 2024 guide walks general readers through psilocybin's therapeutic use: the chemistry of the mushrooms, a short history of the fungi, how psilocybin acts on the brain, and how sessions are run with a facilitator. Further chapters cover working through psychological material, what microdosing means, and how to assess potential risks, with Pursell drawing on her own experience as both a user and a facilitator. It is a recent practitioner-perspective entry in the therapeutic lane, framed as an accessible self-education resource rather than clinical guidance.
