VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Numinus Wellness Inc. ("Numinus" or the "Company") (TSX: NUMI) (OTCQX: NUMIF), a mental health care company advancing innovative treatments and safe, evidence-based psychedelic-assisted therapies, today announced the re-launch of "Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers," a podcast series that will now be hosted by Numinus' Clinical Director of Education and Training, Dr. Stephen Thayer, Chief Clinical Officer, Dr. Reid Robinson as well as Dr. Joe Flanders, Vice President of Psychology.
Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers was initially launched in 2021 as one of the first podcast offerings of its kind. Today, Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers is being relaunched with additional hosts, expanded topics to be explored, and new Numinus branding. The podcast is largely focused on the professional development of clinicians, but also made to appeal equally to guides, healers, researchers, therapists, and those who are simply curious about mental, physical, and spiritual health. It follows in the footsteps of Numinus' previous podcast series, Mindspace, hosted by Dr. Joe Flanders, and builds on the success Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers has achieved since originally started by Novamind, which Numinus acquired in June 2022.
"We continue to see encouraging research that supports the efficacy of psychedelic-assisted therapy for a variety of mental health issues that are common in today's society – including depression, PTSD, anxiety and addiction. There is a great opportunity to share important information, educate prospective providers, and discuss learnings with the broader community. We are thrilled to re-launch Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers to help provide education and community around these important topics," says Dr. Reid Robison, Chief Clinical Officer for Numinus. "This platform will not only allow us to share the latest advances in psychedelic medicine and our collective discoveries - but it will humanize them, providing a more personalized way to connect with our audiences, one conversation at a time."
The episodes will span diverse themes, featuring engaging conversations around psychedelics, research and the therapy that makes them powerful agents for lasting change in mental health. Together, Dr. Thayer, Dr. Robison and Dr. Flanders lead a multitude of conversations with special guests as they explore the frontiers of psychedelic medicine, and what it takes to cultivate a healthy mind, body, and spirit.
New episodes of the Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers podcast will be released every Tuesday wherever podcasts are available including on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and on Numinus.com. Future episodes will cover topics including the practice of effective and ethical psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, trip-sitting, harm reduction, equitable access to care and more, and guests including Jon Hopkins, Grammy-nominated, English electronic music producer, among others.
