Redefining Service: Military Veteran's Journey Through Identity and Psychedelic Healing

“ I think what's really important about psychedelic assisted therapy and coaching is being able to provide frameworks that are free from dogma or forced beliefs that give the person a lattice to rebuild themselves onto, otherwise psychedelics become extremely destabilizing and they can lead to reconstituting yourself in a very strange way.” - Henry MurrayHenry Murray has played many roles in his life so far. Father Husband, manager, employee, coach, entrepreneur, and veteran to name a few. He is currently a coach, and 5-MeO-DMT facilitator who helps high achieving men navigate major life transitions. After serving as a Field Artillery Officer in the U.S. Army, he began a journey of self-discovery that led him to explore non-dual consciousness, the fluidity of identity, and the healing potential of altered states.
