S3E16: From Feeling to Healing with Michael Anthony

On this episode of Therapy is Dope with Alicia and Laura, we sit down with Michael Anthony for a wide-ranging conversation on men's mental health, ketamine-assisted therapy, and martial arts. We start with the heart of it: why so many men learn to armor up instead of feel, what it actually takes to drop that armor, and how strength and vulnerability stop being opposites. That opens into ketamine-assisted therapy and trauma work—Michael breaks down in plain language what ketamine assisted therapy is, who it can help, and why the therapeutic container and integration after the medicine matters more than the medicine itself. From there we move into martial arts, where discipline, presence, and physical resilience become a doorway into the emotional work rather than a distraction from it. If you're curious about men's emotional healing, psychedelic-assisted therapy, or how the body holds what the mind won't say, this conversation meets you there—no protocols, no clichés, just the real work.Connect: 📧 [email protected] 📞 386-400-3854
