What happens when traditional mental health treatments aren’t enough?
In this powerful episode of EmotionAL Support, Alessandra Torresani sits down with Dr. Jeff McNairy, Psy.D., M.P.H., Chief Medical Officer of Rythmia and one of the leading voices in psychedelic-assisted healing and trauma recovery.
With more than 25 years of experience in psychology, addiction treatment, and mental health care, Dr. Jeff shares how unresolved trauma can become trapped in the body and brain—and why many people struggling with PTSD, depression, anxiety, addiction, and emotional pain continue searching for answers long after conventional treatments have failed.
Together, they explore:
✨ The neuroscience of trauma and emotional memory
✨ How the brain stores unresolved experiences
✨ The growing role of ayahuasca and psychedelic-assisted therapy in mental health treatment
✨ Why emotional healing often requires more than symptom management
✨ The connection between trauma, addiction, depression, and the nervous system
✨ What thousands of patient transformations have taught him about recovery
✨ The future of mental health and psychedelic medicine
Whether you’re curious about plant medicine, trauma recovery, emotional wellness, or the evolving landscape of mental health treatment, this conversation offers a fascinating look at how healing may be possible in ways many people never imagined.
