INDIVIDUAL CONSULTATION
Psychopharmacology Consultation Service
Could psychedelics be the next step in your path to healing and wellness?
This service is for persons that are seeking an individualized informational risk evaluation of mental or medical illness, as well as medications or supplements they are taking, when considering use of psychedelic therapies
As psychedelic therapies rapidly emerge as evidence-based alternatives for managing mental health conditions traditionally treated with psychiatric pharmaceuticals, many persons will be interested in learning if psychedelics could be helpful for their situation
While psychedelics are safe under optimal circumstances, they can be unsafe in others. Use in unsafe circumstances can lead to short or long-term damage, which is not unlike any other drug, medicine, or sacrament.
It is truly unfortunate and a disservice to humanity that psychedelics remain illegal in many jurisdictions of the world, which increases risk due to inadequate support or information needed for safe use.
Some psychiatric pharmaceuticals, amongst other medications, are known to introduce risks or decrease benefits when used in conjunction with psychedelic therapies
Facilitators of psychedelic experiences may not be equipped with adequate skills to interface between existing drug regimens and psychedelics. Moreover, traditional providers may not have adequate knowledge of psychedelics to appropriately gauge risks or benefits
I'm fully dedicated to helping persons understand how their medications may interact with psychedelics and what strategies may be used to increase safety and optimize benefits
The bottom line is that if you are taking medications or have existing illnesses and would like a professional informational consultation regarding risks, benefits, and management strategies regarding psychedelic use then I offer myself in service of safety.

What are people saying about their consultations?
“Hello Ben! I don’t know if you remember me, but you helped me massively as I tapered off of antidepressants around this time a year ago. I am thrilled to report I am “big-pharma” free a year later! You are the only reason I even made the attempt after almost 20 years of trying to find a way to free myself from a chemical dependency that became a torture device. It’s especially odd to have succumbed to a chemical addiction under the auspices of taking personal emotional responsibility. Thank you so much for absolutely everything."
"Speaking with Ben was so fluid and colloquial. I truly felt as if I was having a conversation with a trusted friend. He provided extremely helpful information, empathy, support, and kindness, and I am so thankful for that."
"Dr. Malcolm listened carefully and attended to what I described as my intentions, and the pros/cons of my current medications. It is so rare to find folks in the psychedelic space who don't evangelize (and I suppose the same could be said of the traditional psychiatric pharm space) so I really appreciated how he worked with nuance. He made clear the risks, concerns, and approaches I might to take to interactions between my meds and my planned plant medicine work. A vital service, thank you."
"Thank you for the thoughtful insights Ben! I had all of my questions answered that I had planned to discuss plus additional help and insights that I hadn't even considered."
