How psychedelic-assisted therapy is being used to treat PTSD and other mental health conditions

The theme of the 25th annual Sun Valley Wellness Festival is “Coming Home” and the festival returns in person this year to explore our social health, well-being and how they define our collective wellness.

The keynote speaker is Dr. Rick Doblin, Founder and Executive Director of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies. He sat down with our Morning Edition host George Prentice to talk about his institute’s research, the FDA approval timeline, and his definition of wellness.

As host of Morning Edition, I'm the luckiest person I've ever known because I spend my days listening to smart, passionate, engaging people. It’s a public trust. I lean in to talk with actors, poets, writers and volunteers who make Idaho that much more special.
As Senior Producer of our live daily talk show Idaho Matters, I’m able to indulge my love of storytelling and share all kinds of information (I was probably a Town Crier in a past life). My career has allowed me to learn something new everyday and to share that knowledge with all my friends on the radio.
