Upcoming TEDx Talk

I’m excited to announce that I’ll be speaking at TEDxBoulder 2025 on September 28th. My talk, Why the DSM-5 Misses the Point—and What Psychedelics Are Telling Us to Do About It, challenges the way we classify mental health disorders and explores how psychedelic science is pointing us toward deeper, root-level solutions. Drawing from both my research as a neuroscientist and my lived experience in recovery, I’ll share why it’s time to rethink how we approach mental health—and how psychedelics might help guide us there.

Stay tuned for updates as the event approaches—I’d love for you to join the conversation.
