Psychedelic Integration Circle

Mijal Schmidt

Mijal is an integration specialist, a licensed psychotherapist and an integration coach at ICEERS.

"I am a clinician at heart, very early on in life, I knew I wanted to dedicate myself to being a reader of human desire as the life force.

I studied psychology at the same time as psychoanalysis and nurtured my practice with studies in trauma, therapeutic accompaniment and musicology.

I dedicated several years of my career to working as a crisis intervention psychologist in various settings, with different populations, making me sensitive to cultural differences, mental health divergences and subjective specificities.

I was the founder and director of a clinical institute called Lazo y Voz which specialized in working with severe mental impairment. Through therapeutic accompaniment and therapy, we strengthen their reintegration into the social fabric after a crisis.

While deepening my knowledge from a western perspective, I started experimenting with plant medicines. Combined with my analytical process, I found the blending of both worlds to be prolific and clarifying of my own human experience, which in turn gave me more elements to work with others. I´ve worked with traditional healers (curanderos) from Colombia, Perú, and México.

In 2015, I travelled to Peru to diet and share my own expertise with the therapists in Takiwasi. Through this experience, my love for ikaros led me to pursue academic research as part of a healing modality available from ancient wisdom, integrating this into my work today. I've worked from the Shipibo perspective to understand the elements that are key to the transmission and acquisition of healing properties through sound."
