A practical guide to creating safe, adaptive, and inclusive psychedelic healing spaces for neurodivergent adults. Psychedelic healing offers profound possibilities for transformation, yet for Autistic, ADHD, and other neurodivergent people, traditional approaches can miss the mark or even be traumatizing. Sensory sensitivities, communication differences, executive function, and pacing needs often go unaddressed, leaving clients feeling unsafe or unseen. Neurodivergent Psychedelic Healing: A Trauma-Informed Approach to Facilitation bridges that gap with perspectives, tools, and accommodations designed to honor the full spectrum of human neurodiversity. Written by licensed professional counselor James Reling, a certified Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner with extensive experience in neurodivergent assessment and therapy, this book integrates trauma-informed principles, somatic psychotherapy, and a neurodiversity-affirming lens. It offers both the "why" and the "how" of adapting psychedelic facilitation, from preparation to journey to integration, so clients can fully engage the process in ways that feel safe, supportive, and empowering. Inside, you'll find: The four core principles of neurodiversity-affirming psychedelic care and how to apply them in any setting Strategies for accommodating sensory, cognitive, and emotional differences at every stage of psychedelic work Approaches to informed consent, pacing, and transitions that reduce overwhelm and build trust Guidance for music, movement, and communication choices that reflect diverse processing styles Support for navigating neurodivergent burnout and its impact on readiness for psychedelic work Practical tools for assessing and planning accommodations in collaboration with clients Methods for adapting preparation, journey, and integration to meet individual needs Techniques for creating safe, sensory-aware spaces during and after the psychedelic experience Considerations for facilitating group psychedelic work with neurodivergent participants Case studies that illustrate these principles in real-world practice Advocacy and ethical frameworks for promoting neurodivergent inclusion in psychedelic care Worksheets, checklists, and facilitator reflection prompts for ongoing growth and skill-building. Accessible to licensed therapists, ceremonial space-holders, underground guides, and curious learners alike, Neurodivergent Psychedelic Healing invites facilitators to move beyond one-size-fits-all methods toward an adaptive, relationship-centered approach. Reling shows how adapting your existing practice to meet neurodivergent needs is not only possible, but a pathway to deeper connection, richer meaning-making, and more transformative outcomes for all clients. Whether you are an experienced facilitator or new to psychedelic support, this book will expand your toolkit, challenge your assumptions, and help you create environments where every client, neurodivergent or not, can enter the journey with agency, safety, and dignity
