[NEW EPISODE] Expanding Psychedelic Medicine Access with Enthea Founder Sherry Rais

“The mission of Mind Body Health & Politics is to expand consciousness, stimulate thought, enhance mental and physical health, and encourage community.” — Dr. Richard L. Miller

I am thrilled to share with you the highlights from my recent conversation with Sherry Rais, CEO and Co-Founder of Enthea. Sherry has dedicated her career to helping startups, non-profit organizations, and small businesses operate according to their mission and values. She is currently focused on expanding access to psychedelic-assisted therapy to alleviate human suffering.

After spending 10 years consulting for the United Nations and World Bank, she started realizing the extent of global disparities in mental health care.

"In high-income countries like Canada and the US, 70% of people with psychosis receive treatment,” she notes, “However, if you go to low-income countries, that number plummets to 12%.”

Witnessing the limitations of traditional approaches to psychiatric care, Sherry was amazed by the high success rates of psychedelic-assisted therapy Sherry's interest was initially sparked by studies on psilocybin, MDMA, LSD, and ketamine-assisted therapy, particularly those conducted in the United States. However, she also found inspiration from research in the UK, Australia, and Canada.
