The Dr. Hyman Show
Psychedelics, Depression, and the Brain: A Breakthrough Framework for Mental Health
Wed, 16 Jul 2025
What if the key to healing depression isn’t another pill but a profound shift in consciousness? On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I talk with Dr. Robin Carhart-Harris, one of the world’s leading psychedelic researchers, about how these compounds unlock plasticity in the brain and offer new hope for people with treatment-resistant mental health challenges. From trauma recovery to the entropic brain principle, this is a conversation that challenges everything we think we know about the mind.
