Opening the Gift of Life: A Psychoanalyst’s Perspective on Healing
In this episode of Too Curious MDs, Dr. Thomas Brod joins us to explore ketamine as a new kind of dreaming,’ ego dissolution, unitive experiences, and how safety, love, and loosening rigid defenses can open us back up to ourselves and the world.
Dr. Thomas Brod is a psychoanalyst and ketamine clinician who weaves together neuroscience, depth psychology, and poetics in his work with patients. An English major who always knew he would become a psychoanalyst, he later immersed himself in neurofeedback and EEG, bringing a brain-based curiosity to questions of dreaming, consciousness, and change.
With thousands of hours of ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, Dr. Tom has developed a distinctive approach that blends psychoanalytic treatment with a focus on consciousness, dreaming, and brain-based insights. His evolving invocation, ‘Open the Gift of Life’, guides patients through ketamine journeys to loosen defenses, rediscover awe, and reconnect with the ordinary as sacred.
