As an emergency and addiction medicine physician, Dr. Bhayana is focused on the transformational potential that psychedelics offer, moving beyond symptom management towards a deeper and more progressive understanding and treatment of substance use disorders. As a Board Member of MAPS Canada and with extended training and experience in the application of Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy, Dr. Bhayana is at the forefront of psychedelic medicine research and advancement, directing his expertise and medical background toward the future-medicalization of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy with an emphasis on best practices, ethics, and accessibility.

Most exciting is the potential to meld our evolving understanding of the biological mechanisms underlying addiction with the personalized psycho-spiritual approach being realized by psychedelic medicine,” said Dr. Bhayana. “The urgency in addressing the needs of this highly traumatized and stigmatized population has never been greater and our current standard practices are unable to meet those needs for many.”
