Getting to know Juliana Mulligan

Juliana (she/her) is a NY licensed social worker with 12 years experience working with adults using psychedelic therapy to treat substance use disorder (SUD), anxiety, depression, and trauma. She received certification in Integrative Harm Reduction Psychotherapy (IHRP) from The Center for Optimal Living, which is a collaborative approach to working with SUD. She is currently being trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and her philosophy is based in Liberation Psychology, which emphasizes systemic inequities as being at the root of many mental health issues. She is a renowned expert on Ibogaine treatment and has been quoted in the New York Times, Rolling Stone, and Reason Magazine. Juliana treats clients from a non-agenda pushing approach and will collaborate with you in meeting your personal goals and exploring your internal patterns

What should a new client know about working with you?

Juliana says, "I am a formerly opioid dependent person and formerly incarcerated, meaning that I have experienced first hand the shortcomings of our drug treatment and mental health system. This failure of mainstream treatment led me to seek psychedelic therapy abroad, which turned out to be the right tool for my process of leaving opioids behind. "These experiences set me off on a path to offer a more humanizing, empowering, flexible, and compassionate approach to substance use disorder and mental health."

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Juliana's practice is holistic, non-pathologizing, and anti-oppressive. She creates a safe, inclusive, and empowering space for clients to explore their experiences, heal from trauma, and work towards positive change, while also addressing the broader social and systemic factors that impact their lives.
