PFE Reviews

“A great choice for anyone seeking to understand why psychedelics hold promise to be the biggest change in mental health in 50 years."

David Cox. PhD.
Executive Officer of the American Board of Professional Psycholog

“Psychedelics for Everyone is a fascinating read that takes you on a guided trip of all that is happening with psychedelic medicine today.”

Dr. Anja Harrison, PhD.
King’s College London-Department of Psychological Medicine, Fellow of the Higher Education Academy

"The psychedelic world is rich, beautiful, and complex. Any person could spend a lifetime studying the cultures, traditions, and potential uses of these substances. Matt Zemon through the book Psychedelics for Everyone does a wonderful job of distilling this information into something that is approachable for everyone. I encourage every veteran who is looking for a better way to heal to start with this book."

Jesse Gould
Founder, Heroic Hearts Project, Army Ranger Veteran

“Matt's personal stories are a true testament to the wide-ranging powers these medicines can have to heal intergenerational trauma, promote family bonding, and foster empathy."

Dr. Lynn Marie Morski, MD, JD
President of the Psychedelic Medicine Association and Medical Director for Nue Life Health

“Psychedelics for Everyone is radically mind-expanding, especially for those of us who grew up in the "just say no" 80s. What a different take on the war on these drugs!”

David Flores, CEO
PSYC Corporation & Psychedelic Spotlight

“Psychedelics for Everyone provides great insights into how people are working with psychedelic medicine to help answer some of life's biggest questions and to heal. While taking psychedelics is not for everyone, Matt Zemon makes a compelling argument as to why, under some circumstances, these medicines can promote recovery from mental trauma."

Dr. Srikumar Rao
Founder of The Rao Institute and best-selling author of Are You Ready to Succeed and Happiness at Work

“I have read many books on psychedelics in my almost 10 years of being involved in this work and I really appreciate what Matt Zemon did with this book. His personal stories resonate very strongly with my own path, and I appreciated his vulnerability in sharing them. I also found the breakdown by different substances and sub-themes within them to be a much better-organized introduction than other books out there. Non-professionals and professionals alike will benefit from this as a resource."

Frank Ehrenfried, MA, LMFT
MAPS and Polaris trained Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapist & MAPS Adherence Rater

“People find their way to psychedelics for many different reasons. No matter your reason, Psychedelics for Everyone is an incredible deep dive into understanding the power of this medicine and gives you tools as you both explore your own consciousness and share the healing potential of psychedelics with others around you."

Alli Schaper
Co-Founder & CEO, The Multiverse

“A powerful book that will surely win hearts and minds. Although not everyone who reads Psychedelics for Everyone will try a psychedelic, it will be impossible for them not to understand why they are important medicines. The chapters on ketamine are powerful reminders of the potential for this medicine to help so many people who are suffering. It is exciting that more psychedelic medicines are being rigorously studied and appear to be on the horizon”
