“This clinic offers new hope for patients who have exhausted traditional mental health treatments.”-Melissa Whippo, Clinic Director, Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy Clinic

Trustees, faculty, students, and staff crowded into a newly renovated space on the CIIS campus for a ribbon cutting that marked the opening of the first-ever university-affiliated ketamine-assisted psychotherapy clinic. The culmination of years of work, research, and belief in the promise of deep and lasting healing, CIIS’ Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy Clinic (KAP) was finally ready to receive those in need of care.

Just before the ribbon fell, CIIS President Brock Blomberg took a moment to honor everyone involved for “helping to prepare a new generation of practitioners for work that was once considered marginal but is now increasingly recognized as one of the most important frontiers in mental healthcare.”

What if dreams are not simply images that dissolve upon waking, but living communications from the depths of the soul?

CIIS professor Willow Pearson Trimbach and co-author Eva Tuschman Leonard explore how dreams reveal emotional truths that transform psychotherapeutic and spiritual practice.

The book just launched and has already drawn recognition from leading voices in psychoanalysis and contemplative practice, and now anyone from the community is welcome to experience the conversation.

Want to hear from the authors and meet them in person?
Pearson Trimbach and Tuschman Leonard will celebrate the release of The Emotional Truth of Dreams at a book launch event hosted by CIIS Public Programs on July 22, 2026.

“The question isn’t whether we can keep up with AI. It’s whether we can slow down enough to access the depths of human wisdom that no algorithm can replicate.”-Chris Heuer, founder of Team Flow Institute

As we navigate this era where AI handles propositional knowledge and task execution at superhuman speeds, our uniquely human capacities – wisdom, embodied knowing, values-based decision-making, and the ability to create psychological safety for others – become not just valuable but essential.

“This is about bringing cognitive science and leadership skills and psychology and contemplative awareness and wisdom cultivation skills together into a single container.” -Bruce Alderman, Associate Director of the Blue Sky Leaders program

Explore how the Blue Sky Leaders program can deepen your own leadership practice. Visit our website academic programs from the link in our bio.

June 4th, 6pm, in-person and online. Use the @anthciis link in bio to sign up! $11 - $32 sliding scale. @ciispubprograms member or happen to be a @ciis_sf prospective student? Get free admission!

A co-production of @blackbuddhiststudies and @ciispubprograms with book partner, @marcus.books

Join author Dr. Rima Vesely-Flad for a conversation exploring a Dharma of liberation, offering timely lessons to help us meet this moment, using the writings of Audre Lorde and James Baldwin to provide real world examples of this dharma in practice.

Dr. Vesely-Flad’s latest book The Fire Inside, examines the writings of Lorde and Baldwin through a Dharmic lens, and discusses how two of America’s greatest literary voices reflect—and expand—Buddhism’s most timeless truths toward justice and liberation. In this conversation with mindfulness teacher Rhonda V. Magee, she will share how the writers’ enduring legacies show that liberation depends not only on organizing and mass movements, but the generative power of inner well-being, authenticity, art, and embodiment. She invites us to examine Baldwin and Lorde through key Buddhist principles such as suffering as teacher, impermanence, karma, anger, and compassion in order to deepen and enhance our own understanding of Buddhism, and liberation.

Through her work and writing, Dr. Vesely-Flad centers and celebrates Black, queer, radical thought and invites us to embrace the ways our inner lives, creative fire, sensuality, and expressions of love can ignite and sustain revolutionary liberation.

“My spirit is uplifted. My body is content. My emotions flow. I have grown. I have learned. We are a larger family of healers.”-Integrated Wellness Fellowship participant

One of our favorite moments this semester was witnessinga celebration of healing, community, and ancestral wisdom hosted by CIIS' Division of Community Engagement and Belonging and the Healing Clinic Collective. People came together to celebrate the Integrated Wellness Fellowship (IWF), which is a yearlong program designed to train emerging clinicians in cultural and ancestral healing practices while strengthening their clinical skills in community-based settings.

The event was hosted at EastSide Arts Alliance (ESAA), which uses arts and culture to build community power and self-determination and is dedicated to building deep connections between and among working class & low-income communities of color, communities whose histories, stories and cultures are actively erased from mainstream narratives.

“Being a historically marginalized person myself, just to keep it real, I really wanted to see myself in the curriculum — and I saw myself in the structure of this program.

The fact that I have an opportunity to have a distinct voice in academia that I can share with other folks to carry on, to really solidify this field as something that is impactful and integral into our everyday lives — just having an opportunity to further this specific academic field is just kind of amazing.”
Courtney Johnson-Benson, Class of 2027, Human Sexuality Department
