Intro

Welcome to the practice of Dr. Alex Trope, California-based psychiatrist and climate mental health expert. Dr. Trope's unique practice provides specialized care and coaching for leaders navigating the complexities of climate change and existential risks. He adeptly combines personalized treatment plans that include psychedelic integration and consultation. His professional focus lies at the intersection of our altering climate and consciousness expansion. Dr. Trope supports clients grappling with matters such as climate anxiety, ecological grief, and pre-traumatic stress. His treatment courses interweave social connectedness, mindfulness, gratitude, and existential dialectics to help prevent psychological collapse while embracing life amidst personal and planetary risks.

Dr. Trope's practice goes beyond traditional psychiatric care. It prioritizes the formulation of goal-based, practice-oriented plans designed to ultimately empower his clients. These individualized plans address root causes of mental health issues and existential distress, even incorporating external factors like environmental pollution and political manipulation. His approach aims to equip his clients with tools to navigate challenging existential scenarios skillfully. Dr. Trope's practice operates on a unique, academic calendar-based model, offering time-limited "courses" of psychotherapy, integrative health strategies, and contemplative practices. His clients "graduate" in June, giving way to a new cohort, while alumni are invited to join group-based psychedelic experiences. The time-limited structure marries well with the rapidly changing environment, placing emphasis on tangible outcomes and the client's investment of time and resources.
