Dr. Gabor Maté on trauma, addiction, ayahuasca | The Tim Ferriss Show Podcast

(Tim Ferriss) Tim Ferriss speaks with addiction specialist Dr. Gabor Maté, a physician who specializes in neurology, psychiatry, and psychology.

Dr. Mate’s well known for studying and treating addiction. Ferriss invited Dr. Maté to his podcast for a while because he is not only an expert in the pathologies of addiction, but he’s experimented with — and successfully used — tools that outside of traditional psychiatry.

Dr. Mate is also co-founder, along with Vicky Dulai, of Compassion for Addiction, a group that advocates for a new way to understand and treat addiction.
