Mark Green, MD
Mark is a psychiatrist – originally from London, now in Boston – specialising in addictions and psychedelic therapies. After residency and fellowships at Cornell, he conducted neurobiology research in stress at Rockefeller University and then was a harm reductionist addictions specialist and psychopharmacologist, running programs big and small (from state-wide to boutique dual disorders programs ). He has been faculty at Harvard, Cornell and Vermont and trained at every level in evidence based therapies and psychedelic assisted therapies, and more. He has lectured nationally in these areas as well as AEDP Institute (AEDP and ketamine) and published on AEDP and addictions in the Transformance journal.
AEDP is a bit of a spiritual practice for Mark but he knows that to do it well requires rigor, practice and theory. His main AEDP teachers have been Diana Fosha (who taught the essence, the heart), Sue Anne Piliero (who taught fierce love and giving myself), Steve Shapiro (who taught clarity and persistence) and Kari Gleiser (who shows how to supervise as he practices, and ways to work with dissociated parts). His teaching brings both head and heart and structures learning according to your needs. He says his clarinet teacher told him 50 years ago – ‘practice does not make perfect: perfect practice makes better.’ He’s kind and gentle but also deliberate, direct and logical.
