Books / other resources on psychedelic therapy

Can anyone recommend any good books / talks / resources on psychedelics in therapy?
We watched the Gooplab doc on Netflix and I was actually surprised by how good it was after all the negative press I have read about Goop in general.

my wife watched it, I thought there was too much proximity and touching and the light was way too bright, but I only glanced once or twice - was happier to read a book.
I think it is important to have such shows even if I don't like them, as they "normalize" psychedelics in familiar terms like other goop.

I was pleased that they were normalising it in a way. I think it would be better if these things were legal and this kind of normalising is a step in that direction.
I also genuinely think psychedelics can help people, so the more research / treatment happens the better.
I don't think I'd have wanted all of that physical contact, but my wife found it very important. Everyone's different. Me and her are both interested in the healing side, and more specifically how to help / guide people through dealing with specific issues.

Don't know if this is relevant for you, but here's the wikipedia page on Leary's psilocybin experiments with prisoners in the sixties. Ralph Metzner's and Hollingshead's books about it are listed in the references at the bottom.
