LOS ANGELES, May 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month in the U.S., a time dedicated to paying tribute to the generations of Asian American and Pacific Islanders (AAPI) who have enriched America’s history and are currently progressing towards a successful future.
This AAPI Heritage Month, Psychable, the trusted, comprehensive online community for people who are interested in legally exploring or offering psychedelic-assisted therapy, celebrates the work of founder, CEO and AAPI community member Jemie Sae Koo for her work in educating the public on and expanding access to holistic and alternative treatments such as psychedelic therapies across the country.
Sae Koo launched Psychable in April 2021 with co-founder Matt Zemon, a pair united in a belief that psychedelic medicines combined with therapy can provide meaningful and transformative treatments for not only those struggling with a myriad of ailments, but also those looking to transform their lives for the better. With both having transformative experiences with psychedelic medicine that led them to each pursue a Master of Science Degree in Psychology with a focus on Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy, they’ve curated a team of experts with deep experience to lead the Psychable community to support all phases of the journey from information to integration.
A serial entrepreneur with a passion for building companies rooted in corporate social responsibility, Sae Koo combines her psychology knowledge and personal transformative experiences with psychedelics as medicines. With more than 15 years of experience as a successful entrepreneur, Sae Koo has built well-known start-ups from the ground up and developed initiatives for major global brands such as Amazon, Disney, Toyota, and Taco Bell. Jemie has been a well-respected figure in the API community having been involved on boards such as the Asian Professional Exchange (APEX) and served as the liaison for the API community and representative for a number of elected officials in California.
“Through all my time in the corporate world, the creation of Psychable is particularly special for me, as it merges my life’s passions of expanding access to different alternative ways to healing and optimization to help Americans live healthier, happier lives, and to create a thriving business that gives back to its community and to the indigenous communities where a lot of these types of medicines are from,” said Sae Koo, CEO, Psychable. “The launch would not have been possible without the incredible support we have received from various business, health and AAPI communities along the way. In light of the alarming rise in incidents against the AAPI community, it is important for us to speak up on the injustices that all marginalized communities have been suffering for too long. Racism and intolerance have no place in our world. Let us all commit to advancing racial justice and equity for all and work towards a safer and kinder world. For this AAPI Heritage Month, I’m so proud to celebrate the contributions of my colleagues, peers, and Psychable practitioners of AAPI descent who have been working tirelessly to help Americans of any background live healthier, happier lives.”
