sounds to me like a (slight) combination of mushrooms and acid. they have, to some degree, almost all of those characteristics.

The visual phase is characterized by open-eye visuals, closed-eye visuals, and dreamlike sequences. Objects may be seen as distorted, projecting tracers, or having moving colors or textures. With the eyes closed, extremely detailed and vivid geometric and fractal visions may be seen.

acid.

Subjective reports often include a movie-like recollection of earlier life experiences as well as dreamlike sequences with symbolism of one's present or anticipated future.

Other effects in the visionary phase may include laughing, sensations of euphoria or fear, and temporary short-term memory impairment. The visionary phase usually ends after 1-4 hours, after which the introspective phase begins.

both, the latter half more mushrooms. (I've never gotten very introspective on acid)

The introspective phase is typically reported to bring elevated mood, a sense of calm and euphoria, and a distinct intellectual and emotional clarity. Subjects often report being able to accomplish deep emotional and intellectual introspection into psychological and emotional concerns

again, moreso mushrooms (for me) as that's the only thing that's made me think in quite that way.
as far as getting a grasp on other addictions, I think this would work in the same respect that acid/mushrooms (moreso mushrooms, from my experience) would. once the introspective phase hits and you see everything from a "3rd person" perspective it becomes a lot easier to see what you're doing wrong and what you need to do to help yourself.
in short, I think therapeutic use would be about the same as if somebody, with self help in mind, ate some mushrooms.
as far as growing it goes.... have at it, and send me some
