Join us to hear more about:

The current research and the growing evidence base for treatments like MDMA-assisted therapy for PTSD.
-
The complex legal and ethical issues surrounding the use of psychedelics in therapy.
-
The importance of understanding and adhering to current laws to safely integrate these therapies into practice.
-
Steps therapists can take to receive specialized training in psychedelic-assisted therapy.
