About Psychedelic Assisted Therapy
Both talk therapy and psychedelics can be used to treat severe anxiety, depression, PTSD and other mood disorders. Pairing these treatments together may lead to even better outcomes.
Psychedelic assisted therapy is often used for treatment-resistant diagnoses. Psychedelics work by interacting with neurotransmitter receptors in the brain. Psychedelics are administered at a low dose under close medical supervision. Psychedelics have been shown to relax the mind, allowing patients to disengage. Studies have shown that psychedelic treatment, combined with psychotherapy, can be successful in reducing anxiety and depression.
What to Expect
The psychedelic experience is unique to each person, but many patients cite feeling disconnected, as if they are observing their mind and body from outside versus from within. It is often described as a calming experience.
Therapy is a partnership and a safe place. During your initial appointment, we will discuss the reason for your visit and collaborate to identify your treatment goals. Our priority is to offer a therapeutic environment that is compassionate, empathic, and safe. While building a foundation of trust so we can work with you to achieve your goals as quickly as possible.
