psychedelic therapies

Psychedelic therapies involve the use of substances like psilocybin (found in mushrooms) or MDMA in a controlled clinical setting to treat mental health conditions such as depression, PTSD, or anxiety. These substances can alter perception and consciousness, fostering profound emotional experiences and insights. During therapy sessions, trained professionals guide patients through their experiences, helping them process feelings and perspectives that may lead to healing. Research shows promising results, indicating that these therapies may create lasting positive changes in mental health by promoting emotional release and personal understanding.
