Integrating Psychedelics with Evidence-Based Therapy

Integrating Psychedelics with Evidence-Based Therapy is a 12-week reading and study group for individuals interested in evidence-based therapy and its application in psychedelic therapy. The course is designed for clinicians, graduate students, researchers, or the public who have a background in the scientific understanding of clinical interventions.

The course includes weekly discussion groups based on assigned readings that primarily come from academic literature. Topics will range from various evidenced-based therapies such as ACT, MI, CBT, and DBT to psychedelics like psilocybin, ketamine, and MDMA and their application in various clinical populations.

The course also critiques the current state of psychedelic therapy research and its ethical concerns. By the end of the course, participants will have a comprehensive understanding of the history, basic components, safety concerns, and pharmacology of psychedelic therapy, as well as the role of psychotherapy in psychedelic treatment.

This course runs multiple times per year.
