Interest in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy (PAT) has grown significantly in recent years. Drs. Cirillo and Rojas will introduce participants to mental health treatment using psychedelic-assisted therapy, providing an overview of the field and examining potential benefits for mental health and psychological well-being. Participants will learn how psychedelics are being used in conjunction with psychotherapy to promote healing, insight, and emotional integration.
The presentation will explore ways in which psychedelic-assisted therapies may enhance psychoanalytic approaches, including the softening of ego boundaries and a quieting of habitual thought patterns. The speakers will discuss differences between psycholytic and psychedelic dosing approaches and will compare Western, medically based models with Indigenous ceremonial uses of psychedelics and psychoactive plant medicines.
