Course Overview
In this course, participants will gain an in-depth understanding of MDMA-assisted therapy, its theoretical underpinnings, and its practical applications. The course is divided into three sessions, each focusing on a different aspect of the therapy.
The first session covers the fundamentals, including the therapy's history, rationale, and empirical status. The second session delves into the hands-on aspects, such as preparation, navigation, facilitation, and integration of the altered state to maximize benefits and minimize risks. The third session is a video-based case analysis of the host's own MDMA-assisted therapy, highlighting core elements of the treatment modality and its impact on professional development.
Throughout the course, participants will learn from the host's extensive experience as a psychedelic researcher, therapist, and educator. The course is designed to be informative and engaging, focusing on providing evidence-based knowledge and practical insights. Whether participants are curious about the potential benefits and pitfalls of MDMA-assisted therapy or are already familiar with the modality, this course offers a nuanced, science-driven, and comprehensive overview of the subject.
