Description

For millennia, cultures around the world have embraced mind-altering substances to catalyze healing. Western psychotherapy has generally resisted the healing potential of such substances, but the FDA has lately approved clinical trials using MDMA—also known as Ecstasy, or Molly—to treat PTSD. Psychotherapists have a major role to play in these treatments, by helping clients process the healing shifts in consciousness that can occur on the drug.
