The research renaissance into the neuroscience and therapeutic applications of psychedelics represents one of the most promising initiatives in brain science and neuropsychopharmacology, given the huge unmet needs in the therapeutic areas they aim to treat.
Actually, the fundamental therapeutic benefit is the combination of psychedelic medicine and therapy. The drug then acts as a catalyst for treatment - it is not a treatment in itself. Therapy allows patients to incorporate the sense of unity experienced by the psychedelic consumption into their identities in an enduring way. The compound would then serve as an enhancement to a new psychotherapeutic process, grounded in a relationship-centered approach, that views mental health through a biopsychosocial lens.
