Psychedelic therapy is anticipated to receive its first federal approval in 2024 and at least one U.S. State will begin issuing licenses to psychedelic therapy service providers in 2023. What do these developments mean for psychoanalytic psychotherapy? Could they catalyze or validate psychoanalytic processes and treatment? Does psychedelic therapy threaten the traditional psychoanalyst, or does it present an opportunity for psychoanalysis to modernize?
This symposium will address these topics and more in a timely dialogue with Professor Robin Carhart-Harris and Dr. Donald Moss, followed by audience Q+A.
Professor Carhart-Harris is Director of the new Psychedelics Division within the translational neuroscience center, Neuroscape, at the University of California, San Francisco.
Dr. Donald Moss is the Chair of the American Psychoanalytic Association’s Program Committee.
