Psychedelics 101: What Clinicians Need to Know About the Current Therapeutic Use of Psychedelics for Addictions, PTSD & More.

*This presentation is no longer eligible for the 1 CE credit*

This professional development webinar is designed to educate the behavioral health specialist about studies that are currently being explored around the use of psychedelic assisted psychotherapy. The unintended consequences of the buzz around psychedelics is that people who suffer from a variety of mental health issues are taking it upon themselves to do their own psychedelic psychotherapy given that these substances are not readily or legally available.

It is important now more than ever for clinicians to have a working knowledge of psychedelics, the latest research and important implications for the general public attempting to address their mental health issues on their own.
