In celebration of our inspirational CPAT graduate community, we are delighted to host this FREE WEBINAR presented by Dr Gabor Maté (Canada).

TOPIC: Science meets Shamanism – Psychedelic-Assisted Therapies What Matters Now

Shamanic modalities have been used in traditional cultures for hundreds of years and are now increasingly popularized in the industrialized advanced countries as well. Today, there is also great interest and study of the use of man-made psychedelics substances in healing. The principles on which such modalities are based have now been validated by Western scientific approaches such as psychoneuroimmunology and interpersonal neurobiology. While no panacea, shamanic and psychedelic treatments can offer an important and, frequently, transformative, approach to treatment. Clinical pearls here will emerge from the interactive portion of this workshop and include understanding the difference between various modalities for various clinical conditions.

This session will help participants to:

Understand the basic principles of plant medicines and modern psychedelics as healing modalities for physical and mental health conditions (including autoimmune disease and addiction)
Learn the importance of preparation and guidance before, during and after shamanic and psychedelic experiences
Recognise the essential importance of integration following ceremony or psychedelic-assisted therapy sessions

MEDICINAL PSYCHEDELIC TREATMENTS

Psychedelic-assisted treatments offer enormous potential in providing a meaningful alternative to current treatments for mental illness. PTSD is a debilitating condition that affects tens of millions of people worldwide, with many more trauma victims diagnosed with comorbid conditions such as depression, anxiety and eating disorders. In recent clinical trials, MDMA has been shown to produce reliable clinical improvements, restoring patient safety and self-agency even for individuals who have suffered with PTSD for many years, and for whom many treatments have failed.

The wave of clinical psychedelic research and regulatory support is rapidly building, with experts forecasting the availability of psychedelic-assisted treatments in the US and EU within the next 2 to 5 years, subject to positive clinical outcomes in large trials that are currently underway.
