MDMA THERAPY NETHERLANDS

Choose from various Psychedelics

Psychedelic therapy is rapidly gaining popularity as a promising approach to treating a variety of mental health conditions. In this blog, we will discuss four major psychedelics that are commonly used in therapeutic settings: MDMA, LSD, psilocybin and hippie flip sessions.

The goal of psychedelic therapy

The right choice for a particular psychedelic depends greatly on the goal of the session, the medical background and the available legal therapies that are available. The different goals vary between treating depression, reducing PTSD symptoms, helping addictions, working on chronic pain and understanding and reducing various anxiety complaints. We will provide the most common psychedelic therapies and the most common goals per psychedelic substance.

MDMA therapy

MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine) is often used in therapeutic settings that include exposure therapy and talk therapy because of its empathogenic properties. It increases the release of serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, leading to feelings of euphoria, connectedness, and emotional openness. This makes it particularly effective for treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), because it helps patients process traumatic memories without being overwhelmed by fear.

LSD therapy

LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) is a powerful hallucinogen that can alter perception, mood, and various cognitive processes. LSD works primarily by activating the 5-HT2A serotonin receptors in the brain. In therapy, LSD can help treat anxiety, depression and addiction by offering patients a new perspective on their problems and breaking through deep-rooted emotional blocks.

Psilocybin therapy

Psilocybin, the active ingredient in magic mushrooms, is converted to psilocin in the body, which then activates serotonin receptors in the brain. Psilocybin therapy has shown promising results in the treatment of depression, anxiety and existential fear in terminal patients. It can provide deep spiritual and emotional insights, leading to long-lasting positive changes in mental health.

Hippie flip session

A hippie flip session combines MDMA and psilocybin, resulting in a unique therapeutic experience. MDMA promotes emotional openness and connection, while psilocybin promotes deep insights and spiritual experiences. This combination can be particularly effective for treating complex traumas and emotional blockages, because it combines the benefits of both substances and creates a synergistic effect.
