Pilot Study of Psilocybin-Assisted Group Therapy in Older AIDS Survivors

"Evidence for psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy (PcbAP) continues to accumulate for treating a number of psychiatric conditions. However, the majority of modern trials studying this treatment have been time-, staff-, and resource-intensive. A significant amount of two therapists’ time is required as part of pre-drug preparatory sessions, supervision during, and post-drug integration sessions.¹ As a result, concerns about high costs and limited access have loomed over the potential translation to real-world clinical practice settings if it is approved. PcbAP administered in a group setting is regarded as a potential solution, though until recently, no modern trials examined whether it is feasible, safe, or effective." - See here for an in-depth write-up from Psychedelic Science Review.
