About the event
The field of psychedelic-assisted therapy largely unregulated and tends to attract evangelists who view psychedelics as a panacea, often sacrificing safety and therapeutic rigor for expediency. In South Africa, there are currently no formal training programs for professionals offering evidence-based guidelines around best practices. Join us for the first CPD-accredited training seminar on psychedelic-assisted therapy for South African psychologists and registered counsellors.
