Summary

The principal investigator for this study plans to build upon the psilocybin-assisted therapy intervention used in prior completed trials to conduct an open-label trial of two psilocybin administration sessions combined with psychotherapy to investigate the safety, tolerability, and clinical efficacy of psilocybin-assisted therapy for the treatment of PTSD in US Veterans.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Psilocybin 15mg

Each participant will have a low dose (15 mg) psilocybin session to establish basic skills with session format, psilocybin effects, and continue to build rapport with session facilitators. Given the potential intensity of the psilocybin and the reality of experiencing significant trauma memories, the purpose of the first psilocybin session is to familiarize participants with the drug effects that may be encountered at a higher dose of psilocybin. The first psilocybin session will also allow for assessment of both the suitability of each participant to the study procedures and drug effects, and the safety of administering a higher dose to each participant.

DRUG

Psilocybin 25mg

The second psilocybin session will utilize a high dose (25mg) and take place approximately 2 weeks after the first psilocybin session.
