Summary

This pilot study will examine the safety, tolerability, acceptability, and efficacy of combination psilocybin + psychotherapy to decrease PTSD symptoms. Participants will be randomized into two different treatment groups, allowing the investigators to directly compare PE augmented with psilocybin and psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

psilocybin

25 mg

BEHAVIORAL

Supportive Therapy

Treatment includes non-directive psychological support across the preparatory, dosing, and integration sessions. Preparatory sessions include psychoeducation regarding psilocybin's subjective effects and establish strategies for psilocybin related support, including boundaries around physical touch. Therapists encourage setting intention for dosing day, and practicing experiential exercises. Integration sessions include processing the participant's experience of their psilocybin administration session. Therapists will support participants in identifying activities for ongoing integration outside of sessions. The standard care for supportive therapy will be modeled in this study.

BEHAVIORAL

Prolonged Exposure Therapy

Prolonged Exposure (PE) Therapy will be conducted for 10 sessions. They will consist of repeated exposures to trauma memories (imaginal exposure) consistent with the manualized protocol for massed exposure therapy. Also consistent with this treatment manual, participants will listen to imaginal exposures and conduct in real life exposures outside of PE sessions for "homework". The standard care for PE therapy will be modeled in this study.
