FromĀ VolteFace Magazine: MDMA-assisted psychotherapy can play a major role in helping people heal from the effectsĀ of trauma.

“The results really are incredible and Iā€™ve had the privilege of watching the tapes of the sessions and seeing that the healing process is about understanding your trauma and understanding why youā€™re acting how you are. Itā€™s not about feeling like youā€™re this messed up person who wasnā€™t tough enough. And it really is essential that the healing process comes from the individual and thatā€™s why the methodology of our MDMA therapy is so powerful ā€“ two therapists provide a safe space to allow the individual to lead the session and use, what the therapist describes as, their ā€˜inner-healing intelligenceā€™. Itā€™s a very empowering process; in large part, I think, because the healing is coming from within; someone else isnā€™t fixing you.”
