About Psilocybin Therapy Toronto

Psilocybin Therapy Toronto is a promising frontier in mental health, but it’s still not widely available in Canada. A few therapists in the city are now offering it, and some advocates are pushing to legalize certain drugs to improve access and research opportunities.

At Field Trip, a new kid on the block in the Entertainment District, clients relax in a room that looks like a West Elm showroom-meets upscale yoga studio. Then a psychiatrist or psychologist gives them a dose of ketamine, which has been used as an anesthetic during surgeries and to treat treatment-resistant depression, anxiety and PTSD.

Fast Mushroom Delivery Canada: What to Expect

A lot of people swear it works. But a CBC reporter is skeptical and wants to find out whether microdosing magic mushrooms really is a mental-health treatment.

The clinic, which calls itself a “psychedelic-enhanced psychotherapy” service, is run by a group of psychiatrists and therapists who’ve been trained to administer the drug safely and guide patients through an experience that can last for up to four hours. After a preparation counseling session, during which a therapist helps clients establish their goals and receive psychoeducation, patients go to a special treatment room, which Levy says has been designed “quite carefully to be aesthetically comfortable, inviting and bright.”

Once the psilocybin takes effect, a therapist sits with the client and guides them through a process of “reviewing the past, understanding what’s important and finding meaning in it.” This can be emotional and distressing at times, but the sessions have proven powerful and life-changing for many patients.
