When LSD Was Used for PsychoanalysisThe forgotten European method of psychedelic therapy.

From the show

Psychedelic Mind

Discover psycholytic therapy, a unique approach to psychotherapy that dominated Europe from the 1950s to the 70s. Unlike the high-dose American model aiming for ego death, this method used repeated, smaller doses of LSD within a psychoanalytic framework. The goal wasn't a mystical journey, but to gently 'loosen' the mind. This allowed patients to remain articulate and work through deep-seated issues with their therapist, maintaining a conscious connection throughout the session.
