Why Do We Need New Treatments in Mental Health Care? The Estonian Situation
Doing nothing also has consequences. When existing treatments leave many people behind, exploring safe and evidence-based innovations becomes both a scientific and a moral responsibility.

MDMA-Assisted Therapy for PTSD: Clinical Evidence, Therapeutic Mechanisms, and the Emerging Psychedelic Horizon
This talk explores the current evidence for MDMA-assisted therapy in the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), including findings from Phase 2 and 3 clinical trials involving treatment-resistant populations. It examines the neurobiological mechanisms that may support trauma-focused psychotherapy and contribute to therapeutic outcomes. Drawing on experience from the Cambridge Psychedelic Research Group, the talk also considers the potential of other psychedelic compounds, including psilocybin, for the treatment of trauma-related conditions.

From Trip‑Sitting to Extensive Psychotherapy: The Meaning of Therapy in Psychedelic Interventions
The presentation examines how the nature and scope of interventions involving the use of psychedelics are conceptualised across different treatment approaches. It considers the spectrum described by terms ranging from pharmacotherapy and psychological support to psychedelic‑assisted therapy and extensive structured psychotherapy. The focus is on how these differing frameworks shape the meaning and therapeutic effectiveness of the intervention.
