Review for Multidisciplinary Association For Psychedelic Studies (MAPS), San Jose, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I was fortunate to meet Rick and his wonderful team in Jordan in the summer of 2009. I then helped channel MAPS through their Jordanian MDMA assisted psychotherapy project, reflecting the importance of creating some minor protocol changes to meet the various cultural, religious and ideological challenges that may be faced to overcome any differences that may have been previously conceived. MAPS have been extremely determined and successful in moving this particular project forward. I hope that they can overcome any challenges or obstacles in the future to help raise awareness and move psychedelic research forward for the greater good of mankind.

Ways to make it better...

The subject presented isn't a taboo. Unfortunately, some clinicians still hold their negative solid views about the use of therapeutic psychedelics. I'm not able to share my experiences with MAPS to some of the daily minds i interact with.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

Political oppositions
