"Psychotherapy outcome research has shown that therapists vary broadly in the clinical results they produce. Part of this effect may be explained by individual variance in certain skills, abilities, and traits – such as emotional regulation skills and quality of adult attachment. Recent clinical research on the effects of psilocybin has shown evidence for rapid and large effects on personality, emotional functioning, and quality of life.

To investigate whether psilocybin affects measures that may be relevant to psychotherapists, 50 attendees of legal psilocybin retreats volunteered to participate in a longitudinal self-report survey to investigate effects on emotional regulation skills and self-rated attachment quality measured before the retreat and at two-weeks follow-up. To explore how psilocybin may affect therapists from their own point of view, experiences of 7 intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy practitioners during and after a psilocybin retreat were recorded and thematically analysed. Their experiences provide some insight in how the potentially therapeutic effects of psilocybin are viewed through the eyes of therapists working in another modality, as well as how their own work could be affected in practice."
