Abstract

Hypnodelic therapy would seem to promise much in the field of psychotherapeutics. It is not, however, considered the only way in which therapy with LSD should or can be conducted. It appears to be a useful technique, but many controlled and long-term follow-up studies will be necessary to determine its efficacy and usefulness compared with other forms of psychedelic and psychiatric therapy.
