dc.description.abstractAlcohol use disorder (AUD) is a prevalent and debilitating condition with significant public health implications. Traditional treatment approaches achieve limited success which has necessitated the exploration of alternative modalities. Psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy (PAP) has gained recent attention for promising results in several clinical trials, however it’s efficacy and mechanisms of action remain underexplored. This capstone reviews the existing literature pertaining to PAP as a treatment protocol for AUD while focusing on current research exploring the theories of mechanistic action. Primarily the intention is to explore whether PAP reduces problematic drinking among populations with a diagnosis of AUD.
