Psilocybin therapy is truffle therapy
Here in the Netherlands, psilocybin therapy Actually, it’s called truffle therapy since psilocybin is still illegal, but truffles that contain psilocybin are not included. To be more precise, it’s not even psilocybin that causes the psychedelic effect; it’s psilocin.

After the conversion of psilocybin to psilocin, this psychedelic substance gains its hallucinogenic effects. Additionally, psilocybin closely resembles serotonin and will exhibit activity at many of the same serotonergic receptors. Many of the therapeutic applications of psilocybin/psilocin are aimed at disorders in which a low serotonin level plays a role. Additionally, higher doses of psilocybin can contribute to new neural connections in the brain, thereby helping to treat neurodegenerative diseases (in part).
Ongoing studies on psilocybin
The number of studies on psilocybin has been on the rise for years, even though it is not a patented drug. This fact clearly shows that the potential of psilocybin is enormous. The currently ongoing studies are using psilocybin in:
- Alcoholism (AUD, alcohol use disorder)
- Nicotine addiction
- Opioid addiction
- Major depressive disorder
- treatment-resistant depression
- Anxiety symptoms
- Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
- Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD)
- Anorexia
- Alzheimer's
- Parkinson's
- Migraine
- Cluster headache

The results are promising
The results of the pilots and the already completed studies are promising and effective. The studies being conducted are solely focused on the effects of psilocybin. We use psilocybin sessions in combination with lifestyle coaching so that we can address health in multiple areas simultaneously. Here at triptherapy we can only provide anecdotal evidence regarding the effects of our psilocybin sessions. We are achieving good results in the first place in depression treatments with psilocybin. Additionally, we are also seeing good results in addictions, burnout, anxiety disorders, and low self-esteem.
