Experts in MDMA-assisted therapy for PTSD overwhelmingly endorse the need for training, standardization, equity, and access, while identifying impediments in national approval processes and anticipating spill-over effects in clinical settings. A survey of 68 researchers and clinicians worldwide gathered opinions on clinical practices, training, and regulation. The findings call for science-informed policy development, active regulatory involvement, and international cooperation to incorporate MDMA-assisted therapy into European mental healthcare, particularly for PTSD treatment.
