Psychedelic-assisted therapy for functional neurological disorder: a theoretical framework and review
Therapeutic Advances in Psychopharmacology (2022)
Theoretical review
Abstract
Proposes a theoretical framework for psychedelic-assisted therapy (including ayahuasca) for functional neurological disorder (FND). Argues that psychedelics' effects on interoception, predictive processing, and default mode network disruption align with FND pathophysiology. Suggests a novel therapeutic application.
