Open to 250 Participants by Application Only

Dive into a world where past wounds are healed, barriers to love are dismantled, and vibrant, fulfilling relationships await — facilitated by the therapeutic use of MDMA, commonly referred to as ecstasy or “the love drug.”

This psychoactive substance has gained recognition for its remarkable capacity to amplify empathy, diminish fear, foster connection and emotional vulnerability, and promote healing from past traumas.

New and ongoing research into its potential therapeutic uses is part of the paradigm shift currently occurring in psychedelic-assisted therapy. MDMA has gained increasing recognition and acceptance as part of this broader movement — promising a faster, more profound way to address relationship and psychological challenges.

MDMA is on a swift and encouraging path toward decriminalization. It’s recently been legalized for therapeutic use in Australia, and the United States is on the cusp of legalizing MDMA for therapeutic use.

This shift reflects a growing acknowledgment of its benefits, particularly in couples therapy. As legal barriers begin to lessen — thanks in part to rigorous research and advocacy by organizations like MAPS (the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies) — you can be at the forefront of the MDMA therapy movement, helping couples (and yourself!) find a new avenue toward healthy, heart-centered, deeper relationships.

Psychotherapist and MDMA pioneer Jonathan Robinson is renowned for his visionary approach and deep understanding of interpersonal dynamics. His expertise is rooted in years of clinical experience and a deep commitment to helping couples navigate the complexities of their relationships. 

He wants you to know that regardless of the current state of your relationship, or that of your clients, there is a step-by-step path to a better one. By fostering a safe and controlled environment for emotional exploration, MDMA therapy enables couples to transcend long-standing barriers, heal from past hurts, and rediscover the joy and love that brought them together in the first place... quickly.

MDMA’s unique properties facilitate a level of communication and vulnerability that many find inaccessible through traditional means.

The MDMA Couples Facilitator Training is designed to equip you with the skills and knowledge to offer safe, supportive, and profoundly impactful sessions for couples seeking to heal and/or deepen their connections.

As a facilitator of MDMA-assisted couples work, you’ll join a community of professionals at the forefront of the psychedelic-assisted healing movement, becoming a part of a new wave of therapeutic care.

This training is more than just an addition to your professional qualifications, it’s an invitation to be at the vanguard of the future of mental health care, relationship therapy, and the broader field of psychedelic medicine.

WHAT SETS OUR MDMA TRAINING PROGRAM APART?

Here's what makes our program uniquely impactful:

• Specialized Focus on Couples: Unlike general psychedelic therapy training, our curriculum is specifically tailored to address the dynamics, challenges, and opportunities unique to couples therapy. This specialization ensures that you’ll be equipped to foster deeper emotional connections and resolve conflicts within the context of a romantic relationship, making our program distinctively effective for practitioners aiming to work with couples.
• Led by Jonathan Robinson: Our program is led by psychotherapist Jonathan Robinson — a frequent guest of Oprah’s, and author of the acclaimed book Ecstasy as Medicine — whose pioneering work with MDMA-assisted couples therapy has earned him global recognition. Learning from a leader of such caliber provides an opportunity to gain deep knowledge of the therapeutic potential of MDMA for healing relationships, directly from one of its foremost experts. Jonathan’s guidance ensures that you’ll not only become more proficient in the technical aspects of working with couples in MDMA-assisted sessions, but you’ll gain a deeper sense of wisdom and compassion that’s necessary for this sensitive work.
• Learn to Facilitate Remote Sessions: Our program uniquely focuses on learning how to facilitate MDMA couples sessions remotely via Zoom, a methodology that Jonathan evolved during the pandemic and which he discovered worked more effectively than in-person sessions. He has found that being in a familiar environment can increase the efficacy of this specialized method of therapy for clients as they often have better results when they’re in the comfort and safety of their own space. This innovative approach has the added benefits of minimizing any concerns around transference and may also significantly reduce liability for practitioners.
• Leading-Edge Curriculum: Our curriculum is at the forefront of the latest scientific research and clinical practices in MDMA-assisted therapy. Under Jonathan’s leadership, the program integrates innovative psychological approaches and techniques tailored specifically for enhancing relationship dynamics.

Curriculum Details

Live weekly Teaching Sessions are every Thursday at 9:00am Pacific. Live Integration Sessions and Guest Faculty Workshops are each on one separate Tuesday per month at 9:00am Pacific.

Unit 1: Foundation Teachings for MDMA Facilitation (September 10 to October 8)

 

In this opening unit, you’ll gain an overview of how to work with MDMA, including how to successfully handle potential legal, medical, and ethical problems when working with this powerful medicine. We’ll discuss a bit of history about how MDMA has been used and its potential for treating a variety of challenges.

We’ll also explore different protocols that individuals and couples have used when therapeutically working with this medicine. Finally, we’ll cover simple methods and character traits that make working with this medicine especially helpful.

During Unit 1, you’ll learn:

• Three different approaches for working with this medicine therapeutically
• The history of how MDMA has been used, and what science has discovered
• How to avoid potential legal, ethical, and medical issues when working with this drug
• How to communicate with clients in a way that creates rapport while gathering the information you need to know
• Supplements you or your clients can take to avoid challenging side effects
• Important safety protocols everyone needs to know about MDMA

Unit 2: Working With Individuals (October 10 to October 31)

 

In this unit, you’ll gain the essential knowledge and skills for effective therapeutic work with individuals using MDMA. We’ll explore a variety of therapeutic approaches designed to facilitate the release of trauma and address anxiety or depression.

The curriculum will cover the influence of spiritual beliefs, problematic beliefs, and blind spots, helping you identify how you can help clients and friends overcome limitations.

You’ll learn strategies for managing challenging scenarios that may arise in future sessions, as well as straightforward integration techniques, which can help your clients convert their insights into valuable changes in their daily lives.

During Unit 2, you’ll learn:

• The importance of knowing what a successful outcome looks like
• The value of “following” the medicine, and exactly what that means
• Therapeutic methods that work well in treating individuals faced with various challenges
• How to help people overcome beliefs and conditioning that no longer serve them
• How to successfully handle problems that can arise when working with a client
• How to help people integrate what they learn from a session into their daily life

Unit 3: Communication, Love, Understanding & Empathy (November 7 to November 21)

 

Good relationships are built on a foundation of communication, love, understanding, and empathy — or CLUE for short. If couples are at odds, they need a CLUE as to how to repair their relationships.

Honest Communication is a foundation, but only if practiced with a caring heart — or Love. Understanding one’s partner is next. Without understanding, Empathy and love can’t blossom, and everyone wants empathy for the difficulties they face.

By helping couples understand the methods and concepts that lead to CLUE, they can begin to repair their hurts and lack of connection. Of course, MDMA often makes this process quicker and easier than the normally slow and difficult process of couples counseling.

During Unit 3, you’ll learn:

• How to better understand your partner or your client
• What couples do wrong that inevitably leads to a lack of connection
• How MDMA can facilitate quick and effective improvements in communication
• Techniques that facilitate care, understanding, and empathy
• Why men and women are so different, and how that understanding can reduce conflict
• How to help couples get clear on exactly what they want (and don’t want)

Unit 4: Love Languages, Love Enhancers & Love Destroyers (December 3 to December 19)

 

Falling in love is relatively easy — thus it’s referred to as “falling” rather than “climbing.” But staying in love with a romantic partner requires skill, specific knowledge, and awareness of what typically gets in the way.

In this unit, you’ll explore how to make use of the 5 love languages concept, along with the Gottman Institute’s insights into how to enhance love on a regular basis. You’ll also explore the 4 main destroyers of love and how to teach yourself and your clients to avoid them.

You’ll look at simple ways you can quickly trigger loving feelings in yourself, your partner, and the couples you’re working with. Finally, you’ll discover how to accomplish all this in a short time while working with couples.

During Unit 4, you’ll learn:

• How to get couples to quickly connect with each other in a deeply intimate way
• Twelve questions that always lead to deep and intimate conversations and healing
• How to use the “5 love languages” concept to consistently increase loving connections
• Why the revealing of feelings and wants is so critical, and how to do it
• How MDMA sessions may be used to facilitate more love and less conflict going forward

Unit 5: Sex, Fun, Failure & Freshness (January 7 to January 23)

 

Most couples start off with a good sexual spark, but it often fades and leads to couples feeling like they’ve failed. In our Western culture, the whole subject of sex is ripe with shame, blame, and a lack of communication.

In this section of the course, you’ll explore different sexual styles, how to add sexual spark into a relationship, and how to heal past sexual wounds. You’ll discuss how MDMA can make the healing of challenging issues easier and even fun to fix.

You’ll also examine the role of novelty and, potentially, alternative styles of relationships as a way to add fun and spark to a couple’s physical intimacy. Lastly, you’ll look at how to heal past sexual wounds that may be preventing sexual or emotional connection with your partner.

During Unit 5, you’ll learn:

• The 5 erotic styles — and how they can be used to help heal and ignite sexual spark
• Why most couples struggle with sex, and how to overcome their sense of failure
• How to heal past sexual wounds and trauma that interfere with intimacy
• Alternative relationships and sexual patterns and how to best explore them
• The importance of nonsexual fun and play, and how to create it when it’s missing

Unit 6: Using Relationships to Work on Yourself (January 28 to February 13)

 

In this unit, we’ll explore how to use a relationship to work on yourself. Many couples focus on trying to change their partner. Of course, this rarely works and can lead to mutual anger and distrust.

The better option is to use the “stuff” that comes up in relationships to heal childhood wounds. Such wounds often show up as intense reactions to your partner’s behavior — often called “triggers.” To work on yourself, it’s important to know your specific relationship triggers, beliefs, expectations, and neurotic tendencies in detail. From such awareness, it’s possible to overcome any self-defeating emotions and behaviors that affect all your relationships, as well as your overall happiness.

During Unit 6, you’ll learn:

• How focusing on changing your partner often leads to anger and distrust, and why it’s a path to avoid
• How to use the challenges in your relationship as opportunities to heal childhood wounds
• How to identify your personal “triggers” that can be activated by intense reactions to your partner’s actions
• Insights into your own beliefs, expectations, and neurotic tendencies that shape your reactions
• Strategies for overcoming self-defeating emotions and behaviors, thereby improving your relationships and overall happiness

Unit 7: The Art of Repair, Agreements & Negotiation (February 18 to March 6)

 

The “currency” in relationships is trust. Without trust, a loving relationship soon falters.

In this section, we’ll explore how to repair broken trust, and then move forward to creating greater trust in the future. The methods to mend a broken heart and build renewed trust involve creating mutually satisfying solutions to relationship challenges.

In this unit, we’ll explore how to fashion good solutions to ongoing problems, and how MDMA may be used in sessions to facilitate such results. We’ll discuss the four key ingredients to repairing broken trust, and how short-term agreements that occur in sessions can lead to long-term changes.

Finally, we’ll examine how to use the “problem-solving question” method to solve previously unsolvable problems.

During Unit 7, you’ll learn:

• The 4 steps to repairing broken trust, and why they often are not followed
• How to build trust using the art of effective agreements
• Why couples have trouble solving problems, and the one question that can make finding solutions easy
• How MDMA-assisted therapy, when used in conjunction with short-term agreements, can work miracles
• The importance of forgiveness, and how it can be achieved within therapeutic sessions

Unit 8: Creating Consistent Change (March 11 to March 27)

 

Taking MDMA is relatively easy. Working on issues with a partner while on MDMA is a bit more challenging. Yet, the hardest thing to achieve is creating ongoing and consistent change in a relationship after the session is over.

In this section of the training, you’ll discuss three key ways that couples can stay consistently motivated to achieve ongoing positive change. You’ll explore what gets in the way of positive change, and how to ensure that what a couple learns in a therapeutic session is practiced and reinforced.

You’ll get a chance to apply motivational methods in your own relationships so you can become more familiar with how they work. You’ll also look at how to coach couples in a way that provides ongoing support in both their communication and behavioral patterns.

During Unit 8, you’ll learn:

• The 3 most powerful ways to help others (or yourself) stay consistently motivated to change
• Beliefs and ideas that get in the way of change, and how to overcome them
• What successful couples coaching looks like, and how to structure it
• How to implement and reinforce the most important communication tools
• How to help couples stay in a place of love with each other

Unit 9: Learning From Case Studies (April 1 to April 29)

 

After many weeks of learning key concepts, techniques, and watching demonstrations of how to help couples through MDMA-assisted therapy, you’ll have the opportunity to review actual case studies of previous sessions.

In this unit, Jonathan will provide a play-by-play analysis of a past session, describing why he did what he did at each moment as the session unfolded. You’ll see how he subtly guided the couple into having a proper mental set, then proceeded to lead the couple to deeper levels of communication and healing.

At the same time, you’ll notice how Jonathan held the session agenda lightly, and allowed for the arising of whatever shows up in the moment. The interplay between methods, structure, and spontaneous arisings will help you get a feel for the pace and subtlety needed in MDMA sessions with couples.

Finally, plenty of time will be allocated for discussing alternative approaches to the interventions that Jonathan displays during his session.

During Unit 9, you’ll learn:

• How creating initial rapport, even over Zoom, is achieved through body position, questions, and a good mental set
• The importance of the therapist’s vulnerability, honesty, and methods for creating an environment for healing
• The order in which things should occur for the deepest healing to take place
• How specific communication games can be set up and successfully engaged
• How to gently bring a session to a close so that both partners feel validated and successful
