In mice, the psychedelic effects of psilocybin and antidepressant effects are actually separate. They have developed analogues of psilocybin which have antidepressant effects but not the psychedelic effects.
In theory, blocking 5-ht2a/c receptors would block some of the psychedelic effects, but (if recent studies are true) they may not block the antidepressant effects.
