Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy

What is Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy?

Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) combines the powerful and evidence supported therapeutic effects of ketamine with the guidance and support of licensed psychotherapists. Administered in a controlled setting under the supervision of trained professionals, ketamine facilitates deep introspection, emotional processing, and neural rewiring – paving the way for breakthroughs in treatment-resistant conditions such as depression and PTSD.  

What does the Ketamine Psychotherapy process look like?

Medical and psychological intakes and at least one preparation session are conducted before treatment to provide education and assist in intention setting for your experience. Integration sessions held afterward further help to solidify neural changes and apply your experience to your daily life and reality. 

Depending on your goals, sessions range from psycholytic (lower-dose) to psychedelic (higher-dose) experiences. During a KAP session, you will be gently guided into a relaxed state and encouraged to explore your intention with lowered cognitive barriers. An eye mask and music, provided by your clinician, will further aid in your relaxation and introspection. Ketamine's unique therapeutic effects induce a dissociative state of consciousness, allowing you to access and address underlying traumas, negative thought patterns, and unresolved emotions with greater clarity and insight. Our experienced clinicians provide a safe and supportive environment, guiding you in exploring your inner self and integrating newfound insights into your life.
