Ketamine-Assisted Therapy (KAP/KAT)

Our 5-week Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) program is recommended for those exploring ketamine as psychedelic medicine for mental health relief. Ketamine enhances psychological flexibility and effectively treats depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions. Research shows that the treatment of mental health conditions requires several ketamine treatments, administered weekly, for more cumulative, long-lasting effects.

Previous participants reported reduced symptoms on assessment scales (PHQ-9 and HAM-A) and increased connection to self and others.

Conditions treated: Ketamine-assisted therapy has strong evidence for major depressive disorder and treatment-resistant depression, support benefits for acute suicidal ideation and PTSD, with emerging evidence for anxiety and substance use disorders. We see strong evidence in our own practices for childhood trauma and the ability to open up any negative beliefs one is holding on to in response to our environments and life experiences. Ketamine is also effective in every day problem solving by opening mental blocks, enhancing creativity and increasing cognitive flexibility.

Apply

  • Ketamine is a safe and well-known medicine and currently the only legal psychedelic being used in the United States as an innovative treatment for depression, PTSD, addiction, and some forms of anxiety. It has also been utilized successfully in managing acute and chronic pain conditions due to its analgesic properties.

  • Ketamine has rapidly-acting antidepressant and mood-enhancing effects, which can begin to take effect within 1-2 hrs. after treatment and last for up to 2 weeks. It works by blocking the brain’s NMDA receptors as well as by stimulating AMPA receptors, which are thought to help form new synaptic connections and boost neural circuits that regulate stress and mood. Ketamine has also been shown to enhance overall neuroplasticity for lasting symptom improvement.

  • At lower doses, ketamine can disrupt negative feelings and preoccupations and help the brain create new, healthier patterns. Many describe it as a mental reset. Studies show that 50-70% of patients being prescribed ketamine for depression or anxiety experience a significant reduction in symptoms. Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic and participants have a high likelihood of experiencing dissociative effects during the first 2 hours following ketamine administration. Generally, the major impact occurs in the first hour, with full recovery to baseline by 3 hours. Participants may experience an altered mental state, with imaginative stream of associations, sensations and imagery as experienced with psychedelics. Each person reacts in different ways, and we cannot guarantee a specific experience. Our therapists are fully equipped working with non-ordinary states of consciousness and are experienced in dealing effectively with this state. All participants will be prepared for the benefits of these states of being.

  • No experience with psychedelic medicines or Ketamine is necessary for admission. All applications begin with a free screening call with a therapist to determine if Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is a good fit for you.  We provide all the preparation that is necessary for safe, healing journeys.

  • Our medical provider will prescribe Ketamine to you after the virtual, medical intake. The medication will be sent to you home address. Other arrangements may be made on an individual basis, e.g. if there is concern for abuse potential. In that case, ketamine may be sent to us.
