Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy
An overview of Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy
Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) combines the prescription drug ketamine with psychotherapy to help facilitate personal exploration and conscious awareness of your thoughts. Unconscious material may arise during ketamine sessions that will be used in integration sessions to make sense of your patterns and habits that keep you stuck. If you have been feeling "stuck" for an extended period of time, have tried therapy and not found any progress, or are suffering from a traumatic event(s) that have left you with PTSD, chronic depression and anxiety, you may be a good candidate for KAP. Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy has shown breakthrough clinical results that can help you find the *release* you have been looking for.
What to expect
While each individual is different and results vary, the general feeling that ketamine provides is a "far from" your body effect that feels expansive in nature and allows you to explore your subconscious. With this brief change in perception, new insights can occur that can facilitate deep healing. These effects last about 45 minutes and afterwards, you will have at least an hour to relax, process and integrate your experience with your therapist.
