Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is a unique, therapeutic method currently being used to help ease symptoms of various forms of depression, anxiety, PTSD, chronic pain, addiction, and obsessive compulsive disorders. KAP is a hybrid treatment approach, utilizing ketamine as a catalyst to enhance and deepen the therapeutic process.

The ketamine xperience allows for he relaxation of our usual thinking pattersn and attachments to stories often leading to an interruption of negative cylces and preoccupations and a sense of relational openness. In many ways, ketamine can act as a “short cut” through our habituated patterns of protection and defenses, allowing us to discover and support what lies beneath.
