Ketamine is a legal, fast-acting, and research-backed medicine that can help reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and PTSD. It increases neuroplasticity—your brain’s ability to form new, healing pathways—and works quickly, with many people feeling a shift within hours. Unlike daily medications, ketamine’s effects can last for days or even weeks after a single experience.

In this practice, we use only sublingual lozenges (dissolved under the tongue), prescribed and monitored through my partnership with Journey Clinical, a trusted medical provider.

What Does a Ketamine Session Feel Like?

Clients often describe the effects of ketamine as an Experiential Psychedelic Experience—a gentle yet profound shift in perception that opens the door to healing.

During the session, you may feel a sense of distance from your body, as if you’re witnessing your experience from a broader, more compassionate perspective. This expanded experience can help access memories, emotions, and insights that may be difficult to reach in traditional therapy alone.

You'll rest comfortably—reclining with an eye mask and calming music—either in-person or at home. I’ll be present the entire time to offer grounding and support. After the medicine effects wear off (usually after 45–60 minutes), we’ll gently begin the process of integration.

1. Initial Therapy Intake with Me

Before beginning any KAP process, we’ll start with a 60-minute intake session ($220) to explore your history, goals, and readiness for psychedelic work. This is a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive space where you can ask questions, share your story, and feel supported as we determine if this path is right for you.

2. Medical Intake with Journey Clinical

Next, you’ll meet virtually with a clinician from Journey Clinical who will assess your medical and mental health history and determine whether ketamine is appropriate for you.

If approved, you’ll receive:

• A personalized treatment plan

• A small supply of ketamine lozenges (enough for 2 sessions)

• Guidance on how to monitor your vitals and safely self-administer your medication

3. Preparation Session(s)

These sessions help you prepare emotionally, mentally, and physically for the journey ahead. We’ll explore your intentions, create safety around the process, and begin to build trust between us. Preparation is a key part of Integrative Psychedelic Psychotherapy—honoring both your inner wisdom and the medicine’s potential.

4. KAP Dosing Session

A dosing session lasts 1.5 to 3 hours and may take place in person or via telehealth. You’ll take your ketamine lozenge while resting comfortably with support. Though this is often an internal, introspective process, I’ll be there throughout to ensure safety, co-regulation, and emotional containment.

This is your time. You may revisit important memories, hear from inner parts of yourself, or feel long-held emotions begin to release. Every session is unique.

5. Integration Sessions

In the days that follow, we’ll meet to process what arose and translate it into meaningful change. Integration helps you weave insights into your daily life—so that your healing becomes embodied and sustainable.

This is where the long-term impact of KAP really unfolds.

6. Ongoing Medical Monitoring

Journey Clinical will continue to support you with quarterly (or as-needed) check-ins and ketamine prescription refills based on your individualized treatment plan.
