Unlocking the Healing Potential of Ketamine TherapY
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is a holistic approach that combines the power of ketamine with therapy. We team up with trusted psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners that will handle all the medical aspects, including eligibility assessment, ketamine prescriptions, and clinical follow-ups. At Meraki Holistic Counseling, a KAP-trained, licensed therapist will be by your side throughout your journey, providing guidance and support from preparation to integration sessions.
With KAP, the combination of ketamine and therapy creates a dynamic synergy that enhances the healing process. By harnessing the power of ketamine, we open the door to new neural pathways in the brain. This can lead to profound breakthroughs as you learn to engage with your emotions, connect with your body's sensations, and develop a supportive relationship with your emotional experiences.
What is ketamine?
Originally utilized as an anesthetic worldwide in the 1960s, ketamine has been found to possess remarkable therapeutic properties that can effectively address the underlying causes of mental conditions such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD. By gently guiding clients into a safe and transformative dissociative state, ketamine treatment has the potential to reactivate synapses and enhance the brain's capacity to rewire thought patterns. Through this process, clients can regain the psychological balance they may have thought was not possible before.

How is ketamine administered?
Ketamine-Assisted Therapy involves self-administration of a pre-prescribed ketamine sublingual lozenge. After dissolving the lozenge, you swish it around your mouth for fifteen minutes. Orally administered ketamine has a rapid onset (15-30 minutes), reaching its peak at around 45 minutes before gradually returning to ordinary consciousness. Our three-hour sessions begin with a check-in and a discussion of your goals for your ketamine journey. Following that, you self-administer the ketamine as directed, and we address any insights or issues that arise during treatment.
What is psychedelic integration?
The importance of integrating the insights and emotions gained from your psychedelic experiences into your everyday life is a key factor. Psychedelic integration is the process of bringing together these newfound understandings, emotions, and attitudes to create a sense of wholeness. It is an essential part of ketamine therapy, allowing us to maximize the impact of your sessions and build upon the progress made in previous sessions.
During the integration phase of ketamine therapy, we delve into what emerged during your journey and utilize it to guide our therapeutic approach. Many profound ideas and meaningful metaphors can arise after a psychedelic experience, offering valuable insights that can be applied to your personal growth.
