Why pair therapy with ketamine?
Ketamine opens a window of neuroplasticity — a state in which the brain forms new associations more easily. Pairing that window with skilled therapy can accelerate and deepen the work that traditional therapy aims to do.
What a session looks like
You'll meet with your therapist before the dosing experience to set intentions, then receive your chosen modality (typically IM or lozenge) while the therapist supports you throughout. An integration session follows to help translate insights into lasting change.
Best fit for
- Trauma processing (PTSD, abuse, grief)
- Stuck patterns in long-term therapy
- Existential distress, end-of-life care
- Patients ready to do deep psychological work
The three-part structure
- Preparation. A pre-session meeting to set intentions, build trust with your therapist, and review what to expect.
- Dosing. The ketamine session itself — usually IM or lozenge — held in a calm, supported environment with your therapist present throughout.
- Integration. A follow-up session within a week to translate insights, emotions, and memories from the dosing experience into concrete change.
Why integration is non-negotiable
The dosing experience is just the doorway. The real change happens in integration — the unhurried work of making sense of what came up, identifying patterns, and choosing what to do differently. Skipping integration is the most common reason ketamine’s benefits fade.

What it costs
