Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy
Here’s how it works:
Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is an emergent modality that uses an altered state induced by ketamine to help participants deepen their work in psychotherapy. KAP is a practice that allows participants to gain access to the “felt-sense” of emotional content and difficult unconscious material in a rapid and powerful way, allowing the participant to open up a doorway to allow that content to be accessed, worked with, and processed with the assistance of a highly-trained therapist. Ketamine is a powerful catalyst to allow inner access to difficult and often “stuck” material and emotions, and the psychotherapy allows the participant to actively examine, work with, and effectively process that material for long-lasting change, often far more quickly than traditional talk-oriented psychotherapies.
Ketamine has a rapid onset of quieting the inner critic.
Many of us are so accustomed to living with our inner critic, that we cannot imagine a life without him or her.
KAP creates an experience of being held and safe without an inner critic directing client performance. The clinicians hold space to allow the clients to learn the process of letting go and becoming more comfortable with new ways of experiencing self.
Ketamine provides access to things that are normally difficult to access, and it give us the ability to see from a different perspective.
A shift in perspective opens a completely new set of possibilities.– Satsuki Shibuya
