Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) and Integration (Clinical)

Description

Clinical KAP Sessions

Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is a holistic modality
in which ketamine is used as a complement to psychotherapy
to help eligible patients experience more frequent
breakthroughs and sustained improvement in symptoms. I
take on the psychotherapy portion of the experience, while
Journey Clinical’s medical team supports you on all medical
aspects. This includes determining eligibility, developing
a custom treatment plan, prescribing the medicine, and
monitoring outcomes.
Below is more information about KAP to help you navigate
if it may be a good fit for you.

What is Ketamine?
Ketamine is a legal, safe, and effective medicine used to treat a variety of mental
health conditions, including depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Ketamine has rapidly-acting antidepressant and mood-enhancing effects, which can begin to take effect
within 1-2 hrs. after treatment. It works by blocking the brain’s NMDA receptors as
well as by stimulating AMPA receptors, which are thought to help form new synaptic
connections and boost neural circuits that regulate stress and mood. Ketamine has
also been shown to enhance overall neuroplasticity for lasting symptom improvement.
Ketamine can be administered in a variety of ways, including IV infusion,
intramuscular injection, via nasal spray and using sublingual lozenges. In my work with
Journey Clinical we only use the sublingual lozenge form.
