Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)
Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy is an integrative, trauma-informed approach that pairs the therapeutic benefits of ketamine with skilled psychotherapeutic support. Within a safe and supportive setting, ketamine’s psychedelic properties allow for deeper emotional access, expanded awareness, and the potential for meaningful breakthroughs—especially when held within a long-term therapeutic relationship.
Eli offers guidance throughout the process, from preparation through integration, helping you navigate your experience with care and intention. All medical aspects are managed in partnership with Journey Clinical, whose team handles initial screening, treatment planning, prescribing, and medical follow-up.
Before beginning treatment, clients are screened by a medical provider to ensure KAP is a safe and appropriate fit.

Let’s turn the space between you into a path forward.
Arguments don’t usually start with yelling—they start with a silence, a glance, a feeling that something small just turned into something too big. Maybe it’s been a while since you’ve felt like true partners. Maybe your conversations feel scripted, or tense, or like you’re always walking a tightrope, waiting for the next misstep. What you’ve lived through—individually and as a couple—matters. It shapes how you connect, how you protect yourselves, and how you love. Therapy doesn’t promise easy answers, but it does offer a space to slow down, feel safer, and rebuild something steady—together.
In Weekly Sessions, You’ll Begin to Discover How To:
-
Build a more compassionate relationship with every part of yourself—even the ones that feel messy or hard to love.
-
Create a recovery path that feels steady, meaningful, and truly livable—not something you’re just surviving.
-
Repair the relational wounds that keep showing up, and make space for deeper, more authentic connection.
-
Learn to anchor safety in both body and mind through grounded, evidence-based practices.
“Ketamine can be a powerful catalyst for change. When used appropriately, it allows people to step outside of their usual mental framework and access parts of themselves that are often hidden by depression, anxiety, or trauma. This shift in perspective can be the opening that makes deep therapeutic work possible.”
~ Dr. Raquel Bennett Psychologist and Founder of The KRIYA Institute

Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is a therapeutic approach that combines the use of ketamine—a legal, fast-acting medication—with guided psychotherapy. In a safe, supportive setting, ketamine can help clients access deeper emotional insight, reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and PTSD, and support meaningful breakthroughs when paired with skilled therapeutic integration.
Ketamine works by interacting with NMDA and AMPA receptors in the brain, which are involved in mood regulation and neuroplasticity. This interaction helps form new neural pathways, allowing clients to shift out of rigid thought patterns and experience relief from symptoms. When combined with psychotherapy, these effects can be harnessed to support long-term healing and personal growth.
KAP may be a good fit for individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, or those in addiction recovery who haven’t found relief through traditional methods. It’s also an option for those seeking deeper personal or spiritual insight. A no-cost consultation and medical screening are required to determine eligibility and ensure safety.
Ketamine has been shown to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and trauma-related conditions—often with faster results than traditional treatments. It can also enhance emotional openness, support new perspectives, and create a window of neuroplasticity where therapeutic change is more accessible.
During a session, you’ll self-administer ketamine in a calm, private setting with your therapist present. The experience typically lasts about three hours, beginning with a guided preparation, followed by the ketamine journey itself, and concluding with time to reflect and begin integration. Music, eyeshades, and a comfortable environment help support the process.
