Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)

Available in-person in Montpelier, VT, and statewide via telehealth

A safe, legal Psychedelic Integration Framework for trauma recovery

Part of you wants to change

You've done the work. You've sat in therapy, said the hard things out loud, maybe even understood exactly where your pain comes from — and you're still stuck. If insight alone hasn't been enough to actually change how you feel, that's not a failure on your part. It just means the door you've been knocking on isn't the only one.

A Guided Path

KAP isn't ketamine instead of therapy — it's ketamine inside therapy, held by someone trained to walk the whole path with you. We prepare together beforehand, so you know exactly what to expect. During the session, you're never alone. Afterward, we integrate what came up, so the experience actually becomes lasting change instead of just an interesting few hours. Simple, structured, and never rushed.
