Quick FAQs
What is Ketamine?
Ketamine is a unique medication that has been used safely in medical settings for over 50 years. Originally developed as an anesthetic, it is now recognized for its rapid-acting antidepressant effects and its potential to facilitate deep psychological healing. Ketamine is classified as a “dissociative anesthetic,” meaning it can create a sense of detachment from one’s thoughts, emotions, or body, which can be therapeutically beneficial when guided in a structured setting.
Today, ketamine is used off-label to support individuals struggling with treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health conditions. It works through a different mechanism than traditional psychiatric medications, primarily by modulating the glutamate system, which plays a key role in neuroplasticity—the brain’s ability to adapt and form new connections. Many individuals report increased mental flexibility, a sense of emotional relief, and access to new perspectives following ketamine treatment.
What is Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)?
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is an integrative mental health approach that combines the effects of ketamine with psychotherapy to promote deep healing. Rather than merely alleviating symptoms, KAP facilitates an expanded state of awareness that allows individuals to access and process emotions, thoughts, and past experiences in new ways. This approach is grounded in the belief that each person has an innate ability to heal, and ketamine can serve as a catalyst in this process.
At our practice, we emphasize safety, intention, and integration. Treatment involves preparation, the medicine session itself, and post-session integration, where insights gained during the experience are explored with the support of a therapist. We create a setting that is supportive, calming, and conducive to deep introspection, often incorporating music, mindful breathing, and other grounding techniques.
How does Ketamine work?
What are the routes of Ketamine administration?
What are potential benefits of Ketamine?
Participation in ketamine therapy can result in a number of benefits, but there is no guarantee that any or all benefits will occur. Although there are now many studies demonstrating its efficacy, use of ketamine is still considered a new and experimental psychiatric treatment. Improvement generally occurs with ongoing administration (often a combination of in-office and at-home sessions) and is most robust when part of an overall psychotherapy treatment program. KAP may permanently relieve an individual’s condition but not always. If symptoms respond to ketamine, a patient may still elect to be treated with other medications and ongoing psychotherapy to reduce the possibility of relapse.
What does a Ketamine session look like?
Ketamine treatment consists of multiple stages, each designed to maximize therapeutic benefits and ensure safety.
What does Ketamine feel like?
The experience of ketamine varies depending on the individual, the dose, and the setting. Common effects include:
What are the side effects of Ketamine?
Ketamine has a well-established safety record, especially when administered in a controlled, medical setting. Unlike many anesthetics, ketamine does not suppress breathing or heart function at therapeutic doses. However, there are some considerations to keep in mind:
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions needed is variable, depending on overall treatment goals and responsiveness to the treatment. Current research shows that 70% of patients with treatment resistant depression respond positively to 1-3 administrations, and 30-60% report having a remission of their depression for varying lengths of time. It seems that with repeated drug sessions, and in combination with psychotherapy, there is a cumulative antidepressant effect. KAP may also prove effective at reducing remission rates/frequency for symptoms of other conditions such as anxiety and trauma. KAP may further serve to support and foster lasting positive influences on an individual’s interpersonal relationships, occupational and social relationships, and promote the further maturation of an individual’s positive sense of self, self-agency, and self acceptance.
Is Ketamine addictive?
Ketamine is a controlled substance and is subject to Schedule III rules under the Controlled Substance Act of 1970. Medical evidence regarding the issue of drug abuse and dependence suggests that ketamine’s abuse potential is equivalent to that of phencyclidine and other hallucinogenic compounds that do not meet criteria for chemical dependence. This is because they do not cause tolerance and withdrawal symptoms. However, cravings have been reported by individuals with the history of heavy use of psychedelic drugs. In addition, ketamine can have pleasurable effects on mood (feelings), cognition (thinking), and perception (visual and auditory) leading some individuals to want to use it repeatedly. Therefore, ketamine should only be used under the direct supervision of a licensed physician.
