FAQs 

  • Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is an innovative mental health treatment that combines the medical use of ketamine with traditional psychotherapy. Ketamine acts to temporarily soften psychological defenses, allowing clients to access and process deep-rooted trauma and treatment-resistant depression more effectively than with talk therapy alone.

  • Yes, ketamine is an FDA-approved medication that has been used safely as an anesthetic for decades. When prescribed off-label for mental health under strict medical supervision, it is both safe and highly effective. I partner with Journey Clinical, a specialized medical team, to ensure all clients undergo a rigorous medical intake and receive proper medical oversight throughout their KAP treatment.

  • KAP is typically recommended for adults who have not found adequate relief through traditional talk therapy or standard psychiatric medications. It is highly effective for individuals suffering from:

    • Treatment-Resistant Depression

    • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

    • Severe Anxiety

    • Deeply entrenched trauma responses

  • Our partnership ensures a safe, collaborative care model. The medical professionals at Journey Clinical handle your medical evaluation, determine your eligibility, prescribe the ketamine, and monitor your medical safety. As your psychotherapist, I guide you through the preparation, sit with you during the dosing sessions, and lead the critical integration therapy to help you process the experience.

  • Ketamine can induce a non-ordinary state of consciousness, which some describe as a dream-like, dissociative, or deeply introspective state. While visual changes can occur, it is a medically managed, sub-anesthetic dose designed for therapeutic exploration, not recreational hallucination. I provide a safe, grounded environment in my North Miami office to support you through the entire experience.
