Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)

1:1 Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) combines the powerful therapeutic effects of ketamine with personalized psychotherapy, creating a transformative experience tailored to your unique needs. In a private, compassionate setting, you’ll have the opportunity to explore deep-seated emotional challenges, gain clarity, and foster lasting change. Guided by Dr. Mariya Gyorev, you’ll experience a holistic approach to healing that integrates both the mind and body.

KAP is a structured, three-phase process designed to provide profound emotional healing, growth, and insight:

• Preparation Sessions: These sessions are foundational, where we explore your personal goals, set intentions, and review your history to ensure that your journey is safe and effective. This is the space where you and I collaborate to create a therapy plan tailored to your needs.
• KAP Administration Sessions: The ketamine experience is designed to take you to a heightened state of awareness, where deep healing can occur. In this safe, supportive setting, ketamine helps open pathways to emotional breakthroughs, allowing you to explore and release unconscious emotional blockages, traumas, and patterns.
• Integration Sessions: After your KAP session, we meet to reflect on the experience and make sense of the insights gained. Integration is key to embedding these breakthroughs into your daily life, creating lasting change that enhances your well-being.

• Deep Emotional Healing: Ketamine helps you access deeper emotional layers, making it easier to process past trauma, grief, or attachment wounds that may be hindering your growth.
• Reduced Anxiety and Depression: Ketamine can have an immediate and profound impact on symptoms of anxiety and depression, creating a sense of emotional relief and increased emotional resilience.
• Enhanced Self-Awareness: KAP facilitates a state of heightened introspection, enabling you to gain clarity about your life, behaviors, and relationships, which can be transformative for personal growth.
• Breakthroughs in Thought Patterns: For those who feel “stuck” or unable to break through limiting thought patterns, KAP can create the mental space needed to access new perspectives and insights, helping you release negative loops.
• Healing from Chronic Pain or PTSD: Ketamine is known for its ability to help individuals process trauma and chronic pain, making it especially beneficial for those dealing with PTSD or longstanding physical and emotional wounds.
• Improved Emotional Regulation: KAP can help you rewire your brain’s emotional pathways, leading to better control over your emotions, reducing reactivity, and enhancing your ability to manage stress.
• Spiritual Insight and Connection: For some individuals, KAP offers a profound sense of connection to something larger than themselves, helping to deepen their sense of purpose, meaning, and spiritual awareness.
• Greater Compassion and Empathy: The experience often helps individuals feel more compassionate and empathetic toward themselves and others, which can lead to healthier relationships and a deeper understanding of your own needs and desires.
• Creative and Cognitive Rewiring: Ketamine has been shown to promote neuroplasticity, encouraging new brain connections that can lead to improved creativity, problem-solving, and cognitive flexibility.

The Benefits of Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) for Couples

Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) offers couples a unique opportunity to explore their relationship dynamics in a safe, supportive, and transformative space. By combining the therapeutic effects of ketamine with guided psychotherapy, couples can address underlying emotional challenges, enhance communication, and deepen their connection.

1. Enhanced Emotional Connection
   Ketamine can facilitate access to deeper emotional states, making it easier for couples to connect with each other on a meaningful level. It helps to reduce emotional barriers, allowing partners to express vulnerability and compassion more openly.
2. Healing Past Wounds
   Unresolved traumas or past conflicts often linger in relationships, creating tension or distance. KAP can help uncover and address these hidden patterns, providing a pathway for mutual healing and understanding.
3. Improved Communication
   The altered state facilitated by ketamine often leads to heightened introspection and self-awareness. This can allow couples to communicate their feelings and needs more effectively, free from the usual defenses or misinterpretations.
4. Reduced Conflict and Tension
   Ketamine’s ability to reduce anxiety and promote emotional calm can help couples navigate difficult conversations with less reactivity. It creates a space where both partners can approach challenges with greater clarity and patience.
5. Rekindling Intimacy
   Whether emotional or physical, intimacy is often impacted by stress, unresolved issues, or emotional distance. KAP provides an opportunity to reconnect by fostering a sense of shared purpose, openness, and mutual appreciation.
6. Deepened Self-Understanding
   KAP helps individuals within the relationship gain insight into their own emotions, behaviors, and patterns, creating a stronger foundation for growth both as individuals and as a couple.

KAP for couples is particularly helpful for those who:

• Struggle with recurring conflict or communication issues
• Have experienced trauma or grief that affects their relationship
• Feel disconnected or stuck in their relationship dynamic
• Seek to rebuild trust or strengthen their bond

Group Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) Sessions

Group Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) offers a powerful and supportive environment where participants can explore personal healing alongside others on similar journeys. This shared therapeutic experience combines the transformative potential of ketamine with the collective wisdom and connection of a group setting.

1. Community and Connection
   Healing within a group allows participants to feel seen and supported by others who share similar struggles. This sense of belonging can reduce feelings of isolation and provide a collective strength that enhances the therapeutic experience.
2. Shared Insights
   Each participant’s journey within the group brings unique insights that can resonate with and inspire others. Hearing others’ experiences often provides fresh perspectives and fosters mutual growth.
3. Cost-Effective Option
   Group sessions are typically more affordable than individual KAP therapy, making this transformative experience accessible to more people while maintaining the benefits of professional facilitation.
