Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy Training

Autumn, 2024
Arlington, MA

What is KAP?

Ketamine is a flexible and powerful medicine which, when expertly blended with psychotherapy, can be a profound and life-changing treatment for many. Ketamine is also the best tool at present to learn and practice the principles of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy.  Join our experienced and seasoned team of ketamine assisted psychotherapy (KAP) practitioners and trainers to develop foundational and experiential skills in this profound modality, and to use KAP as an entranceway into the healing potential of a new wave of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy.

What You Will Learn

Our immersive KAP training blends an online foundational didactic instruction, presented in partnership with Fluence Training, with the heart of our training: a 4-day in-person experiential training with a cohort of clinicians involving dyadic and large and small group work. A collaborative opportunity to learn in dialogue and discussion led by a training team of seasoned KAP clinicians.

An Experiential Training Focused on Group-process

The 4-day experiential training will allow for rich professional and personal learning and connection between the participants, as we create a cohesive and safe container to learn and explore. In addition to preparing participants to begin working with patients integrating KAP into their clinical work, this training will provide a foundation in the preparation, exploration, and integration work inherent in all psychedelic assisted psychotherapies.
