KetaMINE ASSISTED PsYCHOTHERAPY

Initial consultation

  • Schedule

    Start by scheduling an initial evaluation with us. We will go over your medical and psychiatric history with you, provide education on the treatment and determine if you are eligible for KAP.

  • Once Eligible

    Once determined that you are eligible for KAP, we then will develop a personalized Ketamine prescription and outcome monitoring plan for you.

  • Next steps

    Journey Clinical’s medical staff will write a ketamine prescription for you, and a small amount of oral ketamine will be sent to your home, enough for the first 2 KAP sessions. You will be taught to take your vitals and self-administer the ketamine lozenges by Journey Clinical’s medical team in advance of our KAP sessions.

  • Once you receive your ketamine lozenges, we will schedule time together for our KAP preparation, dosing and integration sessions. Preparation session(s) will be scheduled just like regular therapy sessions prior to the KAP dosing session. The goal of a preparation session(s) is to align on the process and set intentions for our KAP sessions together.

  • A typical ketamine dosing session lasts between 2-3 hours and can take place in-person at our office.

    During a dosing session, you will self-administer your ketamine lozenge either in our office. You will be in a comfortable, reclining position wearing an eye mask and listening to calming music. Although a KAP dosing session may be largely an internal experience, We will be present with you the entire time to hold space and provide support as needed.

  • After our KAP dosing session, we will meet for multiple integration therapy sessions to review the memories, thoughts & insights that arose during your dosing session, and to prepare for the next dosing session.

  • After our first KAP session, Journey Clinical’s medical team schedules regular follow ups with you to monitor outcomes and prescribe ketamine lozenge refills, as appropriate. The frequency of follow ups depends on your unique treatment plan, at a minimum of once per quarter.
