What is KAP?

Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is a holistic modality in which ketamine is used as a complement to psychotherapy to help eligible patients experience more frequent breakthroughs and sustained improvement in symptoms.

How Does KAP Work?

Ketamine works by changing how certain chemicals in the brain function, by enhancing neuroplasticity, and by promoting the growth of new neural connections. This neurobiological impact allows for more effective psychotherapy, as clients can process traumatic memories and emotions with greater ease and insight.

By combining ketamine's biochemical effects with the therapeutic alliance, KAP provides a holistic approach to mental wellness, offering hope and relief to those who have not found success with conventional treatments.
