Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy in Colorado
When “Just Talking” Isn’t Enough
You’ve done the work: you’ve sat through therapy sessions, read self-help books, and maybe even tried medication along the way. But despite being highly motivated and unquestionably committed to your healing, the weight of anxiety or lingering effects of trauma are like an anchor preventing you from moving forward.
Whether you’re struggling with paralyzing perfectionism, harsh self-criticism, consistently low self-worth, or a traumatic experience that continues to threaten your peace, you might find that traditional talk therapy just isn’t bringing the results you wanted on the timeline you hoped for.
And while talk therapy can be helpful, it can be difficult to reach the deeper layers of our challenges that we need to work through for true healing.
What Can You Do When Traditional Methods Fall Short?
The frustration that comes from a lack of progress, especially when putting in real effort, is completely understandable.
Trauma lives in the body as much as the mind, which means talk therapy often only addresses half of the problem.
At the same time, standard medications for anxiety and depression take time to work and sometimes only numb feelings once they do take effect, further delaying your healing.
We might start to feel that we are “broken” or that therapy “just won’t work” for us.
That’s why it’s important to understand that mind-centered approaches like traditional talk therapy might help us make sense of our struggles on an intellectual level while we still carry unresolved trauma in the nervous system. This mind-body disconnect can slow down our healing and make us feel exhausted and discouraged.
But there is a better way forward, and its results can be life-changing.
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy
Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is a breakthrough healing method that addresses the mind-body connection, pairing the unique benefits of ketamine medication with the relief and depth that therapy can bring.
KAP is much more than just another medication to try. With KAP, we can experience mind-body healing in a relaxed, reflective state that allows us to explore the root causes of distress in a safe, controlled environment.
How KAP Supports Healing
Rapid relief: ketamine can provide improvement in depression and anxiety symptoms in as little as a few hours
Neuroplasticity: simply put, ketamine helps your brain rewire itself for positive changes in your thought patterns
Somatic release: since KAP works with the nervous system directly, it supports us in processing trauma that’s held in the body
Emotional safety: with the gentle support that the ketamine medication provides, we can explore difficult emotions in a non-overwhelming way
