Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) at Integrative Psych is a groundbreaking approach to mental health treatment that combines traditional psychotherapeutic techniques with the administration of ketamine, a medication known for its rapid-acting antidepressant properties. This innovative therapy is particularly effective for conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health disorders resistant to conventional treatments. Experience the benefits of ketamine-assisted psychotherapy in New York with our expert team.
The journey begins with a comprehensive evaluation by our team, including Dr. Ryan Sultan. This step ensures KAP is a suitable and safe treatment option for each patient, considering their medical history, psychiatric condition, and treatment goals.
Before starting therapy, patients undergo a preparatory session. This crucial step involves educating patients about the effects of ketamine, discussing the therapy process, and setting intentions for treatment.
Based on the initial assessment, a personalized treatment plan is developed. This plan outlines the dosage, frequency, and method of ketamine administration, tailored to the patient's specific needs.
Depending on individual requirements, ketamine is administered using various methods, we provide it intramuscularly (IM). The patient is closely monitored in a comforting and safe environment, designed to enhance the therapeutic experience.
Post-ketamine administration, patients engage in psychotherapy sessions. These sessions leverage the heightened state of neuroplasticity induced by ketamine, facilitating deeper therapeutic insights and emotional breakthroughs.
Treatment effectiveness is continuously monitored through regular check-ins and assessments. Adjustments to the treatment plan are made as needed to optimize therapeutic outcomes.
Unlike traditional antidepressants that may take weeks to show effects, ketamine can provide relief from symptoms of depression and anxiety within hours to days.
KAP offers hope to patients who have not found relief with other treatments, providing a new avenue for healing and recovery.
Ketamine's ability to induce neuroplasticity – the brain's capacity to form new neural connections – enhances the effectiveness of psychotherapeutic interventions.
By combining ketamine's pharmacological benefits with psychotherapy, KAP addresses mental health from a comprehensive perspective, leading to more sustainable improvements.
