Full Living Psychedelic Psychotherapy Services

There are multiple psychedelics currently in late-stage trials with the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) and some of the country’s most prestigious medical research organizations for use in psychedelic assisted psychotherapy, with both MDMA, commonly referred to as ecstasy or molly, and Psilocybin (mushrooms). They each offer unique benefits in aiding with various psychological and emotional diagnosis and conundrums that bring folx into psychotherapy.

While some people eager to explore the way psychedelics might help with their psychotherapy journeys, Ketamine offers its own unique features making it an excellent medicine to consider for use as a tool for psychedelic psychotherapy.

Full Living Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy Services

Unlike MDMA or Psilocybin, where treatment might be only one medicine journey, or a handful of medicine sessions, with the bite-size nature of ketamine, with the 20–40 minute “trip”, clients often engage in multiple treatments over a period of time, sometimes even dozens. For those using infusion centers through their medical insurance, this may well be an affordable option. For those seeking sessions that are therapy assisted, it is unlikely affordable to do all of your sessions with a therapist present for financial reasons. We often encourage clients to consider our Becoming Your Own Ally group experience, or two or three therapist-facilitated individual sessions, which we hope will prepare them to do the remaining sessions on their own.

Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy is an expensive endeavor. Some of the other psychedelics, psilocybin and MDMA, are particularly financially burdensome because of the length of the medicine session. The cost for ketamine in comparatively low because of the short duration of the medicine session, and the safety and nature of the medicine that makes it viable for at home use.

To get you started, here is what Full Living offers, as needed to help assess if you are a good candidate for ketamine assisted psychotherapy, and what services might best help you in the work you hope to do.

Individual Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy

Work with KAP and your KAP therapist may be short-term, long-term, weekly, periodic, monitored medicine session or at home use, managed virtually or live, etc. Really. You and your therapist will create the shape of the work as you go, since the medicine is powerful, and we are responding to the changes it is bringing into your life. Hard to plan the whole path from the starting point.

If you are in your own psychotherapy already, your KAP therapist will be working hard with you to keep your therapist in the loop, and primary. So much of this work is about long-term integration, so it is imperative that what you are experiencing lands in the room with you and your primary therapist.

Becoming Your Own Ally: Our Local Group Retreat

Full Living offers Becoming Your Own Ally local group retreats every 3 months.

First timers: Some group participants will use this group for their first medicine experience. The group experience is the most efficient, economical, supported, nicely packaged way for your first experiences with this lovely medicine.
Deep Divers: Others will use it as a deep dive into our group intention of learning to build an alliance with the self. When we work with psychedelics, building intention matters. As a group, exploring the theme of how to have your own back together, and then hearing what your unconscious has to say about it on the medicine is totally transformational.
Allies: Learning how to have your own back is a meaningful enough quest to engage as an ongoing commitment. Some folx use this group as an ongoing group. Once people have participated in this group, they can join our monthly integration virtual group to continue the work in between group medicine experiences.

Groups are an ideal setting for at least one of your medicine sessions. The small group environment offers opportunities for ritual, community, rich intention setting, and supported integration groups. We approach the sessions with ceremony, offer guided breathing, meditation, and movement, art and eating together. We meet in a lovely space, with several therapists, so we can guide each client through their experience and attend to their specific needs.
