Ketamine Therapy in Portland, Oregon
A Relational, Depth-Oriented Approach to Healing with Altered States
I offer Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) for people seeking meaningful, lasting transformation — not just symptom relief. This work integrates medicine and mindfulness, presence and process, to help you reconnect with your innate capacity for healing and growth.
Is Ketamine Therapy Right for You?
You’ve done the work. You’ve been to therapy. Maybe you’ve gained deep insight — but something still hasn’t shifted.
You may feel:
-
Stuck in persistent patterns despite your efforts
-
Disconnected from emotion or inner aliveness
-
Weighed down by anxiety, depression, or stress that talking hasn’t resolved
-
Drawn toward something deeper — a breakthrough, not just more coping
Ketamine therapy may offer a new way forward — especially when held in a safe, relational container.
What Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) Offers
While many people search for ketamine therapy, what I provide is Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy — a relational, depth-oriented process that weaves the medicine experience into psychotherapy.
KAP combines the neurobiological benefits of ketamine with the healing power of presence, integration, and meaning-making.
This approach can help you:
-
Loosen entrenched narratives and mental defenses
-
Access emotional or experiential material that feels out of reach
-
Reconnect with vitality, clarity, and inner guidance
-
Expand self-awareness and openness to change
-
Support healing that feels embodied and enduring
What to Expect in a KAP Process
1. Initial Consultation
We begin with a thorough conversation to explore your goals, history, and readiness. Together, we determine whether KAP is the right fit.
2. Medical Clearance
You’ll meet with a licensed medical provider for a health screening and prescription of ketamine (typically via lozenge or intramuscular injection).
3. Preparation Sessions
We clarify your intentions, establish trust, and prepare for the altered state experience.
4. Dosing Sessions
Ketamine is administered by the prescriber while I hold attuned therapeutic space. You’re guided gently, with safety and support.
5. Integration Sessions
In the days and weeks that follow, we process imagery, emotion, and insight — translating the experience into embodied change.
6. Ongoing Medical Follow-Ups
You’ll continue to check in with the prescribing provider for any medical support needed as your process unfolds.
This is not a transactional model. It’s a collaborative journey rooted in depth, safety, and relational presence.
For clients outside the Portland area, I also offer telehealth KAP across Oregon — including preparation and integration sessions held remotely in collaboration with your prescribing provider.
My Approach as a Ketamine Therapist
I work with clients who are ready for depth, not just relief. As a trauma-informed and spiritually grounded therapist, I hold space with steadiness, curiosity, and deep respect for your process.
My focus is on attunement, integration, and supporting the transformation that happens within and between — not only during the medicine session, but across the arc of the work.
