Sometimes talk therapy isn’t enough—especially when you're carrying trauma, depression, or emotional weight that just won't lift. At Healthier You in American Fork, UT, we offer Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) as a transformative option for clients who feel stuck, numb, or disconnected from themselves and their healing journey.
When used in a safe, guided clinical setting, ketamine can help bypass mental blocks and open up new pathways to healing. Combined with psychotherapy, it can accelerate breakthroughs and allow for deep emotional work that might otherwise take months or years.
📞Call or text (801) 701-0348 today to explore whether KAP is right for you.
What Is Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)?
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy is a therapeutic approach that integrates the use of low-dose ketamine—an FDA-approved medication for anesthesia and treatment-resistant depression—with talk therapy. Unlike recreational use, KAP is medically supervised, intentional, and deeply structured.
When administered in small, controlled doses under the care of a licensed provider, ketamine can help:
- Loosen rigid thought patterns
- Increase emotional openness
- Enhance insight and self-awareness
- Temporarily reduce the grip of depression, PTSD, and anxiety
With the brain in this altered—but conscious—state, you can access buried thoughts and feelings in a new, more compassionate way.
Who Can Benefit From KAP?
While not a first-line treatment, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy can be life-changing for those who’ve tried traditional approaches and still feel stuck.
KAP May Be Right for You If You’re Experiencing:
Treatment-resistant depression
Chronic anxiety or panic
PTSD or unresolved trauma
Suicidal ideation
Emotional numbness or dissociation
Spiritual or existential distress
It’s especially helpful for clients who struggle to connect to their emotions or find that conventional therapy hasn't gone deep enough.
What To Expect In A KAP Session
Your safety—emotionally and physically—is our top priority.
Here’s what a typical KAP experience looks like at Healthier You:
Step 1 – Intake + Evaluation
We’ll begin with a comprehensive intake session to determine if KAP is appropriate for your history, symptoms, and goals. If so, we’ll schedule a series of sessions tailored to your needs.
Step 2 – Guided Ketamine Sessions
In a calm, private therapy room, you’ll receive a low dose of ketamine via lozenge or intramuscular injection under professional supervision. You’ll remain conscious but in a relaxed, introspective state.
Step 3 – Integration Therapy
During the ketamine session, we move into integration. This is where real healing happens. You’ll work with your therapist to unpack insights, emotions, and new perspectives that surfaced during the session—and apply them to your life in practical ways.
Most clients receive a series of 3–6 sessions, with integration therapy continuing beyond the ketamine experience.
Is Ketamine Safe?
Ketamine has been used safely for decades in hospitals and clinics, and when administered in a therapeutic setting, it is both safe and legal. All KAP sessions at Healthier You are:
- Conducted by trained, licensed professionals
- Administered in a medically supervised environment
- Tailored to your psychological and physical health needs
Not everyone is a candidate for ketamine treatment. During your intake, we’ll carefully assess any medical conditions, medications, or mental health diagnoses that may impact your eligibility.
A Compassionate, Trauma-Informed Approach
KAP isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about helping you reconnect to your inner resilience. We use a trauma-informed, client-centered approach that honors your experience and autonomy.
If we discover that another modality may complement your healing, we’ll work collaboratively to integrate services such as:
- Individual therapy for ongoing emotional support
- Marriage counseling if relationship dynamics are impacted
- Group therapy to feel less alone in your journey
- Retreats for immersive healing experiences
