A three-week program featuring ketamine, supportive community, and an intentional, inclusive group process where experienced therapists guide deep and meaningful explorations of your inner world.
Time & Location: Aug 06, 2024, 7:00 PM – Aug 18, 2024, 8:30 PM
Virtual / In-Person (Union Square Location)
Ketamine is a unique dissociative medicine that quiets sensory input and can launch people into expansive, transpersonal spaces. Many people have used it–but we’re willing to bet not many have used it this way!
In conjunction with skilled therapists and intentional processes, ketamine opens a door into insight, inspiration and healing, as well as a deepening of our relationship with ourselves and others.
BPS is excited to partner with ketamine therapists Nikki Fall and Camila Pastor for a carefully crafted three-week program. Together we will enter a nourishing container supported by:
intention-setting exercises
mindfulness
IFS parts work
trauma- and attachment-oriented psychodynamic therapy
somatic experiencing
art and poetry
prompts that build trust and connection
If ketamine is an amplifier for healing, then the group itself is a second amplifier–both allowing material to arise and providing a safe, connected and regulated environment in which to work with it. We will listen, share authentically, and co-create a sense of belonging that can be carried back into our lives.
The group will consist of 7-8 people–the perfect size to build mutual trust and come away with deep new connections.

Cost + other benefits
The cost of this program is $375. This includes the cost of ketamine and the entire arch from first prep session to final integration. To our knowledge, this is the most accessible rate you will find in New York City for a program with this level of support.
On top of this, there is a one-time medical intake fee of $250, which is good for 6 months. But this fee is insurance-reimbursable!
