Community has been an essential part of psychedelic work, for thousands of years. Ketamine is an evidence-based tool to alleviate depression and anxiety, for biological reasons, but also by allowing us to meet our suffering with compassionate curiosity, with openness, with truth - and support.
Our 6-week program is designed to increase psychological flexibility by taking you out of your habitual ways of thinking & being and allowing you to have a new experience of yourself, with others and the world. KAP will be supported by mindfulness, parts work, trauma & attachment oriented, psychodynamic therapy, use of somatic experiencing, art, poetry, and other exercises or prompts that build trust and connection.

Steps to Join:
Step 1. Fill out the initial registration form and we will contact you for the phone or Zoom screening call. This 15-20 minutes screening call is designed to determine if the specific retreat is a good fit for you, to answer questions you might have, and so forth.
Step 2. If the phone or Zoom screening results in a sense that there is a good fit (mutually decided, of course) you will be asked to make a deposit of 50% of the retreat fee.
Step 3. After a successful screening you will be assigned to a physician for a medical evaluation intake. There is a $250 fee for this medical interview paid directly to the medical provider. This fee does not include the cost of prescribing the ketamine to you, which is an additional $85. This medical assessment is essential. It is refunded should you not qualify for this retreat for medical reasons as determined by the provider.
Step 4. After your deposit is received, a zoom preparation session will follow, with the group facilitators. The purpose of the preparation session is for us to get to know you better, for you to meet the group members, and to provide education to you regarding the retreat and psychedelic experience.
Step 6. You will be asked to sign a confidentiality agreement that delineates our request that you hold the names/identities of other participants as confidential. There will also be an Informed Consent document which we ask you to read carefully and sign. This process (Informed Consent) describes risks inherent in participation in retreats such as ours.
