In this episode, I talk to Katja Cahoon, a licensed clinical social worker, certified EMDR therapist, and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapist about the benefits of using ketamine-assisted psychotherapy for a variety of mental health issues. We'll discuss how it works, what sessions would look like, as well as how safe it is, and why it might be an effective choice for people who aren't making progress with other therapy modalities.
