Ketamine Integration Therapy in California
Ketamine-assisted treatment may be considered for people experiencing depression, severe anxiety, PTSD, or chronic pain, particularly when symptoms have not improved enough with traditional treatments. It may also be an option for people experiencing treatment-resistant mental health conditions.
At Trust Mental Health, we provide the therapy that follows ketamine treatment rather than administering or providing ketamine itself. Ketamine treatment is provided separately by an appropriately qualified medical provider, while our therapists help you process and make meaning of your experience afterward.
This approach is often called ketamine integration therapy. Integration therapy gives you a supportive space to reflect on your experience, explore thoughts and emotions that may have surfaced, and connect those insights to your ongoing therapeutic goals and everyday life.
When possible, beginning integration therapy within 24 hours after ketamine treatment can provide an opportunity to work with the experience while it is still fresh. Your therapist can help you process what you experienced and develop practical ways to carry meaningful insights forward as part of your ongoing care.
If you are considering ketamine treatment for depression, severe anxiety, PTSD, chronic pain, or treatment-resistant symptoms, our therapists can provide the therapeutic support that comes after your ketamine experience.
