EXTENDED THERAPY SESSIONS

EXTENDED THERAPY SESSIONS

AKA THERAPY INTENSIVES USING INTERNAL FAMILY SYSTEMS (IFS) & SOMATIC EXPERIENCING (SE)

Sometimes, 60-minutes isn’t enough.

Extended sessions are also available at 90-minutes, 120-minutes, and 180-minutes.

This can be a one time session or spread over several days, weeks, or several months.

Extended sessions might a good fit for those who:

  1. Time Constraints: Are busy and cannot commit to regular ongoing weekly or every two week sessions

  2. Short-Term: Are seeking treatment for 1-3 months at most

  3. Focused Work: Want to work on one single issue/topic/concern

  4. Specific Modalities: Want to utilize Internal Family Systems (IFS) and/or Somatic Experiencing (SE) modalities at a longer session length

  5. Adjunct Work: Have a current therapist, but their current therapist does not offer SE or IFS, and want to work on a topic/issue/concern in depth their current therapist has been exploring using SE or IFS

  6. For Dyads/Relationships/Couples: Who require more time to process and make space for their issues/concerns

integration therapy

KETAMINE INTEGRATION THERAPY

There are many pathways toward growth, healing, and transformation.

ketamine IS one tool toward growth, can help you get out of your own way, and become more of who you really are.

Therapy helps integrate insights through sustainable lifelong changes such as:

  • Shifting unhelpful core beliefs and stories

  • Increasing your sense of Self (esteem, confidence, worth)

  • Embodying and living a life aligned with your values

  • Cultivating more gratitude and joy

  • Positive behavioral changes

  • Increasing psychological flexibility

  • Greater acceptance of things outside of your control

  • Slowing down and appreciating the present moment

WHAT IS INTEGRATION?

Ketamine integration refers to the process of integrating and making sense of your experiences you’ve had with ketamine.

Together we will explore the meaning of your experiences, process emotions and learnings, integrate new perspectives, and make lifestyle or behavioral changes based on your gained insights into your daily life.

I’ve completed the following trainings: MAPS MDMA-Assisted Therapy Training, PRATI Foundational Ketamine Training, The Embody Lab’s Somatic Psychedelic Facilitator Certificate, & Psychedelic’s Support Certificate Program.

NOTES

  • I only work with clients engaged in Ketamine treatment with a medical provider seeking a therapist specializing in integration therapy

  • At this time, Ketamine is the only legal psychedelic in Washington State & California approved for off label for mental health issues

  • I do not provide recommendations on how to access psychedelic and entheogenic medicines, except for ketamine-assisted therapy.

  • I do not provide integration sessions while you are in an altered state with illegal substances.
