Symmetry of Self Podcast - Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy
In this episode, Heather McPaul speaks with me about the benefits of Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy for a variety of mental health issues. We talk about how it works, what sessions look like, contraindications and safety, what to look for and ask when searching for a therapist in this area, and why it might be an effective choice for people who aren't making progress with other therapy modalities.
