What should I expect during a ketamine assisted therapy session in Boston?

A typical session at Joy In Health involves a calm, supportive environment where set and setting are carefully curated. Sessions may include tailored music playlists, a 3-hour ketamine therapy experience, and integration discussions to process insights. The goal is to create a safe and deeply introspective space for healing​.

Ketamine assisted psychotherapy involves the administration of ketamine—a medication commonly used for anesthesia and pain management—in conjunction with psychotherapeutic support to address a variety of mental health conditions. Unlike traditional antidepressant medications, which can take weeks or even months to produce effects, ketamine works rapidly, often providing relief from symptoms within hours or days.

During a ketamine assisted psychotherapy session, we typically administer ketamine as an intramuscular injections. While ketamine induces a temporary altered state of consciousness, we guide our clients through the experience, providing support, insight, and guidance to facilitate healing and integration.
