INTRODUCING Closed-Group KAP at the AIMS Institute

INTRODUCING Closed-Group KAP at the AIMS InstituteTo our beloved community,

We’ve noticed an uptick in disconnection, social anxiety, and the need for social connection among our patients. Isolation as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic can tax our coping skills and make it harder to heal from underlying psychoemotional distress. We believe that healing and reconnection to ourselves are best done within a supportive community.

“The essence of trauma is disconnection…so the real question is: How did we get separated and how do we connect?” – Dr. Gabor Mate, author, and physician

To address this need, we are offering a 7-week Group Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy program, beginning Thursday, January 19th, 2023. Weeks will alternate between integration and experiential sessions as a group and will be capped at 5 people with two AIMS guides. Traditionally, psychedelic or entheogenic medicines are often used in the community, as psychoemotional work is potent with the support and reciprocity of peers. The synergy within group work makes this series far greater than the sum of its parts, and as such this closed-group series allows for a unique, intentional group experience.

Impacts to Anxiety, Depression, and Psycho-Spiritual Metrics after Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy in Palliative Care Patients at the AIMS Institute

Author: Thomas Luedeke, Seattle University https://scholarworks.seattleu.edu/dnp-projects/95/ Date of Award 2024 Document Type Project College/School College of Nursing Degree Name Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) Project Mentor Therry Rose Eparwa Readers Conor Watters Abstract There is considerable evidence that palliative care patients disproportionately experience anxiety, depression, and existential distress related to their chronic illnesses. Additionally, conventional therapies tend to be less effective in the treatment of this patient population. As such, research is being conducted into novel therapies. One of the promising therapies currently under active investigation is ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) which involves a combination of the administration of the dissociative anesthetic ...
