ketamine-assisted psychotherapy for eating disorders

if you are struggling with an eating disorder and are looking for an alternative to traditional talk therapy, this may be for you.

ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) offers several benefits for treating eating disorders:

  1. rapid symptom relief: KAP can quickly alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety, which often co-occur with eating disorders. symptom relief may be helpful in fostering a greater sense of motivation & hope.

  2. enhanced emotional processing: ketamine helps unlock deeper emotional insights, enabling patients to process trauma and underlying issues that may be contributing to disordered eating.

  3. increased neuroplasticity: ketamine promotes neuroplasticity, supporting the brain in forming new, healthier patterns and behaviors. essentially, re-wiring parts of the brain that may be stuck in dysfunction.

  4. reduced urges and compulsions: KAP can help decrease obsessive and intrusive thoughts about food and body image, ultimately leading to a reduction in bingeing, purging, and restrictive behaviors.

  5. supportive therapeutic environment: structured KAP sessions provide a safe space to explore and address complex emotions and behaviors related to eating disorders.

in combination with ongoing therapy, KAP can be a powerful tool for promoting recovery and fostering long-term well-being.
