Ketamine Assisted Therapy
At Bespoke Treatment, we offer in-person Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) in Los Angeles and Santa Monica as part of our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). This comprehensive approach provides a safe and supportive environment where patients can thoroughly explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences—paving the way toward profound and lasting results.
Get StartedWhat is Ketamine-Assisted Therapy?
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) combines the therapeutic effects of ketamine with psychotherapy to treat complex mental health conditions. Initially used as an anesthetic in 1970, ketamine has been studied for mental health treatments since 2000. Today, KAP offers relief for depression, anxiety, PTSD, and chronic pain—especially in cases when other therapies haven’t worked.
Unlike traditional treatment methods, which can take weeks to show results, ketamine can have an impact after just one session. This fast-acting therapy provides immediate relief while addressing the root causes of mental health challenges.
As part of our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), we combine ketamine-assisted therapy with individual and group psychotherapy, along with other evidence-based therapies. Each program is personalized to each individual and their specific lifestyle or schedule. By incorporating unique preparation and integration phases, we ensure ketamine’s therapeutic effects are maximized—providing immediate relief and lasting healing.
Conditions that may be eligible for KAP include:
- Treatment-resistant depression
- Treatment-resistant anxiety
- Treatment-resistant PTSD
- Mental health challenges involving suicidal thoughts
How Does Ketamine-Assisted Therapy Work?
Ketamine promotes neuroplasticity and lowers treatment resistance, while cognitive therapy helps align patients’ thoughts and behaviors with their goals. Many patients describe ketamine-assisted sessions as feeling like the equivalent of 50 regular therapy sessions—making it a powerful and effective approach for achieving recovery and lasting mental health improvements.

Start Your Journey
What to Expect
Your Initial Consultation
During your first visit, our care team will learn about your medical history, symptoms, and any medications you’re taking. We may also run some assessments to better understand your mental health needs. From there, we’ll suggest treatment options that may include psychotherapy, medication, ketamine-assisted therapy, and more.
Preparing for Ketamine-Assisted Therapy
Before starting ketamine-assisted therapy, we’ll guide you through a preparation process. Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) takes the time to make sure you’re fully prepared and comfortable. We’ll explain what to expect and tailor a treatment plan just for you so you feel confident moving forward.
Your First Ketamine-Assisted Therapy Session
In your first session, you’ll be closely monitored by one of our therapists. As the ketamine starts to work, your therapist will guide you through a 90-minute session. You might feel different sensations, like floating, mild hallucinations, or emotional shifts, but your therapist will be there to keep you safe and comfortable throughout.
Integrating Your Experience
After each ketamine session, we focus on integration—an essential part of our program. This step helps you process your ketamine experiences with the guidance of a qualified professional in a supportive and safe setting.
Integration enables you to reinforce positive thoughts, habits, and skills—making it easier to apply what you’ve learned to your everyday life. As you move through the program, you’ll build emotional resilience and gain valuable coping skills, leading to lasting improvements in your mental health.
