KAP Session Demonstration Videos

We have found in our years of training psychotherapists to work in KAP that folx really value a chance to see what KAP actually looks like and how to do it. These are a collection of videos we use to train psychotherapists in working with Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy. They are role-play demonstrations of intake sessions, preparation sessions and medicine session journeys.

Initial Intake (20 Minutes) 
This video walks the therapist through an initial conversation with several clients interested in KAP. It demonstrates ways to manage fear and expectations, differentiating ketamine from other psychedelics, educating the client about the effects of the medicine, and explaining the KAP treatment process. The video offers snippets of new clients, old clients, stuck clients, harm reduction models, TRD protocol conversations, etc. 

Consent to Treatment (7 Minutes) 
This is a video demonstration of walking a client through all the nitty gritty details of consenting to KAP treatment, including touch and at-home use protocols. (see consents package for more information) 

Touch Refusal Exercise (5 Minutes) 
Some KAP clinicians use various forms of touch during medicine sessions. After client and therapist have a consent plan, this is a due-diligence exercise of practice with your clients if you are offering touch as part of your treatment model. 

Medicine Journey Session (16 Minutes) 
Karen and Sophia role play the beginning of a medicine session, reviewing with the client the details of medicine sessions, managing expectations, fears and anxiety, reviewing protocol for taking the medicine, locking in on their intention, short meditation, taking the medicine, and settling into the journey with occasional check-ins. 

Medicine Journey Session Part II (11 Minutes) 
In the previous video we demonstrated how most first medicine sessions begin. This video offers examples of when there are some difficulties in the clients settling into the session, and ways you might navigate that.
