What is a KAP Journey?
Prepare, Experience, Integrate, Repeat
Preparation
Preparation is an essential part of the process. For us to meet and connect prior to embarking is important. We'll discuss your hopes and goals, provide information, and build an alliance for our work together. My intention is to be as supportive as I can be for you and your journey.
Ketamine Session
I will be present throughout for the duration of your journey.
You will be in a comfortable and safe space where I will play music specially curated to provide a gentle support to your journey. Personal eye shades will be a offered to enable a deeper experience with less external distractions. All your needs for this experience have been considered so you can fully relax and journey.
Integration
Integration is key to all psychedelic journeys to help anchor any insights and bring whatever was gleaned into concrete reality.
Processing and externally symbolizing through journaling, drawing and other means can be a solid way of grounding oneself and working more fully with the material from the journey itself. I will be an ally in this endeavor and help facilitate this process with you.

Client Testimonial
Ketamine assisted psychotherapy with Hugh Ransley was an important complement to my other, more traditional, therapy. Hugh created a safe and supportive space to release myself to the experience of the medicine and was constantly present to assist during the experience, and also available before and after the experience to prepare and process. The therapeutic benefits that I experienced include more empathy for myself and others, improved relationships with my parents and loved ones, enhanced feelings of love and forgiveness, and more clarity about what is important in my life. The medicine itself has an interesting effect of giving you some separation from your ego and your body, creating an opportunity for self-reflection and learning, and also intention setting. My specific experience was in a small group setting, and while the ketamine experiences were largely individual while under the influence of the medicine, it was valuable to have other people to connect with and collaboratively process what we were experiencing. Hugh was very good at creating a productive space for both individual and group learning. I now view ketamine assisted psychotherapy as a useful modality for maintaining good mental health and a positive self image, especially when used with more traditional "talk therapy".
