As interest in psychedelic medicine grows, more clinicians are exploring ketamine-assisted therapy. However, working with non-ordinary states of consciousness presents unique ethical considerations and requires specialized training.

Without a solid grounding in best practices, clinicians risk providing suboptimal care, facing legal liabilities, or contributing to the stigmatization of these powerful therapeutic modalities.

This comprehensive training equips you with the knowledge and tools to confidently navigate the ethical complexities of ketamine therapy. You'll gain insights into fostering safe therapeutic relationships, upholding professional responsibilities, and championing an integrative, trauma-informed approach to care.

By the end of this course, you'll be able to:

  • Analyze at least three ethical considerations specific to ketamine-assisted therapy in counseling practice.

  • Demonstrate strategies for establishing and maintaining a safe therapeutic alliance within the context of ketamine-assisted therapy

  • Formulate a plan for ongoing professional development in the evolving field of psychedelic-assisted therapies
