What Is Ketamine-Assisted Therapy?
Ketamine-assisted therapy combines the dissociative effects of ketamine with guided psychotherapy. Unlike traditional antidepressants, which can take weeks to work, ketamine often provides relief within hours to days, even for treatment-resistant mental health struggles.
During a session, low-dose ketamine alters consciousness—loosening rigid thought patterns and helping clients access deep emotional material. With the support of a trained therapist, clients are guided through expanded states of awareness where healing, reframing, and emotional breakthroughs become possible.
Why LGBTQIA+ Clients Turn to Ketamine Therapy
For many in the LGBTQIA+ community, mental health struggles stem from more than just brain chemistry. We carry the weight of rejection, societal pressure, internalized shame, and unresolved trauma. And we often do it silently.
Ketamine-assisted therapy gives the brain and body space to reset—helping clients unhook from old stories, regulate their nervous systems, and reconnect with who they truly are beneath the pain.
At iAmClinic, we don’t just supervise your sessions—we walk with you, integrating every insight into your lived experience.
Who Is a Good Fit for Ketamine-Assisted Therapy?

- You’re living with depression, anxiety, or PTSD
- You’re struggling with suicidal thoughts or emotional numbness
- You feel trapped in repetitive, negative thought loops
- You want a deeply therapeutic experience rooted in queer-affirming care
Our clinical team will work with you to determine your readiness, safety, and ideal treatment plan. Every session is trauma-informed, medically supervised, and designed around your autonomy and consent.

What Makes Ketamine Therapy at iAmClinic Different?

All ketamine sessions are conducted under the supervision of licensed providers and clinicians trained in psychedelic care, trauma sensitivity, and LGBTQIA+ cultural competence.
3. Deep Integration—Not Just a One-Off Trip
We support you through preparation, dosing, and post-session integration—so the insights you gain turn into boundaries, confidence, and lasting emotional shifts.
4. Respect for Autonomy, Choice & Safety
Power dynamics and agency matter. We uphold strict ethical frameworks, giving you full control over your healing experience.
5. Whole-Person, Intersectional Healing
Your queerness. Your race. Your neurodivergence. Your faith history. We hold space for it all. Because healing isn’t one-dimensional—and neither are you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Ketamine is FDA-approved for medical use and can be legally administered for mental health treatment under professional supervision.
Many clients report mood improvements within 24–72 hours after their first session. Long-term change is supported through ongoing integration therapy.
No. Ketamine creates a dissociative, dreamlike state, but you remain aware. Your therapist helps anchor and support you the entire time.
Treatment plans vary, but many clients begin with 4–6 sessions, supported by prep and integration work to ensure long-term benefits.
Yes. Ketamine has shown remarkable results in rapidly reducing suicidal ideation and emotional numbness.
Ketamine is a non-traditional option that works on different pathways in the brain. If you’ve tried SSRIs or therapy without success, this might be worth exploring.
Currently, most insurance plans do not cover ketamine therapy, though HSA/FSA accounts can often be used. We offer flexible payment options.
Integration is highly encouraged. It’s where insights become change. We tailor this phase to your life—whether it’s boundaries, body trust, or healing family patterns.
Often, yes—but it depends on the medications you’re taking. Our clinical team will do a thorough intake to ensure that your current treatments are compatible with ketamine. We also encourage clients to continue regular therapy alongside integration support for the best results.
Most clients describe it as a dreamlike or expanded state of consciousness. You may feel relaxed, emotionally open, or detached from your usual thought patterns. Each person’s experience is unique, and we prepare you ahead of time to navigate it with intention and support.
Some clients do report profound spiritual insights or feelings of connection during ketamine sessions. Others experience deep emotional processing or clarity without a spiritual lens. We welcome all interpretations and meet you wherever you are in your journey.
Ketamine temporarily quiets the brain’s default mode network, which is often overactive in people with trauma. This creates space for new emotional insights, relief from repetitive thoughts, and deeper self-compassion—especially around gender, sexuality, and past wounds.
Due to the nature of ketamine and ethical safety protocols, sessions are conducted in person at our clinic. This ensures medical oversight and emotional support throughout the process.
You’ll work closely with your therapist to clarify your goals, create a safe internal mindset, and plan for the session day (including nutrition, rest, and grounding tools). You’ll never go in unprepared—we guide you every step of the way.
