KAH should be understood as a helpful catalyst in ongoing psychotherapy and, especially in cases of long-term depression, can open a window of opportunity for valuable therapeutic interventions. The trance state evoked by hypnosis is a helpful complement to the dissociative ketamine state. In this altered state of consciousness, free from usual thinking patterns, beliefs, and emotions, enriched by completely new experiences, possibilities, and permissions, it becomes easier to perceive, recognize, and change stuck life patterns.
KAH stands for "Ketamine assisted Hypnotherapy." This therapeutic approach, which combines the potentials of ketamine infusion therapy, hypnosis and psychotherapy, can be highly effective to treat several conditions like depression, suicidal ideation, anxiety, compulsions, trauma, PTSD, eating disorders, addictions, and pain or, in general, to loosen rigid neural structures and promote new connections.
The effects last for days to months, sometimes even years. Ketamine apparently improves neuroplasticity. Clients thus are more open to psychotherapy and long-term change.
Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic that we administer as an infusion under medical supervision and within a very gentle, protective setting. With an effect duration of approximately 40 to 50 minutes, Ketamine produces a change in consciousness on several levels: Mental, emotional, as well as physical sensations can break free from their everyday, even stuck structures and comprehensively re-sort themselves through the gentle, yet targeted, impulses of the accompanying hypnotherapeutic guidance. Ketamine, like other psychoactive substances, seems to increase suggestibility, and thus also opens access and contact to the unconscious.
Afraid of “letting go”?
Often clients are very afraid of "letting go," that is, of the loss of control associated with ketamine. For this very reason, the ketamine infusion is prepared, accompanied and afterwards integrated by hypnosis and psychotherapy.
We place a very high value on a trusting client-therapist relationship and that you feel personally supported, protected and guided throughout the whole process. Therefore you don't need to be afraid of being alone with the potentially very intense feelings, perceptions and insights.
Ultimately, the goal is to allow and leverage these very same sensations to unfold their transformative potential.
How does the procedure look like?
Preliminary consultation and determination of suitability

Ketamine infusion of about 50 minutes with hypnotic and deep psychological guidance.
Integration: Recapture of the extraordinary experience and insights to integrate it into your everyday life.
Repetition: Individualized treatment with a series of repeated KAH sessions oriented on the client's process.
Although a smaller number of applications is possible, at least 6 KAH sessions are recommended, with one session consisting of preparation, hypnotherapy-guided ketamine infusion, and an integration session. The treatment can be intensive or stretched over a longer period of time.
