POLARIS INSIGHT CENTER Integration Module: Ketamine & Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy Training

POLARIS INSIGHT CENTER
INTEGRATION MODULE

Ketamine & Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy Training : Theory + Practice

Live-Online

COURSE DESCRIPTION

This module focuses on the theory and practice of integration in ketamine- and NOSC-assisted therapies with a particular emphasis on non-verbal and verbal processing, self-reflection, and group sharing. Clinicians will be provided with practical considerations, and understanding of common challenges, and a basic framework through which to orient themselves and their clients to meaningful KAP integration. In addition, the webinar will explore the importance of the imaginal realm in work with expanded states of consciousness and their integration into daily life. Through the vehicle of expressive arts and other modalities, this webinar will help clinicians better understand the processes of supporting clients in digesting, embodying and applying the insights and lessons learned while doing depth exploratory work.

I’ll be guiding an afternoon meditation and sound journey as part of our experiential learning, before the mandala workshop.

Teachings are appropriate for healthcare professionals as well as the general public.
Healthcare professionals will be able to incorporate the tools and practices offered in this program in ways beneficial to clients or patients.
