I
Prepare
Before any medicine, we get to know you and make sure ketamine is safe for you.
I.1
Free 15-minute consult
Text “SomaVerse” to (785) 615-1995 or send us a note. A ketamine-assisted psychotherapist or guide will reach out to hear what you’re hoping for and answer questions.
I.2
Medical evaluation
A medical provider reviews your health history, medications, blood pressure and mental health history. Your first visit may be in person or by secure video, depending on current DEA and state rules.
I.3
Therapy readiness assessment
You’ll meet with a ketamine-trained therapist to talk through goals, history and support, and decide together which format fits: one-on-one, group or retreat.
I.4
Guide preparation
A ketamine wellness guide helps you shape an intention, plan your setting and music, and know exactly what to expect on the day.
II
Journey
The dosing session itself: unhurried, held, and built around your intention.
II.1
Settle in
At any of our offices in Lawrence, Overland Park or Topeka. Once you’ve completed the main program and are medically approved, sessions may continue at home with a sober support person. Blood pressure is checked, and you get comfortable with an eye shade, blanket and playlist.
II.2
The troche
You let a compounded ketamine troche dissolve under your tongue or in your cheek for several minutes. Effects build gradually over 20–40 minutes.
II.3
The experience
Many people feel deeply relaxed, see imagery, revisit memories with less fear, or feel spacious and connected. Your therapist or guide stays present the whole time.
II.4
Return gently
As effects ease over an hour or two, you’ll talk through what surfaced. You’ll need a ride home and shouldn’t drive for the rest of the day. A medical check-in follows every dose.
III
Integrate
Where insight becomes the way you live.
III.1
Integration sessions
One-on-one sessions with your therapist or guide in the days after dosing, while the experience is fresh and the mind is often more flexible.
III.2
Integration groups
Small, 60-minute circles ($20) where people share what surfaced and how they’re living differently. Community is part of the medicine.
III.3
Practices at home
Somatic grounding, journaling, inner dialogue and nature walks from our journey resources help insights take root between sessions.
III.4
Review and adjust
Your team checks progress throughout and adjusts your plan, whether that means more sessions, a pause, maintenance doses or finishing well.
