Ketamine-Assisted Therapy in Marin County
A grounded, supportive approach to ketamine-assisted therapy for adults in Marin County, San Rafael, and surrounding California communities.
A Different Kind of Support
Ketamine-assisted therapy can offer support for people who feel stuck in depression, anxiety, trauma patterns, grief, or long-standing emotional pain. For some clients, it can create a temporary shift in perspective that makes it easier to explore what has felt difficult to access in regular talk therapy.
This work is not about escaping your life or forcing a breakthrough. It is a therapeutic process that combines careful preparation, guided support, and integration so the experience can be understood and applied in daily life.
For clients in Marin County, San Rafael, Berkeley, the East Bay, and across California through telehealth when appropriate, ketamine-assisted therapy may be part of a broader path toward healing, self-understanding, and nervous system repair.
How Ketamine-Assisted Therapy Works
Ketamine is a legal medicine that may be prescribed by a qualified medical provider. In a therapeutic setting, it is used alongside psychotherapy to support emotional processing, insight, and greater flexibility in how you relate to yourself and your experiences.
The therapy process often includes preparation sessions before the medicine experience, support around intentions and safety, and integration sessions afterward. Integration is where much of the lasting work happens. It helps you make sense of what came up and connect it to your relationships, patterns, choices, and inner healing.
Ketamine-assisted therapy is not a quick fix. It works best when held within a thoughtful clinical relationship, with attention to your history, current needs, support system, and emotional readiness.
A Somatic and Mindful Approach
This work is supported by Somatic Mindfulness Therapy rooted in Buddhist practice, nervous system awareness, and a Polyvagal-informed understanding of regulation. Rather than focusing only on thoughts, therapy also includes the body’s signals, protective responses, and capacity for safety.
Many people seeking ketamine-assisted therapy in Marin County are carrying trauma, chronic stress, attachment wounds, or years of trying to manage symptoms alone. A somatic approach can help you notice what is happening inside without rushing, judging, or overriding your experience.
Depending on your needs, sessions may also draw from Internal Family Systems, EMDR-informed care, Brainspotting, Hakomi, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing, DBT, CBT, and relational therapy. The goal is to support both insight and embodied change.
Who This Work May Help
Ketamine-assisted therapy may be considered by adults dealing with depression, anxiety, complex trauma, grief, relational anxiety, spiritual emergence, midlife transitions, or patterns that have not shifted through talk therapy alone. It may also be helpful for people who feel disconnected from themselves or caught in repeated cycles of fear, shame, or self-criticism.
This care can be especially meaningful when paired with integration work that honors the whole person. That includes your body, relationships, identity, nervous system, cultural background, spiritual life, and lived experience.
Therapy is offered with respect for LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, poly/kink-affirming, and spiritually diverse clients. The work is also approached through a harm-reduction lens, with clear attention to emotional safety, informed consent, and scope of care.
Serving Marin County and Beyond
Ketamine-assisted therapy support is available for clients in Marin County, including San Rafael, Mill Valley, Fairfax, Larkspur, Corte Madera, Sausalito, Novato, and nearby communities. Telehealth therapy and integration support may also be available for clients in Berkeley, the East Bay, and throughout California where clinically appropriate.
For clients outside California, psychedelic integration support may be available virtually depending on location and clinical fit. This can be especially helpful after a ketamine, psychedelic, or non-ordinary state experience that needs careful reflection and grounding.
Taking the next step toward ketamine-assisted therapy can feel vulnerable. A steady therapeutic container can help you prepare thoughtfully, move at a pace that respects your nervous system, and integrate the experience into meaningful, sustainable change.
