The Course of Treatment

Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy begins with an intake session to explore your history and eligibility for treatment. We will then meet for a minimum of two preparation sessions prior to working with the medicine, and at least one integration session after each medicine session. If you are currently working with a long-term therapist, it may be sufficient to meet with that provider for integration. We will discuss this together and figure out what makes the most sense.

You will also undergo a medical intake and screening, scheduled and billed directly by our partnering physician. Depending on the length of your treatment, you might with meet with the doctor for a short medication check again later on in your treatment.

Your treatment plan is highly individualized and we will continue to assess your needs throughout, however a typical course of treatment entails 4-8 KAP sessions in addition to the intake, preparation and integration sessions. You may wish to come in for periodic maintenance sessions in the future.

Psychedelic Integration Therapy sessions are 45-50 minutes. The frequency of sessions and length of your treatment will depend on many factors. Together we will figure out a plan that makes sense for your needs.

Insurance

We do not accept any private insurance. As out-of-network providers, we can work with you to determine the best course of treatment and are not beholden to your insurance company’s limitations or required to label you with a diagnosis.

Many private insurances will reimburse you for a portion of your session fees (known as out-of-network benefits). We ask that you look into whether you may be covered for an out-of-network therapist before inquiring about a sliding scale. You may begin by calling the number on the back of your card and asking the following questions:

  • Do I have out-of-network coverage for psychotherapy? (They might ask you the medical billing code, which is 90834 for a 45-minute individual therapy session and 90837 for a 60-minute individual therapy session. It is recommended you ask for information about both codes).

  • Is a prior authorization needed?

  • Is there a deductible? If so, how much of my deductible has already been met?

  • Am I limited on how many times I can see my therapist within the year?

  • How much will I be reimbursed for?

  • What is the process for submitting for reimbursement? What paperwork needs to be completed and where do I send this to?

Once confirmed that you have out-of-network benefits, your therapist can provide a monthly statement which you may submit for reimbursement.

Please note: The administration of ketamine for mental health concerns is currently not covered by insurance companies, as this is still considered an off-label use. We are aware that this may be a significant out-of-pocket investment for you. 

However, you may be able to seek some reimbursement for the preparatory and integration sessions (as those can be billed as psychotherapy and medication management services), as well as the final hour of the journey session, and we can provide you with billing statements to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement if you have out-of-network benefits.
