how it works
our approach
While psychedelic medicine is new, it is research-backed and evidence-based. Leading research institutions are contributing to the growing body of medical literature. Our program is based on this mounting evidence, and is tailored to fit each person. The very first step is to see if this treatment is right for you.
Our process
We take a step-by-step, integrated approach to using ketamine-enhanced psychotherapy to bring you back to life.
Our treatment
Ketamine-enhanced psychotherapy is conducted at lower doses of ketamine than what has been used safely in anaesthesia for decades. Esketamine, a ketamine-derived drug, was the first FDA-approved drug to treat depression in 35 years. Our therapy uses lower doses of ketamine medication in a safe setting alongside psychotherapy. These lower doses can promote better mental health by disrupting thought patterns or loops that may be preventing progress.

Ketamine interacts with some of your brain’s neurotransmitters. Its effects can include relieving anxiety and pain relief, and acting as an antidepressant. Under medical supervision, lower doses of ketamine can relax your mind and allow you to temporarily disengage from your routine thought patterns. When combined with psychotherapy, studies found it can be helpful in reducing anxiety and depression.

It is difficult to describe how taking ketamine feels because every person may react differently to the experience. You may experience a sense of disconnection—that you are observing your mind and body from outside rather than within. The experience has also been described as “euphoric,” “calming,” and “mystical.”

When used in a supervised setting at low doses, ketamine therapy is quite safe. You will have fully trained health professionals at your side throughout your treatment journey. As with any treatment, there are potential risks and side effects. Before beginning your treatment with Field Trip, you will meet with our medical team to ensure it’s a good fit for you.
WHY PSYCHEDELICS?
The psychedelic experience is one of spirited exploration and discovery, both of yourself and the world at large. Thoughtful interactions with our therapists, combined with the ketamine therapy, play a central role. These can be serious yet playful and challenging yet simple. You’ll have the space and time to laugh, cry, and reset in powerful ways.
