At Trailhead, we stand at the forefront of innovative psychotherapy, offering transformative healing experiences rooted in cutting-edge scientific advancements and deep empathic understanding. We proudly introduce Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), which is steered by our unique and scientifically grounded therapy approach: the Acceptance, Connection, and Embodiment (ACE) Model for KAP. This groundbreaking initiative is an integral part of our partnerships with the esteemed Boise Ketamine Clinic.
Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)
In the transformative realm of psychotherapy, KAP emerges as a pioneering therapy, intertwining the potent pharmacological effects of ketamine with intensive psychotherapeutic guidance. Ketamine, a well-known anesthetic agent, has shown remarkable potential in therapy due to its ability to create new neural pathways in the brain, enhance neural plasticity, and potentially reset neural networks associated with depressive symptoms, thus facilitating profound personal growth and healing.

Acceptance, Connection, and Embodiment (ACE) Model for KAP
The ACE Model for KAP is grounded in the concept of psychological flexibility, offering a transformative pathway towards personal growth and healing. This approach is based on three core principles:
- Acceptance: During the therapy sessions, clients learn to navigate their internal landscapes with a stance of acceptance, fostering an ability to allow the presence of uncontrollable factors without resistance. This fundamental aspect of the therapy aids in freeing individuals from the confines of their distress, enabling a deeper connection with what truly matters to them.
- Connection: Building upon the foundation of acceptance, clients are guided to forge connections with their core values. This step is instrumental in helping individuals identify and align with what they genuinely value, facilitating the creation of a fulfilling life filled with meaning and purpose.
- Embodiment: The final stage involves embodying the principles of acceptance and connection in daily life. Although life's circumstances may not alter, clients acquire the skill to cultivate a rich, meaningful existence, adept at navigating the complexities of life with resilience and grace.
By utilizing the transformative power of ketamine, clients embark on a journey where inner experiences are bridged with external realities, fostering a life that transcends the limitations imposed by distressing circumstances.
