Real Stories of Healing Through Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy
At Thrive & Be Well, we believe that healing doesn’t have to take years of talk therapy or endless medication adjustments. Sometimes, meaningful transformation can begin in just a few sessions. That’s the promise of Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), a breakthrough approach that blends modern science with mindful, compassionate care.
In this special panel discussion, clinicians and clients come together to share real stories and insights from their journeys with ketamine therapy. Watch the full video below to hear firsthand how this innovative treatment is changing lives across Missouri and Kansas.
What Is Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)?
KAP combines the rapid-acting antidepressant properties of ketamine with the deep, integrative process of psychotherapy. The goal isn’t just symptom relief, it’s lasting transformation. Clients often describe feeling calmer, more present, and more connected to their authentic selves after treatment. Many experience breakthroughs in trauma healing, anxiety reduction, and emotional regulation where traditional therapies have fallen short.
At Thrive & Be Well, we guide clients through a structured process that includes:
- Preparation sessions to set intention and ensure safety
- Supervised ketamine experiences (in-person or virtual)
- Integration therapy to apply insights to daily life
Healing the Nervous System — and the Whole Person
Panelist and Thrive & Be Well founder Amanda DiMartini, MA, LPC, explains that ketamine therapy works on multiple levels: biological, emotional, and spiritual. Clients report feeling “safe in their body for the first time in decades”, as KAP helps calm the nervous system and create space for deeper self-connection and peace.
Our client described it beautifully:
“I didn’t know I had given up on hope until I started ketamine therapy. I got my hope back — and my life.”

Thrive & Be Well is proud to offer both in-person and remote ketamine-assisted psychotherapy sessions to make healing more accessible for clients across Missouri and Kansas.
