The Power Of Ketamine Assisted Brainspotting (KAB)

KAB is the pairing of two revolutionary therapies – Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy and Brainspotting.

On their own, each is a powerful tool to help your clients, but together they create the ultimate breakthrough in trauma healing.

Understandably, the thought of incorporating ketamine assisted therapy into your practice might raise some questions and concerns.

It’s a step into new territory, but you’re not taking it alone.

ARE YOU READY TO REVOLUTIONIZE YOUR CARE?

Hi, I’m Dr. Nicolette Bautista.

Founder and developer of the
Ketamine Assisted Brainspotting technique.

When I came across Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy in early 2019, I felt completely blown away.

The research was so compelling that I knew I had to be part of this movement.

It made me feel as excited and on fire as when I first discovered Brainspotting and became certified in 2016.

Everything changed.

Bringing together Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy and Brainspotting has taken my practice to the next level. I’ve seen clients respond in ways and at a speed I never could have imagined. It’s reignited the love I have for being a therapist.

Talk therapy has its place, but it’s easy to feel frustrated and overwhelmed with clients who are stuck in their trauma. I get it – it’s easy to lose passion for the essential work we do when we feel like we’re not making a difference.

 

Along the way to developing KAB, I had to learn everything from A-Z.

Everything from the clinical protocols to use with my clients to how to reorganize my appointment calendar and who I needed on my team to make this safe and effective for my clients.

Luckily, I documented everything, so you don’t need to take the same lengthy journey that I had to.

The KAP Wellness comprehensive approach goes beyond clinical training. It provides a roadmap for seamlessly and safely integrating ketamine and KAB into your practice and redefining your business model for the modern wellness landscape.

So you can watch your clients recover faster and respond to therapy more comfortably, and do this with the support you deserve as a therapist.

Ketamine-Assisted Brainspotting Consultation Groups

Working with cutting-edge therapy can be isolating. Especially when you’re seeing stunning observations and never-before-seen client experiences. 

So, we’ve established Consultation Groups for any clinician who’s trained in brainspotting, (minimal Phase I), and doing KAP, or trained in brainspotting and starting KAP training.

Note, this is not a brainspotting training. You must have completed Phase I brainspotting to benefit.

 

  • Monthly online community 
  • Talk through tough cases
  • Keep updated with developments in the field
  • Get support from KAP-experienced clinicians. 
  • Groups limited to 6 participants

We will meet for four consecutive months for 90 minutes online. Each session is recorded, so you can still get the benefit of our experiences if you can’t attend.

Creative Interventions in KAP

Coming soon!

Be willing to explore your creative side that enhances the science. We will discuss where to begin and explore novel interventions to help clients move through and get unstuck. Step into new possibilities!

Presented by Carolin Gardner, LMFT, LPCC

The science is an important part of how and why we do therapy. Interventions are rooted in research and proven efficacy. But what happens when never-before-experienced moments that need attention are outside the scientific framework? Therapy should be part scientific and part creative. How you blend these two makes you who you are as a therapist. 

Who can attend your training, and other questions you may have

Ketamine Assisted Brainspotting (KAB)  is a combination of Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy with Brainspotting therapy techniques that have been developed by Dr Nicolette Bautista. Learn more about KAB here

Ketamine Assisted Brainspotting (KAB) training and support is perfect for therapists or clinicians who know or are learning Brainspotting and want to start using ketamine in their practice. It’s not essential to have certifications in these fields before coming to our training. Our training is also suitable for any clinician who is working with ketamine.

Intake consultations and integration therapy sessions can be billed to insurance using standard therapy codes. However, insurance does not cover dosing sessions, meaning clients who use insurance incur some out-of-pocket expenses. As insurance companies recognize the cost savings associated with KAP, they will likely start covering more of these services in the future. Our clients consistently report a significant reduction in symptoms after just one to two KAP sessions, which is a sharp contrast to the years, or even decades, they spent in traditional therapy. Since insurance companies are driven by profit, it’s only a matter of time before they decide to limit payment for long-term traditional treatments when effective solutions like KAP lead to symptom remission within months.
Clients with major depression, bipolar disorder, generalized anxiety, OCD, PTSD, and Bereavement/Grief, dissociative disorder, all benefit from KAP and KAB. Clients with substance use disorders, who have completed detox and are sober for at least 30 days, have also benefited from KAP.

Clients can expect a range of experiences and benefits, including:
– Rapid reduction or remission of depression and anxiety symptoms, often in one session.
– Profound ability of the brain to reconcile trauma and move towards peaceful resolution
– Enlightened resolution of past regrets
– Notable shifts in self-perception, relationships, and worldview
– Decrease in negative or obsessive thoughts
– Increased self-acceptance and self-compassion
– Increased creativity and cognitive flexibility
– Relaxation, decreased need for control, openness to experience
– A broader outlook on challenging situations and problems
– Reduction of fear and disruption of painful memories
– Improved neuroplasticity and nerve regeneration
– Improved ability to experience happiness and pleasure
– Reduction of avoidance behaviors
– The potential to have a spiritual or transcendental experience

No. Our training is all online and suitable for anyone, anywhere in the world.

Absolutely! The saying & “You cannot take your client further than you have gone” truly resonates with Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), but there is more to this. KAP is a profound journey of personal growth. Ketamine floods the brain with brain-derived neurotrophic factor, a potent enhancer of dendrites and synaptic connections. It interrupts slower thalamocortical pathways and dramatically enhances neuroplasticity. It expands how you think. Every therapist should experience this firsthand. Engaging in personal KAP sessions equips your mind to better navigate and support the transformative experiences your clients will face during their sessions.
