Training Description
Join Polaris Insight Center for an advanced workshop where we continue to explore major themes in ketamine- and psychedelic-assisted therapy from prior modules, in order to support clinicians in improving both the quality of their clinical work as well as their own self-care.
We focus on additional special topics in the application of principles and practices of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapies as they relate to the topics of neurotheology (the intersection of spiritual practices and neurophysiology); ketamine and mystical experiences; the relationship between meditation, psychedelics, self-care and improved preparation phase interventions; and the dynamics of the therapy relationship with a particular emphasis on both the intersection of working with symbols and images and subtle intuition within a relational psychoanalytic theoretical perspective and approaches.
Teachings are appropriate for healthcare professionals as well as the general public. Healthcare professionals will be able to incorporate the tools and practices offered in this program in ways beneficial to clients or patients.
Polaris offers modules 1 to 5 ketamine therapy training series. Module 7 can be taken without completing the prior modules.
All modules are taught live online through Zoom. Earn 8 hours of continuing education (CE).
