Katherine Fitz, RCH, RN, BA

In my work with psychedelic integration clients as a Registered Nurse and Registered Clinical Hypnotherapist, I draw on my education and experience with TheraPsil to follow a structured yet flexible approach that facilitates their healing journey. I operate in an online setting. Here’s how I structure the sessions: 1. Initial Assessment: The first session typically involves a comprehensive assessment of the client's background, health history, and goals for integration. This helps establish a therapeutic rapport and better understanding of their unique needs. 2. Psychoeducation: I educate clients about the psychedelic experience, discussing its potential effects, benefits, and challenges. This sets the groundwork for informed and safe integration. 3. Hypnotherapy Sessions: Over the course of approximately six sessions, I utilize hypnotherapy to help clients access deeper insights from their experiences. These sessions can focus on: - Exploring themes and emotions that emerged during their psychedelic experience. - Addressing any fears or resistance that may arise. - Reinforcing positive insights and promoting self-compassion. 4. Integration Techniques: I guide clients in developing practical strategies to incorporate their insights into daily life. This may include journaling, mindfulness practices, or creating action plans to apply newfound perspectives. 5. Supportive Environment: I provide a safe and supportive space for clients to express their thoughts and feelings. My presence fosters trust, allowing them to process their experiences openly. 6. Check-Ins: Regular check-ins between sessions can be beneficial. This could involve brief follow-ups via messaging or scheduled calls to offer ongoing support and address any immediate concerns. 7. Closure and Future Planning: In the final sessions, I help clients reflect on their journey, solidifying insights gained and planning for continued growth post-integration. If the client is interested, I teach a self-hypnosis technique. I may also discuss resources or support networks they can engage with. My compassionate and structured approach combines the rapid results possible through hypnotherapy with the support needed for meaningful integration, ensuring clients feel empowered throughout their healing process.
