Bridging Realities: Integrating Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy and EMDR for Deeper Healing
Guest: Kate Kincaid, LPC, CMHC, PMH-C
On-Demand:Available now in the TTI member library. This conversation was recorded on March 4th, 2026.
This Clinical Conversation is for trauma therapists who are curious about ketamine-assisted work or are beginning to encounter it through clients, referrals, or collaborative care, and want a grounded way to think about integration.
You don’t need to be a ketamine provider.
You don’t need to be “all in.”
If you’re asking:
-
What is actually happening for clients in ketamine-assisted therapy?
-
How do therapists support what comes up without rushing or destabilizing?
-
Where might EMDR fit and where might it not?
-
What questions should I be bringing into consultation or supervision?
You may be:
- Working with clients who are pursuing ketamine treatment outside your practice
- Wondering how to support integration without overstepping your scope
- Curious about how altered states intersect with trauma processing
- Unsure what questions to ask, or what concerns to name, around safety and pacing
- Interested in innovation, but cautious about clinical responsibility
This conversation meets you in that uncertainty.
In this conversation, we’ll explore:
- How ketamine’s unique neurobiological and experiential effects can prepare clients for EMDR reprocessing
- Ways EMDR can help organize and deepen the insights and emotional shifts that emerge in Ketamine‑Assisted Psychotherapy
- Clinical decision points: who might benefit, how to assess readiness, and when not to combine these approaches
- Practical examples of using KAP and EMDR together with clients navigating treatment‑resistant depression, anxiety, OCD, and PTSD
- How does this integration fit into your broader EMDR therapist training, trauma therapist training, and long‑term goals, such as EMDR consultant certification
You’ll walk away with ideas you can bring into consultation, supervision, or your next clinical team meeting.
This isn’t a webinar. It is real talk for real clinicians. Bring your curiosity, your clinical questions about psychedelics, and your real‑world dilemmas from the therapy room.
