Episode 600: Advice and Insights About Ketamine Therapy with Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, Kristin Arden

Make Some Noise with Andrea Owen

Before we get into today’s episode, I have a private podcast feed for anyone interested in my journey through psychedelic therapy. I’m starting with Ketamine therapy and then moving into Psilocybin. It’s free and just like the regular podcast, but you do need to sign up to be notified.

Is Ketamine Therapy right for you? And what does it actually feel like during a session? Joining me to discuss its workings, sensations, and post-session integration is Kristin Arden, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, and Lead Clinician at Mindbloom.

Previously on the podcast, we heard from my friend Brendan Fitzgibbons about his Ketamine Therapy experience. This time, I'm thrilled to introduce you to Kristin, a healthcare professional working directly in the field of Ketamine Therapy. Kristin addresses key questions like when to consider this therapy, detailing what a session entails and its effects.

You’ll hear:

• What is ketamine therapy, and how it works (7:27)
• Kristin answers, “Is ketamine therapy for everyone? When should one consider it?” (14:11)
• What a typical session looks like and what it feels like (18:48)
• The integration and therapy after a ketamine therapy session; it’s not a passive process (22:31)
• Dispelling misconceptions or myths about ketamine therapy (30:03)
• Advice for someone considering ketamine therapy as part of their mental health or personal growth treatment plan (38:40)
