Testimonials

My client took a sudden downturn into existential dread, which was understandable given his medical treatments at the time, and the last thing I wanted to do was hospitalize him which would be traumatizing for him. Luckily, he was able to get in right away at Triangle Wellness and Recovery. His response to his single ketamine treatment was remarkable! I am grateful that we now have ketamine as an option can help avoid an admission to a locked facility simply to keep a client safe.

This training has been incredible! I didn't know what to expect and worried about the heaviness of the didactic part, but it was the perfect speed with plenty of space and time for questions in processing. Not only did I feel comfortable in the group, but all the facilitators ensured to normalize the new-ness and potential confusion we all may have experienced. I can confidently say that I will be a more competent and secure therapist when providing KAP now that I've completed the first part of the training with the experiential component.

These were 2 excellent training days. All of the presentations were very informative and interesting. The graphics were also terrific. And the experiential part seems essential to an in-depth understanding of Ketamine, so I appreciate that opportunity. I also appreciate the embracing of the medical and psychological/emotional components of KAP. Basically, an excellent, comprehensive training.
