Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy

Ketamine is a medicine that has been used for surgical anesthesia in children and adults since the 1960s. It creates a dissociative effect, i.e. the mind feels disconnected from the body. Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) is an incredibly promising approach to the treatment of mental illness. KAP has been studied since its introduction decades ago, though research waned during the ill-conceived "War on Drugs." KAP's principles are similar to those used by many native communities that incorporate naturally-occurring psychedelics into their spiritual, medicinal or community traditions. In acknowledging the wisdom of these ancient communities across the globe, KAP integrates the power of pharmacology with the power of the inner healing intelligence.

(Yes, it sounds hokey -- but we've seen success we can't ignore.)
