A KAP IFS-infused EMDR Retreat at With Me Therapy provides just that—a space for focused, accelerated healing where you can:
- Experience Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) to access deep emotional processing and new perspectives
- Reprocess past trauma through IFS-infused EMDR therapy, allowing for healing at the neurological level
- Heal inner wounds and conflicts with Internal Family Systems (IFS) to restore internal harmony
- Invite God into your healing journey, integrating faith into the therapeutic process
Over several immersive days, you will have the time, support, and space needed to make meaningful breakthroughs that might otherwise take months or years in traditional therapy.
What Makes a KAP IFS-Infused EMDR Retreat Unique?
1. A Multi-Modal Healing Approach
This retreat combines three powerful, evidence-based therapies to create lasting change:
- Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) – Enhances neuroplasticity, quiets the inner critic, and opens new possibilities for self-exploration
- IFS-Infused EMDR Therapy – Rewires how your brain processes trauma, reducing distressing triggers and integrating healing
- Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy – Helps you understand and heal different parts of yourself, bringing internal balance and self-compassion
By integrating these approaches, healing happens faster—many individuals experience profound breakthroughs in a few days that might otherwise take months or years.
2. A Christ-Centered Healing Experience
At With Me Therapy, healing is not just psychological—it is also spiritual. We welcome those who desire a faith-based approach to healing and offer:
- A faith-affirming environment where you can invite God’s presence into your healing
- Guided prayer and reflection, integrating faith with your therapeutic process
- A compassionate space where both science and faith are honored on your healing journey
We believe that true transformation happens when emotional, spiritual, and neurological healing align.
3. A Serene Retreat Setting
Your healing is supported by a peaceful, private retreat center nestled on seven acres of nature:
- Private Suites – A restful, distraction-free space to process and reflect
- A Serene Pond – A peaceful place to sit, canoe, or pray
- Walking Trails & Vineyards – A natural setting for grounding and stillness
- A Pool & Hot Tub – Relaxation spaces to support physical and emotional renewal
This distraction-free environment allows you to fully focus on your healing, away from the stress of everyday life.
Who Can Benefit from a KAP IFS-Infused EMDR Retreat?
This retreat is ideal for individuals who:
- Feel stuck in traditional therapy and need a deeper approach
- Struggle with PTSD, anxiety, depression, or grief
- Feel disconnected from themselves or want to heal unresolved trauma
- Want to combine evidence-based therapy with a faith-based perspective
This retreat is not recommended for individuals with active psychosis, uncontrolled hypertension, or certain heart conditions. Journey Clinical’s medical team will complete a full evaluation to determine if ketamine is a safe option for you.
How Do EMDR, IFS, and KAP Work Together?
Each therapy plays a unique role in your healing journey, working together for deeper, lasting transformation.
- Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) helps quiet the inner critic, increase neuroplasticity, and create space for self-exploration
- IFS-Infused EMDR Therapy rewires how your brain processes painful memories, reducing their emotional hold over you
- IFS Therapy allows you to explore your inner world with self-compassion, bringing peace to different parts of yourself that may be in conflict
Why This Works:
Ketamine opens the mind → IFS-infused EMDR processes trauma → IFS integrates healing into your whole self.
The brain’s natural defenses lower, allowing you to work through painful experiences without feeling overwhelmed.
Healing happens faster—many people experience breakthroughs in days that might otherwise take months or years.
