Feeling the Weight of Assessment Decisions in KAP?

Are you involved in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy and feeling the pressure of making sound assessment decisions—medically, psychologically, and ethically?

Do you find yourself piecing together guidance from different trainings, unsure how it all fits together?

Are you clear on your role in assessment, but still want a more structured, defensible approach?

You’re not alone.

Assessment in KAP is high-stakes, and many clinicians are expected to navigate it without cohesive, modality-specific training.

We See the Challenges

Here’s the reality for many clinicians working with KAP:
  • Fragmented Training: Medical and psychological assessment are often taught separately—or not at all—leaving gaps in understanding.
  • Unclear Boundaries: Questions about scope of practice, collaboration, and responsibility can feel murky.
  • Risk Without Structure: Contraindications, readiness, and consent require careful judgment, not guesswork.
  • Rising Expectations: As KAP becomes more visible, assessment standards matter more than ever.

But it doesn’t have to feel piecemeal or overwhelming.

The Comprehensive KAP Assessment Bundle

Write your awesome label here.
This intermediate-level course bundle brings together  KAP assessment sequence to give you a unified, clinically grounded framework for evaluating patients before ketamine-assisted psychotherapy.

Rather than treating assessment as a checklist or gatekeeping exercise, this bundle emphasizes thoughtful clinical judgment—clarifying how medical eligibility and psychological readiness intersect, and how your role fits within interdisciplinary care.

The goal isn’t to turn you into a medical provider. It’s to help you assess responsibly, collaborate effectively, and proceed with clarity and confidence.

This bundle is delivered as on-demand, video-based home study programs. This bundle offers 2 NBCC credit hours upon completion. Partial credit is not available.

Learning Objectives
Distinguish the respective roles of medical and psychological assessment within ketamine-assisted psychotherapy interdisciplinary teams.
Identify contraindications and key risk factors relevant to determining patient eligibility for ketamine-assisted psychotherapy.
Apply informed consent principles to KAP assessment in a manner consistent with professional scope of practice.
Describe effective strategies for communicating assessment findings to interdisciplinary team members to support patient safety and continuity of care.

What's Included

Presenters

This course is taught by licensed clinicians who actively work with ketamine in real clinical settings.

The instruction integrates academic research, hands-on clinical experience, and careful attention to ethics, safety, and scope of practice. Rather than abstract theory, the teaching is grounded in real assessment decisions—helping clinicians evaluate medical and psychological readiness, assess risk thoughtfully, and proceed with clarity and professional confidence.

Frequently asked questions

Is this bundle only for clinicians who provide ketamine-assisted psychotherapy?

This bundle is designed for licensed mental health professionals who facilitate, support, assess, or collaborate in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. You do not need to be the prescribing or administering provider to benefit from these courses.

Do I need to take Part 1 before Part 2?

The courses are designed to work together, but they can be taken in either order. Many clinicians find it helpful to start with the medical assessment course for context, then move into psychological assessment to see how the pieces integrate.

Will this bundle teach me how to prescribe or administer ketamine?

No. The focus is on assessment, readiness, contraindications, and ethical decision-making. The courses do not provide training on prescribing, administering, or dosing ketamine beyond what is necessary for informed assessment and collaboration.

How is this different from general KAP training programs?

This bundle focuses specifically on assessment—not facilitation techniques or treatment experiences. It’s designed to strengthen clinical judgment, ethical clarity, and interdisciplinary collaboration at the front end of KAP care.

Is this bundle appropriate if I’m newer to ketamine-assisted psychotherapy?

Yes. The bundle is often used as a foundational step for clinicians entering KAP-related work. It provides clear frameworks without assuming advanced medical or psychedelic specialization.

Do you offer accommodations for participants with disabilities?
