Psychedelic experiences can open doors to profound healing, insight, and inner wisdom. But without integration, those breakthroughs can fade or feel confusing. At KellyBearer.com, I offer Psychedelic Therapy Integration sessions for individuals in Boulder, CO and beyond, helping you turn altered state experiences into lasting transformation.
What Is Psychedelic Integration?
Whether you’ve worked with ketamine, psilocybin, MDMA, ayahuasca, or other plant medicines, psychedelic integration bridges the gap between the expanded consciousness of your journey and the grounded, embodied changes you want in your daily life.
Integration is not just about processing—it’s about embodying the insights, healing unresolved trauma, and rewiring your nervous system to support who you’re becoming.
Integration Support for Every Phase of the Journey
I offer support both before and after your psychedelic sessions, whether you’re working with a legal provider or exploring your own spiritual path.
Before Your Journey:
-
Set powerful, soul-aligned intentions
-
Prepare your nervous system for safety and openness
-
Address emotional blocks, fears, or resistance
-
Create sacred structure around your ceremony or session
After Your Journey:
-
Make sense of your experience through a trauma-informed lens
-
Identify key themes, messages, and inner parts
-
Rewire limiting beliefs at the subconscious level through hypnotherapy
-
Integrate insights into your relationships, work, and daily life
-
Ground spiritually expansive states into the body

How Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy Works
Initial Consultation
Schedule an initial evaluation with our medical team via zoom to determine if you are eligible for KAP. If you qualify, a small amount of oral ketamine will be sent to your home, enough for the first 2 KAP sessions.
Preparation Session
Preparation sessions will be scheduled just like regular therapy sessions prior to the KAP dosing session. The goal of a preparation session is to align the process and set intentions for our KAP sessions together.
KAP Dosing Session
A typical ketamine dosing session lasts between 1-2 hours and can take place either in-person at my office, or remotely via telehealth.
Integration Session
After our KAP dosing session, we will meet for multiple integration therapy sessions to review the memories, thoughts & insights that arose during your dosing session, and to prepare for the next dosing session.
Follow-up Consultations
After our first KAP session, our medical team schedules regular follow-ups with you to monitor outcomes and prescribe ketamine lozenge refills, as appropriate.
