Group Ketamine Retreats
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy: A Daylong Group Retreat Experience
ONE DAY, ONE SHIFT - A NEW WAY FORWARD
Group KAP Retreats, hosted by Andrea Tivers, LCSW & Katie Mason, LCSW are a unique wellness experience that blends the therapeutic potential of ketamine with the power of group connection. While ketamine therapy can be done in one-on-one sessions, many clients find that participating in a small, intimate group setting adds another layer of healing. Sharing the experience with others fosters a sense of connection, reduces feelings of isolation, and creates a supportive community where participants feel safe to explore, reflect, and grow.
Group retreats also allow participants to witness one another’s journeys, which often leads to powerful moments of resonance and shared insight. This combination of individual
inner work and gentle group connection can make the retreat experience deeply meaningful and memorable. This retreat-style program is designed to foster self-exploration, insight around life's challenges, healing, and a sense of belonging.
Please Note: For safety, these groups are not a good fit for those who are not currently working with a therapist or who are experiencing active suicidal ideation, acute alcohol or substance use disorder, mania, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or severe traumatic brain injury. While Group KAP can be transformative, it is not a replacement for traditional therapy or long-term mental health treatment. Participation is not guaranteed, as clinical screening is required to ensure safety and suitability.
Ketamine may bring up challenging emotions or trauma-related memories, so it’s essential to have support in place. If you’re considering this experience and

WOMEN’S RETREAT: COMING HOME TO YOURSELF
A journey into your Inner World
August 28, 2026
Do you spend so much time caring for others or managing life's demands that you've lost touch with your own needs?
Have you achieved what you thought would bring fulfillment, yet still feel something is missing?
Do you sometimes worry that this pace isn’t sustainable — that somewhere along the way you’ve misplaced your joy, your spark, your sense of lightness?
Are you longing for a deeper connection with yourself, your body, and your inner wisdom — but aren’t quite sure how to begin?
If you’re nodding yes, even gently, you’re not alone. And you don’t have to keep carrying it all by yourself.
This retreat is an invitation to pause. To be held. To reconnect with the parts of you that have been quietly waiting for space, care, and renewal.
You do not need to become someone new.
You are invited to remember who you are.

WOMEN’S RETREAT: THE MEDICINE OF SELF-COMPASSION
DECEMBER 11, 2026
-
This upcoming retreat is for women who find themselves stuck in cycles of high-functioning burnout — continuing to show up, care for others, and meet expectations while feeling depleted, disconnected, or quietly overwhelmed inside.
Group ketamine work offers a gentle space to soften self-judgment and reconnect with self-compassion. In a supportive community, participants are invited to witness and be witnessed, to rest in shared humanity, and to remember they are not alone.
This work is especially supportive for women longing to deepen self-acceptance, nurture their inner world, and rediscover their innate worth — the quiet knowing that you are enough.
