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: THE WISDOM WITHIN
Remember. Reveal. Reclaim.
August 28, 2026

  • The Wisdom Within
    Remember. Reveal. Reclaim.

    There are moments in life when we lose connection to ourselves — beneath the stress, the striving, the caregiving, the grief, and the noise. We begin searching anywhere we can for relief, clarity, or healing.

    This retreat is an invitation to return to the wisdom within.

    Through a carefully held day of ketamine-assisted psychotherapy — woven with intentional preparation, guided meditation, and spacious reflection — we create the conditions for something rare and lasting. You will be invited to put down what you have been carrying, remember what you have always known about yourself, reveal the strengths and colors that have been dimmed by the demands of life, and reclaim the sense of self that is rightfully, fully yours.

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.
