Understanding Maintenance Ketamine Therapy: A Live Q&A

Determining if and when a client needs ‘maintenance’ ketamine-assisted therapy takes clinical judgment — and every client’s path looks different. How do you recognize when maintenance is indicated? How do you help a client understand what they may experience as they move from an index course into ongoing treatment? And how do you support that range of individual response, session to session, client to client?
Join Derek Rothe, NP, and Lisa Kemp, Director of Operations, RN, for an open, conversational Q&A exploring the clinical reasoning behind maintenance protocols — designed for practitioners currently offering ketamine-assisted therapy, or considering adding it to their practice. Current and prospective clients are welcome to attend as well and will come away with a clearer understanding of what maintenance treatment involves in Ketamine Assisted Therapy.
We’ll cover:
- How providers determine whether maintenance treatment makes sense for someone
- What shapes a maintenance schedule (and why it looks different for everyone)
- Common concerns, including cost, scheduling, and long-term safety
- What ongoing therapy and support look like once a client moves into a maintenance phase
- How and when to consider tapering a client off maintenance altogether
This is a safe, welcoming space to ask honest questions — bring your own, or just come to listen.
Time will be reserved for live audience Q&A at the end.
