Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy in Bend: Trusted Therapist Partners

A referral guide for pairing medical ketamine treatment with experienced KAP-trained counselors in Central Oregon.

Ketamine therapy tends to work best when it's paired with the right support before and after each session. At Flow Wellness in Bend, our clinical team administers ketamine treatment (IV, IM, and at-home oral protocols) under the supervision of Dr. Kevin Jones, MD. Many patients also choose to work with a local therapist who specializes in Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) to help them prepare for sessions and process what comes up afterward.

Below is a list of Bend-area therapists who incorporate ketamine into their practice. Each one runs an independent practice with its own intake process, fees, and availability. Some maintain waiting lists, so it's worth reaching out to more than one if needed.

What Is Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy?

KAP pairs a ketamine session with structured therapeutic support. A trained therapist helps you set an intention before treatment (preparation), and meets with you again afterward to talk through what came up during the experience (integration). The goal is to turn that window for change into something lasting, instead of a one-time experience.

Why Patients Pair Medical Ketamine Treatment with a KAP Therapist

• Dedicated time to set intentions before each treatment session
• A trained guide to help you process emotions, memories, or insights afterward
• Continuity of care between your medical provider and your mental health provider
• Help carrying what comes up in a session into everyday life

Flow Wellness handles the medical side of treatment, including clinical evaluation, dosing, and monitored administration. The therapists below provide the preparation and integration counseling that complements it.
