Relationships can be one of the most rewarding and challenging parts of our lives. For many of us, navigating the pressures of modern relationships—career demands, family planning, financial stress, past traumas, —can feel overwhelming. If you’ve ever thought, “I love my partner, but we just can’t seem to connect the way we used to,” you’re not alone.
Enter couples ketamine-assisted therapy—a groundbreaking approach to healing and growth that’s designed to help you and your partner reconnect, communicate, and thrive together.
What Is Couples Ketamine-Assisted Therapy?
At its core, this therapy combines the transformative effects of ketamine with expert therapeutic guidance to help couples strengthen their bond. Ketamine, administered in a safe and controlled environment, allows you to access a deeper level of introspection and emotional openness, while a therapist helps you process these insights and work through challenges as a team.
This isn’t your typical “sit on the couch and hash it out” therapy. It’s dynamic, eye-opening, and designed to break through the walls that can feel impossible to overcome in traditional settings.
Why This Approach Works
Here’s how ketamine-assisted therapy can make a difference in your relationship:
Breaking Down Barriers
Ketamine creates a state of openness that helps partners let go of defensiveness and fear. It’s like clearing away the noise so you can truly hear and feel each other again.
Seeing Your Relationship in a New Light
One of ketamine’s unique effects is its ability to shift perspective. Imagine being able to step back and see your relationship through fresh, compassionate eyes. This clarity can be life-changing for couples stuck in repetitive conflicts.
Healing Past Wounds
For couples carrying individual or shared traumas, ketamine provides a supportive space to process those experiences together. It’s an opportunity to create healing, not just for yourself, but for your partnership.
Deepening Intimacy
Emotional intimacy is the foundation of a strong relationship, but it can get lost in the day-to-day grind. Ketamine-assisted therapy helps partners rediscover that spark by fostering vulnerability, empathy, and connection.
Better Communication
Let’s be real—communication is hard. This therapy helps you express your needs and navigate conflicts without falling into the same old patterns. It’s not about “fixing” your relationship; it’s about building a new foundation where both partners feel seen and heard.
If you’ve been feeling disconnected or unsure how to move forward in your relationship, this approach offers hope—and tangible results. It’s not about who’s right or wrong. It’s about growing together and creating a relationship that feels fulfilling and aligned.
What to Expect at Koru Wellness
In a couples ketamine-assisted therapy session, you and your partner will work with a trained therapist in a safe, supportive environment. We offer two unique session types tailored to the needs of each couple: Solo Sessions and Dual Sessions.
In a Solo Session, one partner receives a ketamine dose while the other takes on a supportive role. This allows the dosed partner to explore their emotions and process deeply rooted feelings, with their partner acting as a safe and grounding presence. The experience strengthens trust and creates space for vulnerability and connection.
In a Dual Session, both partners receive a ketamine dose simultaneously, allowing them to process shared challenges or relational dynamics together. This approach can foster mutual understanding and open up new ways of communicating and connecting.
Unlike private ketamine therapy, couples sessions require more preparation before the dosing phase. Adequate time is dedicated to preparation work to ensure both partners feel safe, aligned, and ready to engage in the process. This groundwork is crucial to creating an experience that promotes healing and strengthens the bond between partners.
