Treatment of Dissociation and Ketamine-based Therapy:
A Case(s) Study
Live Webinar: March 1st, 2024
About This Webinar
Patients with histories of trauma and dissociative symptoms often present with significant and layered complexity. The trajectory of treatment is long and complex, and pre-established goals usually occur in short intervals. Although research has contributed to significant advances in treatment outcomes for patients with dissociative symptoms, the duration and severity of distress remain a feature of the clinical picture. Interventions that combine traditional psychotherapy with innovative approaches have the potential to reduce the overall duration and cost of patient treatment. Ketamine and psilocybin could have the potential to completely change the trajectory of treatment, given the research that is emerging for patients with treatment-resistant depression. Although these interventions may be very promising, equally concerning is the risk potential arising from their application to people with complex trauma and structural dissociation. Heather is a fictional client who represents a several people who have dissociative disorders and have undergone ketamine treatment as an intervention.
Participants will be able to...
- Discuss potential treatment outcomes of using ketamine with patients with dissociative symptoms.
- Identify potential risks of using ketamine treatment with patients with dissociative symptoms.
- Discuss the importance of pursuing further research on the use of ketamine as an intervention for patients with dissociative symptoms.
- Talk about cultural rejection of dissociation as a contributing factor to gaps in research for new interventions, such as ketamine.
- Discuss the possibilities of using ketamine as an adjunct to therapy in patients with dissociative disorders.
