Course Description
This program includes two courses: Introduction to Ketamine for Mental Health and Introduction to Ketamine-assisted Therapy. These courses feature Fluence Trainers Dr. Ingmar Gorman, Dr. Elizabeth Nielson, Jeffrey Guss, MD, and Casey Paleos, MD. Between them, these researchers and clinicians have extensive experience in clinical trials of psychedelic-assisted therapy and private practice KAP, clinical work in preparation and integration of ketamine experiences, and training clinicians in psychedelic therapy–both for research trials and private practice settings.
- Introduction to Ketamine for Mental Health covers mechanisms of action, emerging indications, treatment models, subjective effects, and risks and precautions.
- Introduction to Ketamine-assisted Therapy covers the theoretical background, orientation, and practical knowledge for conducting ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, and includes four demonstration session recordings.
Both courses include knowledge check questions, and a continuing education certificate, and can be completed at your convenience entirely online.
Together, these courses offer a total of 5 hours of APA CE and NYSED CE for Psychologists, Social Workers, and LMHCs.
