InnerMost Mixer: Imago Relationship Therapy Meets Ketamine-Assisted Therapy
Imago Relationship Therapy Meets Ketamine-Assisted Therapy
featuring Jayne Gumpel, LCSW & Carol Kramer, LCSW
Join us for an evening exploring the intersection of Imago Relationship Therapy and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy for couples. This InnerMost Mixer brings together two leaders in the field for a fireside conversation on what happens when a decades-old relational framework meets psychedelic-assisted care.
Carol Kramer, a certified Imago Relationship Therapy trainer, will speak to her own experience as a participant—alongside her partner—in Jayne's April retreat, and what she's observed in couples working with Imago Dialogue and ketamine together. Jayne Gumpel will discuss her 10-week group model for couples, her approach to cultivating joy and the use of poetry in this work, and what dosing, preparation, and integration look like in practice. Casey Paleos, MD will facilitate the conversation.
Whether you're an Imago-trained clinician curious about psychedelic integration, a psychedelic therapist unfamiliar with Imago, or simply interested in where these two fields meet, this conversation is for you.
