A Restorative Reset for Therapists and Helping Professionals…
You are so good at taking care of others. Are you ready to invest in your own well-being?
If you’re a therapist or helping professional, you already know how essential rest and restoration are…but making space for yourself can feel nearly impossible.
Maybe you’re:
Feeling stuck and yearning for something more in your wellness journey
Burned out and craving a chance to reset
Longing to reconnect with yourself in a meaningful, intentional way
Curious about exploring a gentle, supportive ketamine therapy experience
Searching for a fresh perspective, emotional spaciousness, or renewed clarity
Wanting to feel more grounded, centered, or even a little more you
Looking for community with others who understand the invisible weight you carry
If any of this resonates, this Ketamine-Assisted Therapy Virtual Retreat is a warm, restorative space to reorient, reconnect, and come home to yourself.
This retreat isn’t about fixing or “curing” anything.
It’s about creating a gentle pause; a supported place to breathe deeply, rest your nervous system, reflect on what’s rising within you, and rediscover the inner wisdom that can get buried under the daily work of caring for others.
A small group of helping professionals will gather for intention-setting, two carefully supported ketamine sessions, and meaningful integration, offering you a reset, a softening, and a renewed sense of groundedness.
***Space is limited to 3-4 participaants.

What Does Ketamine Feel Like
The effects of ketamine last about 45 minutes and are usually described as pleasant and expansive. You may feel “far from” your body, which can create space from habitual thoughts and offer new perspectives. During this time, your ability to move or speak will be reduced, so you’ll rest in a comfortable position. After the effects wear off, we’ll spend time processing and discussing your experience. Though hard to put into words, many clients find the insights gained are clear and meaningful. Benefits to mood and brain growth can last up to two weeks.
Meet the Facilitator
Amanda Waldron, LMSW
As a therapist and certified ketamine-assisted psychotherapy guide, I specialize in creating safe, supportive spaces for personal growth and healing. I’ve witnessed firsthand how burnout, emotional fatigue, and constant caregiving can quietly take a toll on helping professionals. My work is rooted in the belief that those who care for others deserve care themselves — and this retreat is my way of providing just that: guidance, reflection, and gentle support to help you reconnect with your inner balance.
