Light in the Mountains Retreat

A private, small-group Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy experience designed to help you release what’s weighing you down and move forward with clarity, direction, and purpose.

 
  • Reset your mind and nervous system in a single weekend

  • Break patterns that have been running your life for years

  • Get clear on what’s actually next in your life

  • Experience deep emotional and spiritual release in a safe, guided environment

  • 12 attendees total ensure an intimate experience for all

 

You Already Know Something Isn’t Working.

You don’t need more information. Not another podcast. Not another book. Not another “insight” that changes nothing. Because if that worked– you wouldn’t still feel like this.

You might have:

• Built a life that looks good on paper

• Achieved things most people haven’t

• Done therapy, self-work, or spiritual exploration

And still...

You feel stuck, mentally exhausted, disconnected from yourself, unsure what direction to take, or worse - you feel like you’re slowly drifting.

Not falling apart.

You're just not fully alive.

 
 

This Is Where Everything Changes

 

Light in the Mountains is not a retreat you attend. It’s an experience that interrupts your trajectory. A carefully structured, small-group immersion where you:

• step out of your environment

• remove distraction

• access deeper awareness

• face what's currently running your life

At the center of the experience is Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy - a clinically supported process that helps:

  • quiet the mental noise

• loosen rigid patterns

• process emotions deeply

• create space for clarity

  • All inside a safe, guided environment

 
 

What You Walk Away With

This isn’t about feeling good for a weekend. This is about leaving different.

After this experience, what do people typically walk away with?

  • Real clarity (not just ideas)

  • Relief from constant overthinking

  • A deeper connection to themselves; physically and emotionally

  • A clear direction forward

  • The ability to stop repeating the same cycles








How It Works:

Before: Phone and online meetings prior to retreat to get clear on intention and gain familiarity with other therapists and group participants.

Friday: Arrival. Grounding. Intention.

Saturday: Guided Ketamine-Assisted experience + integration.

Sunday Morning: Clarity. Direction. Next steps.

After: Follow-up integration + continued support.
