Ketamine Therapy | KAP for Depression & Trauma

There may be something in you that is asking for more space than ordinary conversation can reach. Maybe you have had insight, therapy, creative practice, or spiritual exploration, and still feel caught in grief, numbness, protection, or old patterns. Or maybe ketamine therapy has opened something meaningful, but you need support integrating what came forward so it does not stay abstract or overwhelming. 

I’m Danielle Wiggins, a somatic psychotherapist and the founder of Space Takes Practice. I created this practice for people who want to meet their inner world with depth, care, and embodiment. Through somatic psychotherapy, trauma-informed support, and embodied practice, I offer ketamine therapy integration that helps you stay connected to your body, emotions, and inner knowing before and after expanded states. Breakthroughs matter. I don't believe in chasing them. What matters is having enough space to live with what emerges during dosing sessions and expanded states. Together, we help what you discover become something you can actually live with, feel, and trust. On this page, you’ll explore what ketamine therapy is, whether it may be right for you, how you can begin, and a little more about me and the way I work.

Feeling stuck despite insight:  You may understand your patterns, history, or protective strategies, yet still feel like something isn't shifting. It can feel as though part of you knows what happened, while another part continues living it.

Feeling disconnected from yourself:  You may move through daily life feeling numb, distant, shut down, or unable to access emotion. Even when you want to feel more connected, it can be difficult to reach what feels alive beneath the surface.

Longing for something beyond talking: You may have done meaningful therapy and gained important insight, but find yourself wondering if there is another way of accessing what words alone haven't been able to reach.

Feeling caught in familiar patterns: You may notice yourself returning to the same relational dynamics, fears, or protective responses, even when you deeply want something different. This can leave you feeling discouraged or disconnected from your own capacity for change.

Wanting a deeper relationship with yourself: You may feel drawn toward greater clarity, compassion, creativity, or connection, but find it difficult to access those parts of yourself through everyday consciousness alone.

• Do I feel drawn to ketamine therapy because something feels difficult to reach through talk alone? You may sense there are emotions, memories, images, or patterns beneath the surface that need a different kind of access and support.
• Have I had powerful insights but struggled to integrate them afterward? Integration may be needed when something meaningful opens, but you are unsure how to bring it into your body, relationships, choices, or daily rhythms.
• Do I feel pressure for a breakthrough because I am tired of feeling stuck? This longing makes sense, but it can also create urgency around healing that needs care, pacing, and grounding.• Do expanded or emotional experiences leave me feeling raw, unsteady, or alone afterward? This may indicate that your system needs relational support to help metabolize what emerged instead of carrying it by yourself.
• Do I want support staying connected to my body before and after ketamine therapy? Somatic integration can help the experience become less abstract and more connected to how you live, feel, and relate.

Many of the people who find their way to my practice feel called toward ketamine therapy, but don't want the dosing experience to exist in isolation. They're looking for support across the entire arc: thoughtful preparation, meaningful integration, and a grounded therapeutic relationship before, during, and after ketamine therapy.

This work may be a strong fit if you want to approach expanded states with care rather than urgency. Together, we help what emerges become less abstract and more embodied, so it can inform how you live, create, relate, and listen inward.

If you are preparing for ketamine therapy, our first sessions may focus on intention, support, expectations, fears, and what helps your body feel grounded. If you are integrating after a ketamine experience, we may begin with what you remember, what felt meaningful, what felt confusing, and what still feels alive in your body. I do not prescribe or administer ketamine.  My role is to support preparation and integration through a somatic, trauma-informed lens.

Sessions may include reflective dialogue, body awareness, nervous system tracking, imagery work, journaling prompts, creative processing, movement, grounding, and meaning-making. We may explore images, sensations, memories, emotions, spiritual material, or relational themes that surfaced during the experience. We may also talk about how to care for yourself in the days after a session, when your system may feel more open, sensitive, or in need of rhythm.

Some clients come weekly around a ketamine series, while others schedule sessions before and after specific experiences. Progress often looks like being able to translate insight into small embodied choices: a boundary, a conversation, a different pace, a new relationship to grief, or a clearer sense of what your body is asking for. Integration helps the experience become less separate from ordinary life and more connected to how you live, create, relate, and listen inward.
