Why You Should Actually Travel North This Winter
Every winter, the same thing happens.
Flights fill up to Florida.
Instagram floods with palm trees.
Everyone starts chasing sun, heat, and escape.
Go south.
Get warm.
Forget your life for a few days.
But what if relief isn’t the same thing as change?
What if the real reset doesn’t happen on a beach—but somewhere colder and quieter?
Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)/EMDR Weekend Intensives
A KAP/EMDR weekend intensive is a carefully structured, deeply supported therapeutic experience designed to help you move through a plateau—not just understand it. Over the course of a long weekend, we combine ketamine-assisted psychotherapy with EMDR trauma processing to allow real change to occur.
Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy isn’t about “fixing” you or bypassing pain. It works by temporarily softening rigid neural patterns—especially those shaped by trauma—so your system can experience something new: safety, perspective, and flexibility.
When KAP is offered in an intensive format over a weekend, something powerful happens:
Momentum builds instead of dissipating
Insights deepen instead of staying surface-level
Integration happens in real time and weeks later
Your nervous system stays in a regulated container long enough to actually reorganize
Clients often tell me that weekend intensives allow them to go further than months (or years) of weekly sessions—not because they’re trying harder, but because the conditions finally support real change.
Who KAP/EMDR Intensives are for
These intensives are especially supportive if you:
Feel emotionally “stuck” or flat despite therapy
Have unresolved trauma that hasn’t shifted with talk therapy alone
Experience persistent anxiety, depression, or nervous system dysregulation
Are high-functioning but internally exhausted
Want depth without committing to a long retreat
Weekend Intensives are not about escape or spiritual bypassing. They are grounded, relational, and clinically informed—designed to help your system do the work it’s been trying to do for a long time.
You don’t need to be at rock bottom
Many people assume ketamine therapy is only for crisis. In reality, some of the most meaningful work happens when someone is “mostly okay” but knows something isn’t fully resolved.
If you’re tired of managing symptoms and ready to actually change your relationship to them, this work can be transformative.
Go north on purpose.
Coming north in the winter is countercultural.
It’s choosing depth over distraction.
Repair over escape.
Integration over temporary relief.
And when you return home, you don’t just feel rested.
You feel different.
