Pro Bono Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy for Palliative Care

Healing Is Possible Even When Curing Is Not


Facing serious illness can bring profound grief, fear, and uncertainty. Alongside physical symptoms, many individuals find themselves wrestling with anxiety, depression, existential distress, unfinished relationships, and questions about meaning, love, and mortality.

The Sacred Journey Fund was created to provide pro bono Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) for individuals navigating serious illness and end-of-life transitions; offering compassionate emotional, psychological, and spiritual support when it is needed most.

At The Inner Path, we believe that no one should have to walk this journey alone.

At Inner Path, we believe healing is possible even when curing is not.

Why This Work Matters

Research and clinical experience suggest that ketamine-assisted psychotherapy may help relieve depression, anxiety, and existential distress while supporting deeper peace, meaning, and connection.

For many individuals, this work creates space for:

  • Greater peace and acceptance

  • Reduced anxiety and depression

  • Processing grief and unresolved trauma

  • Reconciliation and repair in important relationships

  • Meaning-making and spiritual exploration

  • Deeper connection with loved ones

  • Living more fully in the time that remains

Healing does not always mean extending life.

Sometimes healing means finding peace.

Emerging Research

& the Benefits of KAP

A study of ketamine in palliative care found evidence that ketamine may provide rapid antidepressant effects and can be a promising intervention for depressive symptoms in people facing serious illness.

Barbosa MG, Garcia GT, Sarin LM, Jackowski AP. (2023)

S-ketamine is associated with a rapid improvement in anxiety symptoms among patients receiving palliative care, suggesting ketamine may help address emotional suffering alongside physical symptoms.

Falk E, Schlieper D, van Caster P, et al. (2020)

Emerging clinical work in KAP palliative care suggests potential benefits for anxiety, depression, and existential distress—the psychological and spiritual suffering that can accompany serious illness and end-of-life transitions.

What We Provide

Through the Sacred Journey Fund, eligible individuals receive:

  • Medical evaluation and screening

  • Preparation sessions with a therapist

  • Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy sessions

  • Integration and meaning-making support

  • Collaboration with hospice and medical providers when appropriate

  • Support for caregivers, partners, and loved ones

The Need

Many people facing serious illness experience profound emotional suffering.

Unfortunately, these services are often inaccessible due to financial barriers.

No one should have to choose between receiving emotional support and paying for medical care.

Through the generosity of our community, we hope to ensure that individuals and families navigating serious illness have access to compassionate care regardless of financial circumstances.

Where healing is understood as something far greater than curing.

And where no one has to walk the sacred journey alone.
