The Benefits of Ketamine with Sharon Niv, PhD
from The Trauma Therapist · host Guy Crawford Macpherson
Sharon is the co-founder of Joyous PBC, an AI-powered platform focused on making mental health treatment affordable and accessible. A cognitive psychologist, she has led the development of patient programs and created Joyous for Therapists, a collaboration tool designed to support clinicians. Her work centers on the psycholytic ketamine approach for trauma treatment — a low-risk method with negligible psychiatric or medical emergency rates. Because low-dose ketamine produces partial dissociation, clients stay oriented while gaining enough psychological distance to work directly with trauma targets. It requires far less training than psychedelic therapy and has shown strong effectiveness for trauma care.In This EpisodeJoyous PBCSharon on IGsharonniv.substack.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-trauma-therapist--5739761/support.---Thank you for listening!If you want to support the show, I've got three options and every bit helps.$5.00 PayPalhttps://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/NPKS32G8KVSN2$10.00 PayPalhttps://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/495AMDFXQFC3L$15.00 PayPalhttps://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/M7V5RREUKVD8JThank you to our Sponsors: Jane App - use code GUY1MO at https://janesoftware.partnerlinks.io/ngvcwcxqt2jx-4afv8i (https://jane.app/book_a_demo)Rebound - https://hellorebound.com/ttBeducated - Complete the quiz for one month free https://beduc.at/pd2629-traumatherapist
