Making Space for What Has Been Lost, and What Remains

 

The Summer Solstice marks a threshold: a moment of light, reflection, and transition. For those carrying grief, it can offer a meaningful pause to honor what has been lost while gently reconnecting with what remains.

This special Elemental Psychedelic Immersion is a guided therapeutic experience centered on grief, emotional integration, nervous system care, and deep self-connection.

Through breathwork, live sound, somatic awareness, intention-setting, and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, participants will be supported in slowing down, regulating the nervous system, making space for grief, and reconnecting with inner steadiness.Light refreshments will be offered.

Dr. Daniel Zimmerman specializes in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) for trauma and works at the intersection of depth-oriented psychotherapy and psychedelic treatment. His approach is thoughtful, individualized, and collaborative. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all model, he works closely with each person to understand their history, patterns, and strengths.

Dr. Zimmerman believes that healing involves both insight and accountability, and he works with patients to translate powerful therapeutic experiences into real-world growth.

How the Workshop Is Structured

This immersive workshop is designed as a carefully sequenced experience—combining preparation, in-person therapeutic work, and integration to support meaningful and lasting impact.

Before the Workshop

Participants complete the following steps prior to the in-person experience:

  • Medical and psychiatric evaluation with Dr. Daniel Zimmerman (required)
  • Intake session with Dr. Amanda Sacks-Zimmerman (1 hour)
  • Optional neuropsychological testing (pre-program baseline, if applicable)
  • Preparation Zoom: Friday, April 24 at 10:00 AM (1 hour 45 minutes)

These steps ensure participants arrive grounded, informed, and fully prepared for the experience.
