What is The Mom Parts Method?
The Mom Parts Method is a 5 step IFS-informed process developed by Jessica Tomich Sorci:
Finding Your Mom Parts
Through inward focusing, notice which Mom Parts are present and needing care and attention.
Naming Your Mom Parts
Give your parts a descriptive name and get curious about their role in your system.
Uncovering Truths
Validate and witness what your parts have been carrying.
Moving Closer to the Inescapable Vulnerabilities
Touch into the grief or shame underneath your protective parts.
Identifying the Remedies
Access your Inner Mom's resources and offer your parts what they're needing most.
For Moms
All your Mom Parts are welcome here.
Motherhood can activate perfectionism, guilt, resentment, fear, grief, shame, and parts of ourselves we may barely recognize.
Mom Parts KAP creates spaces to meet those experiences with curiosity rather than treating them as something that needs to be fixed.
For Clinicians + Practitioners
Mom Parts KAP professional education helps clinicians and practitioners recognize and support with the parts that emerge around motherhood without pathologizing them. Our framework is applicable across KAP preparation, dosing sessions, and integration.
And because you have parts too, our learning spaces are designed to be restorative and experiential.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Mom Parts KAP?
Mom Parts KAP is an IFS-informed, nonpathologizing approach to Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) that brings the Mom Parts Method into preparation, medicine sessions, and integration.
Rather than treating the different parts that show up in motherhood as problems to fix, Mom Parts KAP approaches them as adaptive, meaningful, and worthy of curiosity.
The approach grew from a collaboration between Jessica Tomich Sorci, creator of the Mom Parts Method and author of When Good Moms Feel Bad, and Meredith Futernick-Gerak, KAP practitioner and Clinician Educator. Their complementary perspectives came together to explore how the Mom Parts Method can support psychedelic-assisted care.

What is a Mom Parts KAP Lab?
Each month we explore a new Mom Parts theme through clinical teaching, guided reflection, community, and psycholytic (low-dose) KAP—from preparation through dosing and integration.
KAP Labs include guided Mom Parts exploration, inward reflection, restorative rest, optional music or eyeshades, relational support, and personal meaning-making. The topic and structure is always shared before registration.
What makes this a unique experience for moms?
Motherhood can activate old wounds, impossible expectations, competing needs, and polarized experiences of guilt, anger, grief, shame, euphoria, love, and ambivalence. Mom Parts KAP is designed specifically around these realities.
Rather than treating difficult experiences as problems to eliminate, we approach them as meaningful parts that have been working hard to protect you.
Mom Parts KAP experiences aim to create space for personal processing, genuine care, restorative learning, and connection so you do not have to divide your already limited time among self-care, inner work, and professional growth.
What do you mean by "restorative learning"?
Our offerings weave together education, CE credit for clinicians when applicable, Mom Parts exploration, experiential practice, connection, rest, and integration. The intention is to create one supportive space where you can deepen your understanding while also tending to your own nervous system and the parts of you that need care.
We want you to leave with more than information: feeling more resourced, more connected to yourself, and with increased confidence about the support that moms actually need.
What does "low-dose" or "psycholytic" KAP mean?
Psycholytic KAP uses a lower dose of ketamine intended to support emotional, relational, and brain-body exploration while allowing participants to remain connected to the therapeutic process.
Within Mom Parts KAP, this approach may support unblending (creating some space from a part's reactions) and befriending (approaching that part with curiosity).
Compared with a more immersive psychedelic experience, a psycholytic approach may also involve a shorter recovery period. However, responses to ketamine vary, and a lower dose does not guarantee a particular experience or recovery time.
Do Jessica or Meredith prescribe ketamine?
No. Prescribing and medical eligibility are handled separately by appropriately licensed medical providers.
Please let us know if you need assistance connecting with a prescriber.
Is ketamine required?
No. All Mom Parts + KAP offerings include the option of medicine-free participation.
