Ketamine is a medication developed in the 1960s, widely used in medical practice as an FDA-approved anesthetic for surgical procedures.

It is classified as a dissociative, meaning it can induce a sense of detachment from one's environment, an "out of body" experience, and decreased sensitivity to pain.

About 20 years ago, researchers discovered that ketamine has a remarkable ability to induce rapid neuroplasticity in the brain. This means it can quickly help form new connections that previously did not exist before.

Since then, ketamine has been increasingly recognized in the psychiatric field as an innovative alternative to more traditional medications and treatments.

Ketamine is highly effective for treating symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD, and suicidal thoughts.

Preliminary evidence also supports its use in bipolar depression, OCD, and substance use disorders.

The success rate of ketamine treatment varies due to factors such as the specific condition being treated, frequency of treatments, dosage, and whether it's combined with therapy.

About 75%-80% of patients undergoing ketamine treatment for depression experience significant improvement in their symptoms.

Ketamine shows particular promise for individuals with "treatment-resistant depression" — those who haven't found success with other medications or therapies.

Expert: Your care will be provided by a board-certified psychiatrist with extensive training and experience in treating mental health conditions. This is unlike many Ketamine clinics, which are often run by non-psychiatrists or mid-level practitioners such as nurse practitioners and physician assistants.

Holistic: Unlike larger mental healthcare systems, which tend to value efficiency over comprehensive care, we take time to get to know you as a whole person. We view each patient as a unique individual in the context of their broader life circumstances, not just as a diagnosis

Personalized: Your doctor will be with you to guide and support you through the entire process, from the initial consultation to preparation therapy sessions, to ketamine sessions, to post-treatment integration therapy sessions. This is in contrast to most other Ketamine clinics, which offer only medication administration without counseling or therapy.

Seamless: We understand that dealing with the medical and mental health care systems can be complicated and frustrating. We are dedicated to providing a simple, patient-friendly experience within a welcoming and friendly environment.

Since ketamine has not yet been approved by the FDA specifically for depression or other mental health conditions, it is currently administered as an "off-label" treatment. Consequently, ketamine treatments are generally not covered by insurance, requiring patients to pay out-of-pocket.

We accept credit cards, debit cards, HSA/FSA cards, checks, and cash. We aim to make the payment process as convenient as possible for all of our patients.

Yes, we offer financing through CareCredit, which allows you to spread the cost of your treatment over time with flexible payment options. CareCredit provides a “No Interest if Paid in Full Within 6 or 12 Months” plan, as well as various Reduced APR and Fixed Monthly Payment plans. Learn more and apply here.
