Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic and an FDA Schedule III medication. Research has shown that ketamine can be highly effective for depression, even in individuals who have not responded to other treatments. Its effects can be rapid, with some individuals noticing improvements within hours. Ketamine may also:

• • Reduce anxiety
  • Improve sleep, appetite, and energy patterns
  • Benefit PTSD and other anxiety-related conditions
  • Help with obsessive thinking or rumination

Ketamine works on the brain’s glutamate system, helping it form new connections and break rigid thought patterns. This can lead to rapid improvements in mood, anxiety, sleep, and energy.

Yes. A documented mental health diagnosis is required, and records from your current or previous providers will be requested. Ketamine is not provided for recreational purposes.

Unlike most antidepressants, ketamine can work rapidly, sometimes within hours, and can help individuals who haven’t responded to other treatments.

This approach is ideal for individuals seeking:

• • Relief from treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, or trauma
  • Greater clarity and self-understanding
  • Tools to overcome patterns that have held them back
  • Accelerated progress toward personal growth and life goals

Each session typically lasts 60–90 minutes for the effects of the medication, but patients are required to remain on-site for at least 2 hours for monitoring and post-session observation to ensure safety.

Integration therapy helps you process insights from your ketamine session and apply them to daily life. It is a key part of achieving lasting benefits.

Ketamine is generally safe when administered under medical supervision. Serious side effects are rare, and patients are carefully screened for medical and psychiatric stability.

Ketamine may not be appropriate for individuals with certain heart, liver, or psychiatric conditions. Your provider will review your history to ensure safety.

While not required, it is strongly recommended to have a responsible adult available for support following your session. For safety, patients are not permitted to drive to or from treatment.
