Our advanced therapeutic treatments with ketamine and Spravato

SAFE
EFFECTIVE
RAPID
Spravato (Esketamine)
An in-network antidepressant treatment for adults with treatment-resistant depression. Intranasal esketamine has shown significant improvements when other treatments haven't worked. Offering similar benefits to ketamine infusion therapy, Spravato is FDA-approved, accepted by most insurances, generally well-tolerated, and convenient due to its nasal spray form.
Ketamine Therapy
An evidence-based treatment for depression and other mental health conditions like anxiety, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, and suicidal thoughts. By targeting neurotransmitters in the brain, the effects of ketamine depression therapy address the complex relationship between ketamine and depression and offers rapid relief when traditional treatments haven't helped.

Each treatment session takes place in a private suite designed for focus and calm. You're monitored throughout by clinical staff, with everything you need to stay comfortable during the session — blankets, eye masks, and refreshments. The environment is intentional: structured to support treatment, relaxed to let the treatment work.
