Keta Medical Center provides medically supervised ketamine treatments for people struggling with a variety of mental health issues such as depression, anxiety and PTSD.
We fully respect how psychotherapy plays an integral role in a patient’s mental health journey and therefore always encourage existing outside therapists to continue working with their clients while they are receiving treatment. We want our mental health referral partners to feel confident and informed about our process and how ketamine works.
The medicine loosens ego defenses and allows people to more easily address sensitive issues without getting overwhelmed. There is no such thing as a ‘bad trip’, if difficult material emerges during a ketamine journey, it is simply highlighting specific areas that may benefit from deeper exploration in talk therapy sessions.
Patients often achieve greater self awareness, the flexibility to reframe old narratives, and the clarity to release negative thought patterns. These insights, along with a renewed sense of confidence, allow for a healthier mindset to take root. Ultimately, these breakthroughs can significantly strengthen the therapeutic relationship and lead to lasting positive change.

We are committed to the best outcomes for clients and will always make time to coordinate care with existing mental health providers.
If you have questions, want to reach out or want to recommend a patient, please give us a call or contact me.

How Does Ketamine Work?
Ketamine (whether IV infusions or Spravato nasal spray) is a dissociative anesthetic that induces a dream-like state and offers rapid relief. It works by promoting neuroplasticity in the brain, helping to create new neural pathways which often has a profound effect on the therapeutic relationship, enhancing the work between patient and therapist.The medicine loosens ego defenses and allows people to more easily address sensitive issues without getting overwhelmed.
