Depression

Depression affects 16 million adults in the U.S. each year, with up to 45% being treatment resistant.

What is Depression?

Depression is categorized as a mood disorder that affects brain function. It can have emotional, psychological, and physical consequences. Depression can cause severe obstacles, and disruptions in daily life. It often involves altered moods that persist for weeks, months or even years. Depression is often treatment resistant, with between 29% and 46% of patients failing to respond to antidepressant medicines. The persistence of this condition considering the advances of modern medicine indicates a strong need for new approaches to treatment and healing.

Treatment Options

Ketamine Therapy for Depression

Ketamine Infusion Therapy can provide rapid relief from depressive symptoms for a significant number of patients. In controlled, specific amounts, ketamine stimulates the creation and remodeling of neurons that have atrophied in depression. Approximately 70% of patients may experience a significant reduction in symptoms – many during their first infusion, which creates an excellent opportunity for rapid healing of emotional trauma with a therapist post infusion.

MDMA Therapy (Available 2024)

3,4-methylenedioxy-methamphetamine (MDMA) therapy is an upcoming, highly effective and innovative treatment approach for those suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other mental health conditions. It combines the psychoactive compound MDMA with guided psychological support, and has shown as much as a 75% success rate in patients suffering from PTSD, setting an unprecedented standard for treatment. MDMA therapy is not currently available, but expected to gain FDA approval later this year.
