Depression
Depression can be persistent, complex, and deeply disruptive to daily life. Many patients find their needs are not addressed by existing, available treatments for depression. Psychedelic-assisted therapy offers a novel mechanism of action, challenging the cognitive rigidity often associated with persistent depressive symptoms.
Care begins with a comprehensive evaluation to understand the full context of symptoms, history, and treatment goals. From there, our clinicians collaborate with patients to determine appropriate therapeutic options, which may include talk therapy, ketamine-assisted therapy, or clinical trial participation.
Our approach is thoughtful, individualized, and grounded in both clinical expertise and respect for each person’s experience.
Fostering Self-Compassion and Connection
Changes in self-narratives post-treatment often include a profound increase in self-compassion and a sense of connectedness to self, others, and the world. These shifts often lead to value reorientation and functional improvement that extends beyond mere symptom reduction..
Non-Linear Healing
We emphasize that healing is rarely linear and that transformative results often unfold in “little big shifts” , embracing the entire spectrum of experience. Often there is value that can be found even in disappointment or low-intensity sessions. Regardless of your experience, our clinical team will work alongside you, supporting you throughout treatment as you navigate emotional shifts and insights.
