Promoting Mental Wellness

Depression, also known as major depression, major depressive disorder, or clinical depression, is a common but serious mood disorder. It causes severe symptoms that affect how a person feels, thinks, and handles daily activities, such as sleeping, eating, or working. To be diagnosed with depression, the symptoms must be present for at least 2 weeks.

Supporting Personal Growth

People with bipolar disorder (formerly called manic depression or manic-depressive illness) also experience depressive episodes, during which they feel sad, indifferent, or hopeless, combined with a very low activity level. But a person with bipolar disorder also experiences manic (or less severe hypomanic) episodes, or unusually elevated moods, in which they might feel very happy, irritable, or “up,” with a marked increase in activity level.

Empowering Individuals

There are different types of depression, some of which develop due to specific circumstances:

  • Major depression includes symptoms of depressed mood or loss of interest, most of the time for at least 2 weeks, that interfere with daily activities.
  • Persistent depressive disorder (also called dysthymia or dysthymic disorder) consists of less severe symptoms of depression that last much longer, usually for at least 2 years.
  • Perinatal depression is depression that occurs during or after pregnancy. Depression that begins during pregnancy is prenatal depression, and depression that begins after the baby is born is postpartum depression
  • Seasonal affective disorder is depression that comes and goes with the seasons, with symptoms typically starting in the late fall and early winter and going away during the spring and summer.
  • Depression with symptoms of psychosis is a severe form of depression in which a person experiences psychosis symptoms, such as delusions (disturbing, false fixed beliefs) or hallucinations (hearing or seeing things others do not hear or see).

IV Ketamine therapy involves administering low doses of ketamine in a controlled medical environment. This approach helps patients manage depressive symptoms and other mental health challenges under the care of our trained providers.

This therapy is designed for individuals with conditions such as Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD), Bipolar Depression, PTSD, or suicidal thoughts. Our team conducts a thorough assessment to ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate for your needs.

Yes, safety is our top priority. We follow strict protocols and guidelines, and our therapists are highly trained to provide a secure and supportive therapeutic experience.

The therapeutic potential of ketamine is well-established, and we remain hopeful that the FDA will expand its recognition of ketamine-based treatments in the near future. Currently, the FDA has approved Spravato (Esketamine nasal spray) for depression, a significant step forward in ketamine-based therapies.

Costs vary depending on the treatment plan. We accept insurance for certain treatments:
  • Cigna, Aetna, and United Healthcare: Spravato, TMS, and medication management.
  • Enthea: Ketamine-Assisted Therapy (KAT). For IV Ketamine/KAP, coverage eligibility is determined through the intake process. Call us at 917-451-7018 for more details.

Treatment typically involves several sessions spaced over time to allow for integration and support. The exact duration depends on individual needs and goals, which are assessed during the intake process.

Eligibility depends on your medical history, assessed during the screening process. Factors like recent brain injuries, ketamine allergies, psychosis, or certain medications (e.g., benzodiazepines, opioids) may be contraindications. Conditions like uncontrolled hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, or substance use are evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

IV Ketamine therapy is typically available for individuals aged 18 and older.

After treatment, take it easy for the rest of the day—avoid work, exercise, and stressful activities. Reflecting on your experience in a journal can be helpful, and steer clear of violent or intense media to maintain a calm mindset.

Spravato is a nasal spray form of Esketamine, administered under medical supervision. It works by targeting specific receptors in the brain to alleviate symptoms of depression. Sessions are conducted in a safe and supportive setting.

Treatment duration varies but typically involves multiple sessions over weeks or months. Your provider will develop a personalized plan tailored to your needs.

Side effects vary by individual but may include dizziness, nausea, or sedation. These effects are temporary and typically resolve within hours after the session.

Spravato is FDA-approved for individuals aged 18 and older.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic fields to stimulate areas of the brain associated with mood regulation. This therapy is effective for depression and other conditions when other treatments haven’t worked.

A typical TMS treatment course involves daily sessions over 4-6 weeks, with each session lasting about 20-40 minutes. Treatment plans are tailored to your specific needs.

TMS therapy is generally well-tolerated. Possible side effects include mild scalp discomfort or headache during or after the session, which typically resolves quickly.

TMS therapy is generally available for individuals aged 18 and older, with eligibility assessed during the intake process.
