We specialize in helping clients who have or plan to use psychedelics, ketamine, or cannabis for healing purposes. Psychedelics are proving helpful for a number of conditions, including addictions, depression, anxiety disorders, and trauma. We work with a range of clients. Some have utilized psychedelics for personal or spiritual growth in the U.S. or abroad. Others are attempting to address issues that have not responded to other treatments. Ketamine and psychedelics are not the right intervention for everyone. We can help you figure out if this is the right approach for you and we take a harm reduction approach to reduce risks and maximize the benefits. Our approach is guided by our client's goals and relies on our innate tendency toward healing and growth. In contrast to ketamine infusion clinics, which tend to take a biomedical approach, our process is anchored in the therapeutic relationship. We are with our clients for every step, from preparation and learning to navigate psychedelic experience, being present during ketamine sessions, to integration of the experience afterward.

Anxiety Treatment Centers
What are the most common treatments for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioral therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other popular forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.
How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.
When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.
How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
