Low dose ketamine can help facilitate therapy by decreasing inhibition, and the fear response. It can allow the participant to engage in challenging subjects they may not otherwise be able to while in a therapy session.
Ketamine Therapy: A Therapeutic Alternative in Mental Health Care
Ketamine Therapy at Lakeview Mental Health serves as an alternative for those who haven’t found relief with conventional treatments. The process involves controlled ketamine dosing, supervised by professionals. This treatment targets the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor in the brain, which plays a crucial role in mood regulation and cognition. Interacting with the brain’s glutamate system effectively ‘resets’ the brain’s functioning, helping form new nerve cells and connections. This can significantly alter thought processes and emotional states, often leading to rapid improvement in mental health.

Our journeys include a medical health assessment, billed through your insurance provider. Followed by two preparatory sessions with our therapist to discuss set, setting, intention, the guided journey, and finding our inner healing intelligence. The ketamine journey is a 2-hour journey with a trained guide, followed by an integration session with our therapist.
