Ketamine Therapy

At Mental Serenity Psychiatric Services, we offer Ketamine Therapy as an advanced option for individuals who have not found relief through traditional treatments. Used in a structured, supportive setting, ketamine offers the potential to reduce symptoms and create meaningful shifts in emotional well-being.

Ketamine, originally developed as an anesthetic, has been shown to help relieve symptoms of depression, PTSD, and anxiety, especially in individuals who have not responded to conventional medications. When administered in low doses under clinical supervision, ketamine works differently from traditional antidepressants by influencing the brain’s glutamate system. This process can help rewire negative thought patterns, enhance neuroplasticity, and promote emotional flexibility and resilience.

At our West Hartford, CT office, we provide safe and structured in-person Ketamine Therapy sessions. Our care model is thoughtfully designed to prioritize safety, flexibility, and therapeutic support.

Formats of Ketamine Offered

• Sublingual (SL) ketamine
• Troches (dissolvable lozenges)
• Intramuscular (IM) injections
   

All medication sessions are supervised directly by your prescribing clinician to ensure you receive attentive, expert care throughout the experience.

Preparation and Integration Support

Virtual preparation and integration sessions help you set intentions and process your experiences before and after treatment. Our integrative approach ensures ketamine is part of a thoughtful, comprehensive care plan.
 

Collaboration with KAP Therapists

We also work with clients who have established relationships with Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) providers. If you are working with your own therapist, we provide medication prescribing and monitoring only, ensuring seamless collaboration and continuity of care.
