Ketamine-Assisted Therapy
Are You Battling Persistent Depression?
For those suffering from persistent depression, traditional treatments such as antidepressants and psychotherapy may not always bring the relief you seek. The experience of ongoing sadness, lack of motivation, and feelings of hopelessness can affect every aspect of life, from professional performance to personal relationships. The weight of depression often leaves individuals feeling isolated and misunderstood, further deepening the emotional distress.
Do Anxiety and PTSD Interfere With Your Daily Life?
Chronic anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can consume your thoughts and disrupt your daily routines. Constant worry, panic attacks, or reliving traumatic events can hinder your ability to enjoy life, work effectively, or maintain healthy relationships. These disorders can feel like a barrier between you and the world, preventing you from achieving your potential and finding peace.
Have Other Treatments Failed to Provide the Relief You Need?
For some, conventional mental health treatments fail to produce the desired results, despite exhaustive attempts. This lack of progress can be disheartening and frustrating, leaving you feeling trapped in a cycle of ineffective solutions. When therapy and medication fail, it's normal to feel lost and skeptical about finding a treatment that works.
We understand these struggles can be overwhelming. AugustaCBT offers a new avenue with ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, an innovative approach aiming to break through these barriers.

How does ketamine-assisted therapy work?
Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy at AugustaCBT involves the use of ketamine in conjunction with psychotherapy sessions, creating a synergistic effect that enhances therapeutic outcomes. The process begins with a thorough evaluation to determine suitability for treatment, ensuring ketamine is a safe and appropriate option for you.
Once deemed suitable, the treatment involves administering a controlled dose of ketamine in a comfortable and supportive environment. During the ketamine session, a therapist is present to guide you through the experience, helping you navigate the thoughts and emotions that arise. Ketamine can enable new perspectives and emotional insights, which are invaluable in addressing deeply rooted psychological issues.
Following each session, integration therapy sessions are conducted to process the experiences and insights gained. This step is crucial as it helps translate the experiences into actionable changes in daily life, promoting long-term mental health improvement.
