Features
Key Features of Ketamine Therapy (KT)
Clinically guided support designed for long-term recovery.
Preparation phase
A trusted Guide helps you reach the right mindset before each session — setting intentions, grounding techniques, breathwork, or meditation.
Method of administration
A precise dose of ketamine is given intramuscularly into the shoulder. IV infusions and nasal spray (Spravato) are also available.
Your Guide helps you process the emotions and insights that surface — through journaling, art therapy, or other integration and wellness offerings.
Follow-up care and additional sessions
Kadelyx offers bonus sessions based on your ongoing needs and therapeutic goals. See full treatment pricing.
Trauma changes the brain. Ketamine therapy can help change it back.
Interrupts the trauma response
Ketamine blocks NMDA receptors and shifts glutamate signaling, helping disrupt the cycle of flashbacks, hypervigilance, and anxiety that can follow years of emergency calls.
Restores mood and motivation
By increasing activity in the prefrontal cortex, ketamine can help lift the depression and emotional numbness that build up after prolonged exposure to human suffering.
Builds lasting resilience
Increased neuroplasticity helps first responders build healthier coping patterns and get more out of ongoing therapy.
You're in Caring Hands
Professional, confidential care from a team that understands the importance of trust, safety, and personal dignity.
