Brain Changes After
Advanced Depression Treatments
This PET scan shows brain activity using color, where blue and purple represent low energy and yellow and red represent high energy. It illustrates how a "depressed" brain is physically less active—essentially dimmed down—while a "healthy" brain is vibrant and fully engaged. The comparison highlights that depression is a biological state, but one that can be "recharged" and restored through treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Ketamine covered by insurance?
Ketamine used for mental health treatment (injection or oral) is not FDA-approved for depression and is therefore not covered by insurance. We explain all costs transparently during your consultation.

Yes. Spravato® & TMS are covered by most insurance plans with prior authorization. Our team will help guide you through the approval process.
How quickly will I see results?
Some patients notice relief within hours, while many experience meaningful improvement within the first several sessions. However, every person’s healing journey is unique.
What are common side effects?
Temporary side effects may include mild dizziness, nausea, dissociation, or elevated heart rate. These effects typically pass quickly and are monitored by our clinical team throughout the session.
Can I combine ketamine with Spravato® or TMS?
Yes. Ketamine may be used while awaiting insurance authorization for Spravato® or TMS. Our clinicians will help determine the safest and most effective sequence or combination of treatments.
Can I drive home afterward?
TMS: Yes. Most patients can drive themselves after treatment.
Spravato® & Ketamine: No. These treatments can cause temporary drowsiness or dissociation, so a trusted support person must drive you home.
