Ketamine is not a reset button. It is a neuroplastic window. When administered under careful psychiatric supervision as part of a comprehensive treatment architecture, ketamine assisted psychotherapy can facilitate emotional processing and neural reorganization that years of standard treatment could not produce. At The Dr. Williams Clinic in Austin, Texas, ketamine therapy is never offered in isolation. It is integrated into a broader evaluation and treatment plan. That distinction matters.
If standard treatment has not produced the depth of change you need, you may request evaluation

The ketamine therapy landscape has expanded rapidly. Clinics offering ketamine infusions without psychiatric evaluation have proliferated. The model is often: arrive, receive an infusion, leave. No psychiatric assessment. No integration. No understanding of what the ketamine is being asked to do within the patient’s specific clinical picture.
That model treats ketamine as a product. I treat it as a clinical tool within a psychiatric framework.
In my practice, ketamine assisted psychotherapy begins with comprehensive psychiatric evaluation. The clinical picture must justify the intervention. The patient’s biological variables, medication interactions, trauma history, and treatment goals must be assessed before ketamine is considered. This is not gatekeeping. This is clinical precision.
I recommend ketamine assisted psychotherapy for patients with treatment resistant depression, anxiety, or PTSD who have undergone adequate trials of standard treatment without sufficient response. Patients whose clinical picture suggests that neuroplastic facilitation could accelerate therapeutic progress. Patients who are prepared for the depth of work that integration requires.
This is not for patients seeking a quick experience or a shortcut around the work of treatment. Ketamine creates a window. The patient must be willing to do the work that window makes possible.
If you have been partially treated for years and suspect that standard approaches have reached their ceiling. If you are drawn to this kind of intervention and are prepared for the depth it requires. You may request evaluation. I maintain a small patient roster. Not all inquiries can be accommodated. That is by design.
