Conditions We Treat

OCD.

For adults whose obsessive-compulsive symptoms have not been relieved by standard SSRIs and exposure work.

Overview

What we mean by ocd.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder is more than a preference for order. For many adults, it means hours lost to intrusive thoughts and rituals that feel impossible to interrupt, even when you know they are not rational.

Standard treatments, SSRIs and exposure and response prevention therapy, are genuinely effective for many people. For those they do not reach, alternative neurobiological approaches may be considered under careful medical guidance.

Our evaluation looks at the full clinical picture, including comorbid depression or anxiety, before recommending whether advanced treatment is a reasonable next step.

How We Treat It

2 possible pathways, matched to you.

Final recommendations are made after a complete clinical evaluation. We will explain why we are suggesting a particular pathway, in writing, before anything begins.

  1. Pathway 0101

    IV Ketamine

    An off-label option with promising preliminary evidence.

    A series of IV Ketamine sessions may help temporarily reduce the intensity of obsessive thought patterns, creating an opening for exposure work and behavioral change to take hold.

  2. Pathway 0202

    KAP

    Pair pharmacology with focused behavioral work.

    When integration matters as much as symptom reduction, KAP combines ketamine sessions with structured preparation and integration to support ongoing therapeutic work.

Honest

We will tell you what the evidence does and does not show

A Quiet Reminder

You do not have to know what pathway is right. That is our job.

A consultation is a conversation, not a commitment. We will tell you honestly whether advanced treatment is appropriate for your situation, and if it is not, we will help you think about what is.

Every treatment is delivered under medical supervision.
