Anxiety/PTSD

Stress is a part of life, but if feelings of anxiety or PTSD become irrational, overwhelming, or excessive, it’s time to get professional help, before your debilitating symptoms interfere with your normal daily routine.

Feeling anxious or fearful is a normal emotion experienced by us all and our bodies handle this by creating a “fight or flight” response to deal with the situation. However, anxiety disorder and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) are when these feelings of anxiety or fear become excessive, irrational, and overwhelming. If left untreated, the sufferer may find that they are no longer able to go about their normal daily life, which can have a devastating effect on the person’s physical, emotional, and mental health.

Most patients will typically go through several rounds of various antidepressants and/or benzodiazepines if they do not respond favorably to the antidepressants. As it can take a number of weeks to know if medication is helping in any way, it can create further anxiety in a patient, hence compounding the very problem that they are looking to resolve.

Treating anxiety and PTSD can be difficult using prescribed medications or other therapies, as every patient’s circumstances and lifestyle are unique to them, and a “one size fits all” approach has been shown to fail in 30-40% of cases in the U.S.

At the Klarity Clinic, we take a holistic approach to help you return to your life with your symptoms greatly reduced or even alleviated altogether. You will be strongly supported by proven medical research and the capabilities of our very experienced team. By treating the brain’s functioning processes as well as assessing your body’s general health and mental resilience, we can work together to help you on your journey to recovery.

 

Why should I come to the Klarity Clinic for treating my anxiety or PTSD?

  • We specialize in treating patients using Ketamine Infusion Therapy. This innovative process is already being recognized as a possible therapy with excellent outcomes for those patients that have already tried treatments and therapies with little or no success, but want to get their mental health back to normal.

  • Scientists are still learning how this treatment really works in the brain - it is generally believed that ketamine re-builds the missing connections that allows the brain to pass messages between cells and, in effect, bypass the negative effects felt from previous traumatic memories and experiences.

 

What happens in Ketamine Infusion Therapy?

If you are ready to start on your recovery from anxiety or PTSD, we would like to invite you to book in for a consultation to check your suitability for this treatment. This is normally done over the phone so that we can make a thorough assessment of your symptoms and give you the immediate opportunity to find out more and ask any questions you may have.

If you choose to go ahead with Ketamine Infusion Therapy, we normally recommend a treatment course of six intravenous infusions of ketamine, over a period of two weeks.

Patients have reported that they have felt a significant improvement in their symptoms in as little as 24 hours after their first treatment and further significant improvements with each treatment dose over the two-week treatment time.

At the end of the initial treatment course, we will continue to follow up with you over the phone/text to assess the results of your treatments and develop a maintenance plan customized for you.

We are here to make sure you feel supported every step of the way.
