Still Stuck? Break Free From Treatment-Resistant Addiction

When nothing lifts the weight. When traditional rehab, therapy, and medication haven’t worked. When you’ve done the work—and still feel stuck.

Physician-supervised ketamine therapy at One Mind offers a different path forward. We work with your brain’s natural healing processes to interrupt destructive patterns and create lasting change.

How Ketamine Transforms Addiction Recovery

Addiction rewires your brain’s reward pathways. Traditional treatments often address symptoms without targeting these deep neurological changes.

Ketamine works differently. It temporarily blocks NMDA receptors—the same receptors disrupted by chronic alcohol and drug use. This creates a unique window of neuroplasticity where your brain can form new, healthier connections.

The Result: Reduced cravings, interrupted compulsive patterns, and enhanced capacity for change.

Unlike substitution therapies or craving-blocking medications, ketamine helps restore balance to your brain’s glutamate system—the foundation for learning, memory, and decision-making.

The One Mind Difference?

Physician-Led Excellence

Every session is supervised by our Co-Medical Directors, Dr. Matt Graca and Dr. Jacob Topfer—both board-certified anesthesiologists with advanced fellowship training in pain management and extensive experience in addiction medicine.

IV Precision, Not Shortcuts

We use only intravenous ketamine administration for precise dosing and optimal safety monitoring. No at-home treatments. No lozenges. No unpredictable absorption.

Private, Discreet Environment

Serene treatment rooms designed for healing, not hurry. Your privacy and comfort are paramount—we understand the stigma around addiction treatment.

Integrated, Never Competitive

We enhance your existing care team rather than replacing it. Seamless coordination with your addiction counselors, psychiatrists, and support systems.

Clinical Evidence
and Outcomes

Ketamine-assisted addiction treatment is supported by growing clinical research:

Alcohol Use Disorder:

Studies demonstrate 66% abstinence rates at one year with ketamine treatment versus 24% with standard care alone, with benefits lasting up to two years.

Cocaine Use Disorder:

Research shows ketamine reduced continued cocaine use to 55.5% compared to 92.9% in control groups—representing a 67% reduction in use patterns.

Opioid Use Disorder:

Clinical trials indicate improved abstinence rates, with multiple ketamine sessions showing superior outcomes compared to single treatments.

Enhanced Neuroplasticity:

Ketamine's unique mechanism creates windows of increased brain adaptability, allowing patients to form new neural pathways and break compulsive behaviors more effectively than traditional approaches alone.
