Ketamine Therapy for PTSD in Fort Lauderdale
When Trauma Keeps You Stuck, Ketamine Can Help You Move Forward
Trauma isn't just in your mind. It's stored in your body—and it can keep you on high alert, disconnected, or emotionally numb. Ketamine offers a research-backed path to reset your nervous system and feel safe again.
1 in 13 Americans will develop PTSD in their lifetime. Most never find lasting relief with therapy or medications alone.
(National Center for PTSD, 2023)
We’re here to change that—starting in Fort Lauderdale.
What PTSD Really Feels Like
PTSD isn’t just flashbacks. It’s waking up in a panic. It’s being numb at dinner with your family. It’s jumping at sounds that no one else hears. It’s not being able to trust your body, your memory, or your safety.
Some people relive a single event. Others carry the weight of ongoing trauma. It can show up days, months, or years later. No matter the timeline, trauma leaves a
physiological imprint—and it can be unlearned.
PTSD Looks Different for Everyone. Do Any of These Sound Like You?
You scan rooms or crowds for exits, threats, or tension
You avoid places, people, or memories—even ones that used to feel safe
You feel disconnected from your own emotions or body
You struggle to sleep—or dread the thoughts that come with being still
You don’t recognize who you were before the trauma
You feel emotionally numb or overreactive with no middle ground
You don’t need a combat history or diagnosis to be suffering from PTSD. If your nervous system is stuck in overdrive, it deserves care.

What If Your Brain Could Stop Reliving What It’s Trying to Survive?
How Ketamine Helps
PTSD disrupts how your brain processes fear and safety. Ketamine doesn’t just mask symptoms—it helps your brain relearn calm.
It targets the brain’s glutamate system to calm overactive fear responses and promote neuroplasticity—the ability to form new, more adaptive connections.
• Disrupts trauma loops: Decreases activity in the amygdala and fear networks
• Supports reconnection:
Helps patients feel safer in their own body again
• Improves therapy outcomes: Often deepens effectiveness of trauma-focused therapy
• Noticeable change in 1–3 sessions:
Many report feeling lighter, calmer, or more emotionally clear
In a 2021 randomized controlled trial, ketamine significantly reduced PTSD symptoms in
first responders and veterans who had not responded to other treatments (Feder et al.,AJP).
