“I feel guilty spending this much on myself.”

We hear this more often than you might think.

Especially from people who are used to
taking care of everyone else first.

But when your mental health is suffering, it shows up everywhere—
your energy, your relationships, your ability to enjoy your life.

Investing in your mental health isn’t indulgent.
It’s foundational.

And for many people, finally feeling like themselves again
is worth far more than they expected.

We accept most major insurance, Medicare and Medicaid. We also offer options like CareCredit and can walk through what treatment typically looks like financially

Myth: Ketamine treatment is a “last resort.”
Fact: It’s an evidence-based option for people who haven’t found enough relief with traditional treatments.

Myth: It’s unsafe.
Fact: Ketamine has been used safely in medicine for decades when properly administered and monitored.

Myth: It changes who you are.
Fact: Many patients feel more like themselves—not less.

If you’ve had questions or hesitations, you’re not alone.
We’re always here to talk through them.

What does a ketamine visit actually feel like?

Most people are surprised by how calm and comfortable it is.

You’ll be in a quiet, private room—
with a blanket, dim lighting, and time to just rest.

During treatment, many people feel:
– Deep relaxation
– A sense of mental “space”
– Less of the constant mental noise

You’re monitored throughout, and our team is there if you need anything.

Afterward, most people leave feeling
a little lighter, a little clearer, or simply different in a good way.

Every experience is unique—but it’s often much gentler than people expect.

“Is ketamine safe?”

It’s one of the most common questions we get.

Ketamine has been used in medicine for decades—
every day in hospitals across the country.

At Pax Institute, treatments are:
– Physician-directed
– Carefully dosed
– Monitored throughout your session

Our goal is to create a setting that is both
clinically sound and deeply comfortable.

If you’ve been curious but unsure, it’s okay to ask questions.

What is treatment-resistant depression?

It doesn’t mean someone “isn’t trying hard enough.”
And it doesn’t mean nothing will work.

It typically means:
– Multiple antidepressants haven’t helped enough
– Symptoms are still interfering with daily life

There are other options.

At Pax Institute, we offer evidence-based treatments like ketamine infusions and Spravato for patients who need a different path forward.

Not all depression looks like staying in bed.

Sometimes it looks like:
– Getting everything done
– Taking care of everyone else
– Smiling when you’re supposed to

…and still feeling like something isn’t right.

That matters. And it’s treatable.

Many parents delay treatment because they’re still “functioning.”

They’re working. Caring for their families. Meeting responsibilities.

But functioning isn’t the same as thriving.

High-functioning depression can quietly drain energy, patience, and joy for years.

Seeking help isn’t a sign that you’re failing your family.
It’s a step toward steadiness — for yourself and for the people who rely on you.

If you’ve tried other medications and still feel stuck…

You are not out of options.

Pax means peace in Latin. A name we chose with intention.
Peace is what we work toward every day —
helping patients find relief when other treatments haven’t been enough.

You’ve been waiting weeks, or even months, for an antidepressant to work… only to feel no relief. Now, imagine a treatment that could reduce depressive symptoms within just 24 hours.

Research in The American Journal of Psychiatry found that a single dose of ketamine can provide rapid, significant improvement in as little as 24 hours for some.
