We understand that living with anxiety can feel overwhelming and isolating. Here, we’re committed to seeing you, understanding you, and providing support tailored to your unique experiences.
Advances in science and technology have revolutionized anxiety treatments, offering faster and more effective solutions. While occasional anxiety is normal, those with chronic anxiety face frequent, intense episodes that can disrupt daily life. Traditional treatments can take weeks to work, but Ketamine Infusion Therapy offers rapid relief, keeping you stable while you work with your psychotherapist to build better habits and effective coping mechanisms.
Prolonged stress and traumatic experiences can lead to significant breakdowns in the brain, similar to overworking a motor until it fails. This constant strain disrupts normal brain function and accelerates deterioration. At Scenic City Neurotherapy, our treatments stimulate the brain’s ability to repair and regenerate, addressing deficits that could otherwise take years to heal within a matter of weeks.
Chronic anxiety isn’t simply relieved by a pill, a walk, or trying to distract yourself. These approaches only address symptoms rather than the underlying issue, which is impaired brain function. Our methods target the root of the problem, helping to restore normal brain activity and improve overall mental health.
For those struggling with anxiety, it can be difficult to imagine a life beyond constant worry and stress. You might feel that this is just how it is, but this is not your normal state nor how life is supposed to feel. Effective treatment can lead to significant improvements, allowing you to experience peace of mind, better emotional regulation, and increased mental clarity. You’ll find that enjoying the present moment becomes possible, enabling you to engage with life fully rather than being consumed by anxiety. Everyday activities and social interactions can become more enjoyable and fulfilling.
However, improvement extends beyond the treatment itself. It’s essential to address the underlying factors that contributed to your anxiety, such as trauma, an unhealthy environment, or inadequate coping skills. Once you start feeling better, it’s crucial to work with your counselor to tackle these components in a forward-focused and corrective way.
Learning and implementing healthy coping mechanisms and practical skills is key. Mental health practices that may have previously seemed ineffective can become powerful tools in your recovery with enhanced brain plasticity. Revisiting and integrating strategies that didn’t work in the past into your daily routine can support your ongoing mental health journey.

Yes. At Scenic City Neurotherapy, ketamine has been shown to significantly reduce anxiety symptoms across a range of conditions, including depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Since 2019, we have used ketamine effectively in patients whose anxiety hasn’t improved with traditional treatments.
In Scenic City Neurotherapy’s experience, no patient has experienced increased anxiety.
We prepare you thoroughly so you know exactly what to expect. Your consultation lasts about an hour, and every appointment includes time to talk with your provider before the infusion begins. You’re welcome to bring someone you trust, and we’ll coach them on how to support you.
During the session, you have a call button to reach our Compassionate Care Team at any time, and we can pause the infusion whenever needed. You are never alone, and you are always in control.
Something has led you to seek treatment. It could be a number of things such as trauma, an unhealthy environment, inadequate coping skills, or even genetic components out of your control. Once you are feeling better, we need to address these components in a forward-focused and corrective way.
No. The dissociative state during ketamine is not where therapeutic change happens. The real benefit comes after the infusion, when your brain enters a 24–48 hour neuroplastic window.
Therapy is most effective in the days following treatment, when your brain is more flexible and able to form healthier patterns. Our role is to help you understand how to use that window well so your counseling and daily choices create lasting change.
If you don’t currently have a therapist or counselor, we can help. Our team has educated hundreds of mental health providers on our Minimally Stimulated Ketamine Infusion Therapy (MSKIT®) protocol, so you have access to professionals who understand the process and how to support you through it.
Ketamine increases neuroplasticity, your brain’s ability to form healthier patterns, helping reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, chronic pain, PTSD, migraines, and other cognitive disorders.
Some patients notice subtle shifts within hours, while others begin to feel meaningful change gradually throughout the Stabilization Phase and beyond. There’s no standardized timeline, as individual responses naturally differ. Minimally Stimulated Ketamine Infusion Therapy (MSKIT®) opens the door for change, and your ongoing work helps guide how that change takes shape. Through neuroplasticity, MSKIT® opens a window where your brain can more easily build healthier patterns: new thoughts, behaviors, habits, and emotional responses. Actively practicing those healthier choices during this time is what makes the difference. The more you engage with these new patterns, the stronger and more sustainable they become.
Ketamine’s benefits can last weeks to several months, but duration varies from person to person. Results depend on the brain’s baseline health, how well new neural capacity is supported, and whether the patient continues healthy brain-care practices after treatment. Many patients maintain progress with periodic booster sessions as needed.
You’ll be in a private, calm environment with continuous monitoring. You will be given eye shades, a blanket if you’d like. You’ll dress comfy. Most people describe the feeling as light, floaty, or similar to nitrous oxide at the dentist. The feeling is temporary and a result of the ketamine.
Stabilization includes six infusions over three weeks. After that, booster sessions are scheduled based on your individual progress and goals.

You can't mess up Minimally Stimulated Ketamine Infusion Therapy (MSKIT®). The neurological cascade that ketamine initiates in your brain is a biological process that unfolds on its own. You cannot stop it, change it, or do it “wrong.” The vivid thoughts or emotions you may experience during a session are temporary, medication-driven experiences, similar to dreaming, and they do not determine your outcome or hold deeper meaning.
