How It Works
Our concierge model means every step is clinically rigorous and deeply relational.
Ketamine Therapy augments traditional talk therapy to help patients identify, understand, accept, and process their deepest emotional material. For many, this includes working through depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, loss, terminal illness, or existential distress. The interdisciplinary team at Althea NOLA provides facilitated treatment sessions in a thoughtfully-designed container of safety — grounded in preparation, presence, and integration. We provide warm presence, authentic connection, and continuity at every step.
This call is not an intake. It is a brief, honest conversation to help you gauge whether this approach feels different from what you have tried before. We listen to what is bringing you here, answer your questions, and help you decide whether taking the next step feels right. There is no pressure and no obligation.
Our medical team evaluates your full clinical picture — health history, current medications, and suitability for treatment — to ensure ketamine is a safe, evidence-based fit for your specific presentation, not a generic protocol. Paying for the intake does not guarantee treatment. If we determine this is not the right fit, we will say so honestly. That assessment is the intake working as intended.
Preparation is not administrative — it is therapeutic. We build the relational container, establish your intentions, and help your nervous system know what is coming before medicine is ever introduced. The medicine session itself opens a temporary window of neuroplasticity — a catalyst, not a magic bullet. Our clinical team is with you throughout, monitoring both your physiological state and your psychological process. Integration is where lasting change takes root: the active process of translating what surfaces during the medicine session into concrete shifts in your daily life, your relationships, and your self-perception. Relief without integration is temporary.
