We want to provide the treatment you need to feel better — and we need to follow you at regular intervals to do that.
To schedule an appointment or to obtain additional information about our practice, please call us at 860.648.9755 between 8 am and 5 pm.
We’re accepting new patients for Ketamine Treatment and new patients for Metabolic Psychiatry.
We’re not accepting new patients who are only looking for psychopharmacology. That arm of our practice is full.
We invite you to visit our Ketamine pages for information about this extraordinary treatment that is bringing countless patients hope and remarkable improvement.
Visit our Metabolic Psychiatry page and our Ketogenic Psychiatry blogs if you’re interested in using food as medicine to jumpstart your metabolism, lose weight, treat your psychiatric symptoms, fire up your brain, reduce your anxiety, and possibly taper off (or not even start) psychiatric medications. We’re doing trailblazing work, and presenting our extraordinary results with our patients in our Touchpoints 180TM program at national conferences.
Ketamine Appointments
Your first appointment for a ketamine consultation will last 2 hours and may include your first treatment if ketamine treatment is appropriate for you.
Follow-up appointments are important to ensure your well-being, and will depend on the treatment you’re receiving, and your need for preparation and integration work, and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. Ketamine treatments are scheduled for 90 minutes.
Metabolic Psychiatry Appointments
We have lots of starting points for you to choose from and ways to schedule your first meeting with us, with 1, 2 or 3 touchpoints.
Our most comprehensive evaluation offers you 3 separate appointments with joint feedback at the end. It’s incredibly comprehensive. We determine if a metabolic psychiatry approach would be safe, medically appropriate and effective for you, and how this approach could be integrated with lifestyle changes and any other treatment you may need. Follow-ups are frequent and convenient — we make it work.
Psychopharmacology Appointments
We are not accepting new patients for psychopharmacology. Psychopharmacology (medication management) is offered by telemedicine only to current patients and scheduled in 15 minute blocks.
If you would like to include a family member in your appointment or need more than the scheduled time, please let us know so that we can schedule a double appointment or reschedule you for a longer block of time.
If you often require more time, or require extended time due to missed appointments or too long an interval since your last appointment, you will be charged for a double appointment and asked to schedule a double appointment in the future.
We make every effort to try to accommodate your needs and — if you’re prescribed medication — to ensure that you have enough to last until your next visit.
Certain psychiatric medications cannot be refilled without an appointment
If you request a refill before your next scheduled appointment but need to be seen, we’ll indicate this to your pharmacy or contact you to come in for an office visit before we can refill your prescription.
In certain cases, we may authorize the pharmacy to dispense a few days’ worth of medication until we can schedule you to be seen.
Given the complexities of life, psychiatric symptoms themselves, and the medications we use, it is critically important that we follow you carefully and that you keep your follow-up appointments.
The relief you want and need is available through regular follow-ups so we can address issues as they arise.
Cancellation Policy
We understand that there are times when you must miss a scheduled appointment because of illness, emergencies, or other obligations. We know. We’ve been there, too.
However, if you do not cancel your appointment at least one day in advance, you prevent another patient from getting much needed treatment or from being seen that day for an urgent problem.
If you miss your appointment and have not notified us at least one day in advance, you will be charged your full appointment fee.
Please contact us to schedule the time you need for us to help you reach a better state of well-being.
We want to see you thrive.
