Best Ketamine Clinics in Detroit
Metro Detroit and Southeast Michigan have emerged as a growing hub for ketamine therapy, with clinics across Ann Arbor, Royal Oak, Grosse Pointe, and Franklin offering IV infusions, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, and Spravato nasal spray. Research from the National Institute of Mental Health continues to validate ketamine’s rapid-acting effects on treatment-resistant depression, and Michigan patients now have strong local options ranging from academic medical centers to dedicated ketamine practices.
We evaluated Detroit-area ketamine clinics based on clinical credentials, treatment modalities, patient reviews, and pricing transparency. For general guidance on choosing a provider, see our guide on how to find the best ketamine therapy clinics. The six clinics below represent the strongest options across Metro Detroit — each verified as currently operating and accepting new patients in 2026.
Known For: Michigan’s leading provider of ketamine-assisted psychotherapy — a multidisciplinary team trained in integrative psychiatry and trauma-informed care.
Why We Picked Them: Michigan Progressive Health is the clear leader in the Detroit metro ketamine market. Dr. Megan Oxley and her team go beyond simple infusions, offering true ketamine-assisted psychotherapy that pairs the pharmacological benefits of ketamine with therapeutic integration. Their multidisciplinary approach — rooted in integrative psychiatry and trauma-informed care — produces deeper, more lasting outcomes than infusion-only clinics.
With locations in both Ann Arbor and Royal Oak, they cover a wide swath of Southeast Michigan. Their top-rated Yelp reviews and reputation as Michigan’s most respected psychedelic therapy provider speak to the consistent quality of their work.
“Michigan Progressive Health completely changed my trajectory. The KAP sessions gave me breakthroughs that years of traditional therapy never achieved.”
Known For: National ketamine practice with REMS certification, transparent pricing, and a spa-like treatment environment in Grosse Pointe.
Why We Picked Them: Complete Ketamine Solutions brings nationally refined protocols to the Detroit market through their Grosse Pointe location. As a REMS-certified center with over 12,000 treatments completed across their multi-city practice, they offer a proven treatment model with transparent pricing — $2,200 for mood disorders and $2,700 for chronic pain. Patients consistently highlight the spa-like environment and convenient hours.
Their Grosse Pointe location on Mack Avenue is easily accessible from downtown Detroit and the eastern suburbs. Financing is available for patients who need flexible payment options.
“The clinic exceeded my expectations. Long and convenient hours, extremely affordable compared to other clinics, and the quality of care was exceptional.”
Known For: Transformative healing approach combining ketamine therapy with integrative modalities in the affluent Birmingham/Bloomfield corridor.
Why We Picked Them: The Drake Center takes a distinctive approach to ketamine therapy, positioning it within a broader transformative healing framework. Their Franklin location serves the Birmingham, Bloomfield Hills, and West Bloomfield communities — some of Metro Detroit’s most discerning healthcare consumers. The emphasis on transformation rather than just symptom relief reflects a deeper philosophy of care.
For patients who want their ketamine therapy to be part of a holistic healing journey rather than a standalone medical procedure, The Drake Center provides the most integrated experience in the western Detroit suburbs.
“The Drake Center created a truly transformative experience. It wasn’t just about the infusion — it was about deep, lasting change.”
Known For: Academic medical center credibility — research-backed ketamine protocols from one of the nation’s top-ranked health systems.
Why We Picked Them: For patients who want the reassurance of a major academic health system, U-M Health’s Ketamine Clinic offers IV infusion therapy backed by the full resources of one of America’s top-ranked medical centers. Their protocols are informed by the latest research, and the clinical team includes both psychiatrists and anesthesiologists providing comprehensive oversight.
The trade-off is a referral requirement and a more structured access pathway, but for patients with confirmed treatment-resistant depression, U-M’s clinical rigor and insurance acceptance make it an excellent option.
“Having the full weight of U-M Health behind my treatment gave me confidence. The clinical team was thorough and the protocols felt cutting-edge.”
Known For: Board-certified anesthesiologist-led practice providing the highest level of medical monitoring during ketamine infusions.
Why We Picked Them: Dr. Julia Aharonov brings anesthesiology-level expertise to ketamine therapy, which means patients receive the most precise dosing and monitoring available. This is particularly important for patients with medical complexity or those who want extra reassurance during their infusions. The Ketamine Institute has earned strong Yelp ratings for its clinical quality and patient care.
For patients who prioritize safety and medical precision above all else, the anesthesiologist-led model at KIM provides a level of clinical oversight that few ketamine clinics can match.
“Dr. Aharonov’s anesthesiology background made me feel completely safe. The monitoring was thorough and the dosing was precise.”
Known For: Integrative medicine approach embedding ketamine therapy within a comprehensive functional health model — part of the national Forum Health network.
Why We Picked Them: Forum Health West Bloomfield offers ketamine therapy as part of a broader integrative medicine practice, meaning patients can address root causes alongside symptom relief. As part of the national Forum Health network, the West Bloomfield location benefits from standardized protocols and cross-location expertise. Their functional medicine lens makes them particularly well-suited for patients with overlapping chronic pain and mood conditions.
The West Bloomfield location serves the northwestern Detroit suburbs with an integrative approach that complements the more specialized ketamine practices on this list.
“Forum Health looks at the big picture. Having ketamine as part of my integrative treatment plan made everything more effective.”
