Important Info
While most insurers do not currently pay for the ketamine-assisted psychotherapy sessions themselves, they do usually cover the many hours of physician and therapist visits included in Asheville Integrative Psychiatry’s protocol and their medical record keeping software is designed to provide “super-bills” that can be given to insurers for reimbursement.
$4,800 is the maximum cost for the 6-week protocol with 4 KAP sessions, 20 hours of individual therapy, and 4 months of group therapy. This price includes a nonrefundable $300 intake assessment fee.
Your Treatment: What to Expect
Asheville Integrative Psychiatry’s 6-week protocol includes a comprehensive therapeutic and medical assessment and follow-up, hours of weekly experiential therapy focused on nature connection at its mountain retreat center, and 4-6 months of post-treatment group therapy. The ketamine-assisted psychotherapy sessions are conducted outdoors when possible and attended by a therapist specifically trained and experienced in psychedelic therapy and all sessions are monitored by a physician.
I’ve never had a treatment so effective in my entire life. The combination of medicine and therapy allowed me to go into topics in my mind that i didn’t realize were driving my behaviors and my feelings of anxiety and depression. I will admit it was a leap of faith to try this approach, but not i am certain this was what ive needed all along. I’m emotionally free to enjoy my daily life, prepared to enter into my retirement years with peace of mind and I’m as emotionally available to my wife as i should be. My wife is quick to tell friends “ I got my husband back.”. This practice sets the standard for care.
Dr Sauls and her team helped me tremendously. I was dealing with anxiety, depression, and PTSD from a previous job that had become paralyzing. All of these issues are gone and/or manageable after going through the protocol at Asheville Integrative Psychiatry. 10/10 would recommend.
