HealingMaps Take: Breakthru covers the full interventional-psychiatry toolkit under one psychiatrist: IV ketamine for rapid response, insurance-billable Spravato for treatment-resistant depression, and TMS for a drug-free option. For north-metro patients weighing cash-pay infusions against covered esketamine, having both routes in one practice (Sandy Springs and Alpharetta) makes it easy to start with whichever fits the diagnosis and budget. It is a medical, psychiatrist-run model rather than a therapy-forward or KAP setting.

Market Position: Breakthru occupies the physician-led, multi-modal interventional slot in Atlanta’s north suburbs — IV ketamine + Spravato + TMS under one psychiatrist. Dual Sandy Springs/Alpharetta offices and the insurance-billable Spravato and TMS pathways are the differentiators versus cash-only infusion clinics.

Patient Review

“Having IV ketamine and Spravato both available meant I could start with what my insurance covered and still have options. Dr. Giles actually managed my medications alongside the treatments instead of just running infusions.”

About Breakthru Psychiatric Solutions

Breakthru Psychiatric Solutions is a physician-led psychiatric practice serving Atlanta’s north suburbs from two offices — 755 Mount Vernon Hwy NE, Suite 220 in Sandy Springs (30328) and 3400 Old Milton Pkwy, Building C, Suite 285 in Alpharetta (30005). The interventional program is directed by psychiatrist Karen Giles, MD.

The practice offers three interventional treatments for depression: IV ketamine infusions, Spravato (esketamine) under FDA REMS certification with in-office monitoring, and TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation). Spravato and TMS are billable to insurance, while IV ketamine is typically self-pay — giving patients a covered pathway and a rapid-response option under the same roof.

Because treatment is psychiatrist-directed, Breakthru coordinates interventional care with diagnosis and medication management rather than treating infusions in isolation. Conditions treated include treatment-resistant depression, major depressive disorder, depression with suicidal ideation, anxiety, bipolar depression, PTSD, and OCD.
