Patient Questions about Cope Psychiatry
This question is matched to the conditions Cope Psychiatry treats. Editorial responses are HealingMaps-authored, grounded in our 2026 Ketamine Clinic Intelligence Report.
Does Cope Psychiatry treat PTSD?
Yes — Cope Psychiatry treats PTSD. Ketamine for trauma differs from depression treatment: dosing is often lower per session, and pairing the protocol with trauma-focused therapy between sessions is common. A reasonable consult question: whether PTSD patients here typically use ketamine alone or alongside an outside therapist.
Be careful with this clinic that sells you the idea of Ketamine treatment as a cure for your mental health problems. The owner, Abraham, who calls himself a psychiatrist, will mess you up with medications that will affect your nervous system and mind. DO NOT TRUST THIS GUY, HE IS A FAKE. I complained to a government agency about his “care and treatment,” and he responded by lying about me and making up stories that never happened about my family and me. He dragged me through the mud, violating doctor/patient information. He called me names, vilified me, and lashed out because he had a big ego and couldn’t deal with the fact that he was a liar and a bad doctor. This guy shouldn’t be allowed to practice medicine and “treat” people with mental conditions. He is just after your money and won’t care about you.
