Elixir Wellness Collective – Bend, Oregon Ketamine Clinics

✓ Edited by Angelica Bottaro for HealingMaps Editorial Staff

Known For: Elixir Wellness Collective runs a structured, therapist-led Ketamine-Assisted Therapy Program in Bend, with troche, nasal spray and IV ketamine offered under one roof. Every path starts with a short eligibility questionnaire, a conversation with the program director and an in-person medical intake; preparation happens with Elixir’s team, and integration can be done with Elixir or with a patient’s own therapist. Intake and journey sessions are in person, and many of the other appointments can happen by telehealth.

HealingMaps Take: Elixir runs a therapist-led Ketamine-Assisted Therapy Program inside a broader integrative clinic. Nina Hersher, CSWA directs the program and facilitates sessions, while family nurse practitioners Mackenzie Hartmann and Jordan Sirtoli provide medical clearance, oversight and IV administration. Troche, nasal spray and IV ketamine are all offered under one roof, which is uncommon; most clinics offer one route, occasionally two. Preparation is included, and for integration patients can work with Elixir’s team or with their own therapist. The medical intake may be billable to insurance depending on the plan, and financing is available for packages of three or more sessions. There is no Spravato and no IM ketamine here; patients set on an insurance-billed esketamine program should look at REMS-certified providers instead.

Market Position: Elixir Wellness Collective holds the therapist-led Ketamine-Assisted Therapy slot in the Bend market — three administration routes with structured preparation and integration, inside an integrative clinic that also offers naturopathic medicine, functional medicine, chiropractic care, and massage therapy.
