✓ Last verified: January 23, 2026 — Edited & verified by Angelica Bottaro for HealingMaps Editorial Staff

Known For: Functional and integrative medicine clinic with over 2,500 IV ketamine sessions overseen by Julie Hamilton, NP, combining ketamine with whole-body wellness

HealingMaps Take: Forum Health Austin (formerly Texas Integrative) brings a unique functional medicine perspective to ketamine therapy. With Julie Hamilton overseeing more than 2,500 IV ketamine sessions, patients benefit from deep clinical experience. What sets them apart is the integrative approach — they can address underlying contributors to mood disorders like gut health, hormones, and environmental exposures alongside ketamine treatment.

Market Position: Forum Health offers the full ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) protocol alongside medical-only ketamine dosing — one of the more integrated treatment menus in the Austin metro.

2. Medical evaluation — in-person or telehealth psychiatric assessment, vitals check, and review of current medications with the Forum Health clinical team.
3. First treatment session — supervised IV ketamine infusion in a private treatment room, lasting approximately 60–90 minutes (40-minute infusion + recovery). Sessions are held at 2200 Park Bend, Bldg 1, Suite 201, Austin, TX. You’ll have a comfortable chair or recliner, dim lighting, and direct medical monitoring throughout.
4. Recovery and follow-up — observation period after dosing, mood check-in with the clinical team, and scheduling your next session. Arrange for a ride home; do not drive for 24 hours after your IV session.

What to Ask on Your Forum Health Consult Call

• How long has the Forum Health clinical team been delivering ketamine therapy, and what specialty training do your providers hold?
• Does Forum Health provide a superbill for out-of-network insurance reimbursement, and what’s a typical 6-session total cost including any follow-up?
• Texas has limited insurance coverage for IV ketamine — what’s the typical out-of-pocket cost trajectory for cash-pay patients in your practice?
• Is the therapist who guides KAP sessions independently licensed, and how long are integration sessions after the dosing portion?
• What does Forum Health recommend for patients who don’t respond to the standard 6-session acute series?

Patient Questions about Forum Health

This 3-question summary is matched to the protocols and conditions Forum Health treats. Editorial responses are HealingMaps-authored, grounded in our 2026 Ketamine Clinic Intelligence Report.

Is Forum Health suited for treatment-resistant depression?

Forum Health treats depression via IV ketamine (off-label, evidence-based). Insurance coverage is rare for IV/KAP — most patients pay out of pocket. TRD is typically defined as two or more prior antidepressant trials without sufficient response — patients meeting that bar are best candidates here.

Does Forum Health treat PTSD?

Yes — Forum Health 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.

Can Forum Health help with anxiety disorders?

Yes — Forum Health treats anxiety, including generalized anxiety, social anxiety, and panic disorder. The evidence base for ketamine in anxiety is less robust than for depression, but it can be a meaningful option for patients who haven’t responded to SSRIs or benzodiazepines. Worth asking which of their protocols they typically recommend for anxiety-primary patients.
