HealingMaps Take: HAPS is the first Spravato provider on HealingMaps for the Harrisburg metro itself, and it was built for exactly the patient who kept getting routed to Lancaster or Philadelphia. The model is a small, founder-led practice: Brendan Donahue, PMHNP, provides psychiatry, CBT-based psychotherapy and Spravato, with licensed therapists collaborating on the talk-therapy side. Psychiatry and therapy visits are currently telehealth, with in-person visits announced as coming soon; Spravato, because of the medication’s monitoring rules, is always administered in person at the clinic. The insurer list is unusually specific for a practice this size, and VA Community Care membership makes it one of the few esketamine options in central Pennsylvania a veteran can be referred to. Two practical notes: the practice publishes no phone number or email, so intake runs through the online booking form, and there is no IV ketamine or ketamine-assisted psychotherapy here.
Market Position: HAPS holds the Spravato slot in the Harrisburg market — the only REMS-certified esketamine clinic on HealingMaps in Dauphin County, differentiated by its eight-insurer network list and VA Community Care participation.

Patient Questions about HAPS
This 5-question summary is matched to the protocols and conditions HAPS treats. Editorial responses are HealingMaps-authored.
What ketamine protocols does HAPS offer?
HAPS offers Spravato (Esketamine, REMS-certified, in person) + Psychiatry & Medication Management + CBT-based Psychotherapy (telehealth). Confirm specific dosing schedules during your consult.
Does HAPS offer Spravato (esketamine)?
Yes — HAPS offers Spravato, which means they’re FDA REMS-certified and maintain the required two-hour in-office monitoring window after each dose.
Does HAPS offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP)?
HAPS operates a medical-model program. Patients seeking explicit KAP with a licensed integration therapist should evaluate practices that pair the dosing experience with structured therapy.
Is HAPS suited for treatment-resistant depression?
HAPS treats treatment-resistant depression. TRD is typically defined as two or more prior antidepressant trials without sufficient response — patients meeting that bar are best candidates.
