Medical evaluation — in-person or telehealth psychiatric assessment, vitals check, and review of current medications with the Kind Heart Therapy & Wellness clinical team.
First treatment session — supervised ketamine therapy session in a private treatment room, lasting approximately 60–90 minutes.

Patient Questions about Kind Heart Therapy & Wellness
This 3-question summary is matched to the protocols and conditions Kind Heart Therapy & Wellness treats. Editorial responses are HealingMaps-authored, grounded in our 2026 Ketamine Clinic Intelligence Report.
Does Kind Heart Therapy & Wellness offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP)?
Yes — Kind Heart Therapy & Wellness offers KAP, which combines ketamine dosing with structured psychotherapy during the dissociative window. KAP sessions are longer than standalone infusions and priced accordingly. A reasonable consult question: whether KAP is delivered by a single integrated provider, or by a separate therapist working with the prescribing clinician.
Is Kind Heart Therapy & Wellness suited for treatment-resistant depression?
Kind Heart Therapy & Wellness treats depression via KAP for trauma-anchored depression. 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.
Can Kind Heart Therapy & Wellness help with anxiety disorders?
Yes — Kind Heart Therapy & Wellness 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.
