Your Treatment: What to Expect
Ketamine is administered over a period of 40-60 minutes at Montana Psychiatry on an outpatient basis. The dose is determined by your weight and by your response to previous infusions.
The amount of ketamine administered is not enough to cause a loss of consciousness, so you will remain awake, but relaxed. Blood pressure and heart rate are measured at the beginning of treatment and at a few intervals during the infusion. During the infusion, some patients experience odd perceptions – like seeing bright colors, sounds sounding amplified or far away, or feeling a distortion of the passage of time. Some report what is referred to as “dissociative” or “out of body” experience. These are effects of ketamine that may be important for ketamine’s ultimate effectiveness. Most patients tolerate the experiences with no trouble, and many people find them pleasant. Montana Psychiatry’s highly experienced RN is on hand throughout the treatment to provide support and to make sure the experience is tailored to your needs.
Once the infusion is complete, the dissociative effects of the drug rapidly dissipate. There are no delayed “flashbacks” and patients generally leave the office within 30 minutes following the infusion and feel quite normal.
Following the initial series of infusions, if you have had a positive response to ketamine, you will work with Dr. Amato and her team to plan a maintenance program, which involves returning for single infusions intermittently. The interval between maintenance infusions varies from patient to patient. Most responsive patients receive a series of six infusions, but Dr. Amato will work with you to customize your treatment plan for the best chance of success.
Patient Questions about Montana Psychiatry Brain Health Center
This 3-question summary is matched to the protocols and conditions Montana Psychiatry Brain Health Center treats. Editorial responses are HealingMaps-authored, grounded in our 2026 Ketamine Clinic Intelligence Report.
Is Montana Psychiatry Brain Health Center suited for treatment-resistant depression?
Montana Psychiatry Brain Health Center 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 Montana Psychiatry Brain Health Center treat PTSD?
Yes — Montana Psychiatry Brain Health Center 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 Montana Psychiatry Brain Health Center help with anxiety disorders?
Yes — Montana Psychiatry Brain Health Center 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.
I know this is not where I am supposed to comment because I have never been to your facility before, but I would like to know when I could set up an appointment to meet with Dr Amatto to discuss my situation. Also, I would like to know the cost of each individual session. I think I really need this as nothing seems to be working for me in the past three and one half years. Thank you.
