HealingMaps Take: Serenity Mental Health Centers brings the resources and infrastructure of a larger practice to ketamine therapy, which can be a benefit for patients who want coordinated psychiatric care alongside their ketamine treatments. With over 500 reviews and a 4-star rating, patient sentiment is generally positive, with particular praise for attentive providers and a supportive clinical environment. Some patients have noted occasional billing and scheduling hiccups common to larger multi-location practices. The Lakewood location is a solid option for patients seeking ketamine infusions within a full-spectrum psychiatric setting.
Market Position: Serenity Mental Health treats both depression and PTSD — the two most common ketamine therapy indications, accounting for 34% of HealingMaps patient inquiries.

⚠ FDA-cleared indications for TMS therapy: treatment-resistant major depressive disorder (MDD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD, Deep TMS only), anxious depression, short-term smoking cessation, and adolescent MDD (ages 15–21). Use of TMS for other conditions including PTSD, bipolar depression, fibromyalgia, and other indications is off-label — not currently FDA-cleared for those specific indications. Discuss your condition with the clinic to understand insurance coverage and clinical evidence.

Patient Questions about Serenity Mental Health
This question is matched to the conditions Serenity Mental Health treats. Editorial responses are HealingMaps-authored, grounded in our 2026 Ketamine Clinic Intelligence Report.
Does Serenity Mental Health treat PTSD?
Yes — Serenity Mental 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.
This clinic also offers TMS therapy as an FDA-cleared, insurance-covered option for patients with treatment-resistant depression. Patients drive themselves to and from sessions, return to work the same day, and need no chaperone or recovery period. This clinic uses BrainsWay Deep TMS, the only TMS device with standalone FDA clearance for OCD via the H7 coil. Read our complete guide to TMS therapy for FDA-cleared conditions, device differences, insurance coverage by carrier, and what to expect at your first appointment.

EDIT: BE CAREFUL WITH THEIR BILLING DEPARTMENT. They are literally committing fraud with their billing practices and will be reported for it on the state and federal level.
My partner went to get set up with a psychiatrist to further an already set in place treatment plan that was starting that day. After a short interview they sent my partner to the ER as a suicide risk. It was the absolute worst thing they could have done and the psychiatrist even said she thought it was wrong as she called the ambulance. The experience kept him from taking his meds and exacerbated the problem like you wouldn’t believe.
He followed up to let Serenity know they made a really bad call and to be more cautious in the future. They never returned the call and didn’t even bother to send the bill to his insurance and are trying to charge us $500.
I hope they at least heard his call, even if they didn’t return it as requested. Very unprofessional and very unsupportive. I think the psychiatrist was fairly new so additional training is absolutely needed.
