Voyage Healing is a unique ketamine clinic which emphasizes psychotherapy in addition to ketamine treatments. Dr. Serruya and her team believe that adding psychotherapy to ketamine (ketamine assisted psychotherapy) may help enhance and sustain ketamine’s effects. At Voyage Healing, the patient is not just a passive recipient, but an active participant in the treatment. Conditions treated include depression, bipolar depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, OCD, and suicidality.
The ketamine clinic is led by Dr. Gail Serruya, a board-certified psychiatrist specialist with over 15 years of experience. Her staff include those who offer yoga therapy, relational psychotherapy, breathwork, CBT, hypnosis, music therapy, and internal family systems. She and her team at Voyage Healing are passionate about helping people heal through combining biological and psychological methodology. They offer comprehensive and individualized plans in a warm and welcoming environment.

Your Treatment: What to Expect at Voyage Healilng
Voyage Healing’s aim is for you to feel as comfortable as possible. You will be given eyeshades, headphones, and supplied with a curated music playlist for Ketamine. Most patients enjoy this experience, but Ketamine may feel different to different people. Many describe a floating sensation and a sense of dissociating from their body. Many feel peace and calm. Some may feel euphoria. Others find the experience scary (feeling scared is greatly reduced when one is prepared properly and in the company of a therapist). Some experience a deep sense of spirituality. At slightly higher doses, one may experience psychedelic phenomena, including hallucinations and ego dissolution. Throughout the entire process, you’ll be monitored by one of the clinic’s highly-trained staff.
