Wholeness Center – Fort Collins, Colorado Ketamine Clinics

Wholeness Center is a mental health clinic that provides Ketamine treatments and other naturopathic services and treatments. Their approach aims to improve the body, mind, and spirit. Servicing Fort Collins and Northern Colorado, Wholeness Center offers a new vision of alternative natural mental health, integrative medicine, functional medicine, and behavioral health care.

Examples of mental and behavioral health services include integrative psychiatry, IV Therapy, neurofeedback, nutritional support, and more. These services treat a variety of conditions such as anxiety, depression, ADD, ADHD, among others.

When it comes to ketamine treatments, Wholeness Center recommends them for patients who have tried psychiatric treatments or therapies but been unsuccessful in reducing your symptoms, if you want a broadened perspective of your condition, or you’re open to having a spiritual or mystical experience in order to transform and relieve symptoms.

A large staff of experienced professionals at Wholeness Center work under one roof, from social workers to psychiatric nurse practitioners. This allows the clinic to blend the best of multiple fields and provide the resources necessary to restore positive health and wholeness.
