I want to share my experience with Clear Mind Treatment. I was referred to the clinic specifically…read morefor their ketamine therapy, seeking help for long-standing trauma, depression, and anxiety. As a 54-year-old man who has struggled for years with self-doubt and mental health challenges, I was ready to try something new after other treatments had failed me.
When I entered the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), I didn't fully grasp the time commitment it would require--but at this point in my life, I was willing to do whatever it took while still managing a business and my personal responsibilities.
My first meaningful encounter was with the founder, Rishi Khatri, who personally drove out to deliver my medications. I was scheduled for up to two ketamine treatments per week but chose to begin with one. Rishi took time to guide me through the process--discussing intentions, preparing me for what to expect, and ensuring I felt safe and supported. His approach immediately put me at ease, despite my initial apprehension about using a psychedelic.
Over the next four weeks, Rishi was like a sherpa--gently guiding me through each session with a genuine focus on my safety, well-being, and desire to heal. The ketamine therapy itself was the most eye-opening and transformative treatment I've ever experienced. It helped me break down internal walls, access parts of myself I didn't know existed, and confront traumas that had been buried for years.
Soon after starting, I was introduced to my care team: a supportive, encouraging group dedicated to helping me navigate the healing process. My assigned therapist, John Lubbers, who specializes in Internal Family Systems (IFS), worked closely with me to unravel and address the complex emotional challenges I was facing. Kaitlin Hoover, another assigned therapist discussed with me my sessions with John, how my week was going, assessing my every move and was available if I was finding myself struggling through the highly intense process. Kaitlin was at certain times, my lifeline, her care, authentic consideration for my wellbeing was felt throughout the entire process.
I would strongly recommend this therapy to anyone struggling with PTSD, abuse, depression, or anxiety. For me, it was not only a therapeutic experience--it was a "gateway" that allowed the accompanying talk therapy to have a deeper, more meaningful impact.
After what I felt exhausted the Ketamine Therapy, I was next introduced to Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which I had very little knowledge of. I was introduced to my fourth therapist, Tru Azul, that is an expert with this modality, which was something I had not heard of prior to this. The experience I had over the following six weeks with the treatments was again life changing. Tru was my guide through this entire process and I was amazed at her ability to see right through many of my internal struggles. She was able to break through not only with the EMDR, but through deep and direct discussion with me. I will never forget this woman, who cut through my pain and trauma and showed me who I truly was inside. She is a true intuitive healer.
I would recommend Clear Mind Treatment to anyone that is truly looking to improve their life, healing old wounds and traumas so you too can live a fulfilling life.
Thank you, from the bottom of my hear to the entire team that held me, guided me and protected me through a very emotional process.
