Psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy is an emerging clinical approach, studied primarily in contexts where conventional treatments have not produced the expected results.
At The Clinic of Change, this approach is used exclusively in a clinical setting, following a thorough evaluation, under medical supervision, and with appropriate psychotherapeutic integration.
It is not a quick fix, nor is it suitable for every situation.
It combines the controlled use of certain substances in a clinical setting with structured psychotherapeutic support before and after the experience.
The focus is not on the substance, but on the therapeutic process and clinical integration.
At The Clinic of Change, psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy is always part of a structured clinical process, which includes:
This framework is essential to ensuring the safety, effectiveness, and therapeutic value of the process.
In some persistent or treatment-resistant cases, the incorporation of advanced therapeutic approaches may be considered, always following a thorough clinical evaluation.
At The Clinic of Change, this may include psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, conducted exclusively in a clinical setting. This is not a first-line approach nor is it suitable for all cases; it depends on the patient’s medical history, response to previous treatments, and a careful assessment of the benefits and risks.
Esketamine is a medication used to treat treatment-resistant depression. At The Clinic of Change, we administer Esketamine when deemed clinically indicated by our specialized team.
How Does It Work?
Escetamine is effective in providing rapid relief from symptoms of depression, including low mood, anxiety, loss of pleasure or interest, lack of energy, and changes in sleep and appetite. This treatment is recommended for adults with Treatment-Resistant Depression, defined as a lack of response to at least two full courses of treatment with antidepressants.
In addition, esketamine can be used in urgent situations, such as severe episodes of depression and suicidal ideation, due to its rapid onset of action (within 1 to 4 weeks).
Administration
Escetamine is administered using a nasal spray device, always under medical supervision. The treatment will be supervised by a healthcare professional, who will monitor the patient throughout the process. The dosage and frequency of treatment are determined by the doctor, depending on the patient’s needs and clinical condition.
Our team is on hand to guide each patient, ensuring the safety and efficacy of treatment with Esketamine.
