Why Choose Us for Ketamine Detoxification and Treatment

Treating a ketamine addiction involves therapy and other treatments to address the physical and psychological effects of addiction. At Four Seasons Detox we combine many different therapeutic interventions and therapy modalities to help you break free from addiction. Our team is committed to helping you defeat your ketamine addiction and providing you with the best chance of long-term recovery.

What is Ketamine?

You may have heard of ketamine either in veterinary practice or in the treatment of depression. An FDA-approved anesthetic, ketamine has now become widely abused by many. Ketamine addiction is a serious concern, as the drug can lead to physical and psychological dependence, withdrawal symptoms, and potential long-term damage.

Ketamine developed in Belgium decades ago as a medication for animals in veterinary practice. When it became an FDA-approved anesthetic, it was used widely during the Vietnam War. Following this, ketamine treatment became utilized in emergency medicine to calm suicidal patients suffering from severe anxiety, severe depression, bipolar depression, and other mood disorders. However, due to the quick sedative and euphoric effects of ketamine, it has become commonly abused.

What is Ketamine Therapy/Ketamine Treatments?

In recent years, ketamine has become an increasingly popular drug to treat chronic pain conditions and treatment-resistant depression. Ketamine infusion therapy, or IV ketamine infusions, involves infusing ketamine at a controlled rate by a healthcare provider. This treatment is strictly monitored by a medical team. When people begin abusing ketamine and using it in a way other than indicated by their provider, it can lead to addiction.

Ketamine Withdrawal & Ketamine Detoxification

The ketamine addiction recovery process begins with detox. Ketamine detoxification may look different depending on how long and often you have been abusing Ketamine. Undergoing detox at a treatment center is advised to enhance your safety and comfort. At Four Seasons Detox, we offer medical detox services that can be customized to fit your unique detox needs.

During detox, our medical professionals will determine if medication-assisted treatment is right for you based on your unique situation. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) involves using specific medications to decrease cravings and ease ketamine withdrawal symptoms.

During the Ketamine detox process, addiction specialists will offer 24/7 support to ensure that your symptoms do not escalate and that you remain comfortable. Following Ketamine detox, we encourage clients to enter residential treatment to explore the root causes of their Ketamine addiction, which is an essential next step in long-term recovery. In addition, ketamine abuse can lead to a host of health issues if left untreated.

Types of Ketamine Addiction Treatment

Several options are available to treat Ketamine addiction. Levels of care include:

Inpatient Treatment

Inpatient treatment, otherwise referred to as residential rehab, provides a safe and structured atmosphere where clients live at our treatment facility for around-the-clock care and support. The length of stay at an inpatient treatment center depends on many factors, such as substance abuse history and other medical concerns. During inpatient treatment, clients will participate in group, individual, and family therapy sessions. These therapy sessions provide an essential opportunity to develop the skills needed for lasting recovery.

Partial Hospitalization Treatment

After completing residential treatment, clients may continue on to a partial hospitalization program (PHP). This level of care provides intensive support on an outpatient basis. Clients participate in treatment most days of the week and then return home in the evenings. During a PHP, clients will participate in various types of therapy to learn more about their addiction and how to create a healthy routine free from substance abuse.

Outpatient Treatment

After completing a higher level of care, clients can continue on to outpatient treatment. This level of care, which meets less frequently than a PHP, allows individuals to receive care on a ongoing basis. It can help reinforce recovery skills for maintaining sobriety long-term.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment

Dual diagnosis treatment is used to address mental health disorders that co-occur with addiction. Mental health disorders can include anxiety disorders, depression, eating disorders, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and more.

Therapies Used to Treat Ketamine Addiction

Depending on the program you take part in, you may be offered some combination of the following therapy sessions and programs.

Individual Therapy Sessions

In individual therapy sessions, clients meet with a clinical therapist to talk about their addiction and any mental health struggles. Individuals can discuss their emotions, triggers that have affected their addiction, and ways to overcome challenges in recovery.

Group Therapy Sessions

While attending group therapy, clients meet with other individuals who are also working toward lasting recovery. During group therapy, clients get the chance to strengthen their support network to help reinforce their ketamine recovery.

Family Therapy Sessions

It’s common for those struggling with ketamine addiction to have loved ones who have been negatively affected by their addiction. During family therapy, a licensed clinical therapist will work with individuals and their families to discuss addiction’s impact on the family, resolve conflicts, and improve communication skills.

Therapeutic Activities

Therapeutic activities offer a creative outlet to develop coping skills for ketamine addiction recovery. These therapies may include nature therapy, animal therapy, art therapy, meditation therapy, music therapy, and more.
