Save your spot — it’s free

Most of what people hear about ketamine comes from headlines: a party drug, a breakthrough, a celebrity’s story. The treatment psychiatrists use for depression is quieter and more careful than any of them. This hour is about what it actually is.

Save your spot

Free. Online. Name and email — that’s all we ask.

What the hour covers

A 15-minute talk, then your questions.

What ketamine is, and why psychiatrists began using it for depression
How ketamine and Spravato® differ, and what the FDA has approved
Who it may help, and how a psychiatrist decides whether it fits
What a treatment session is actually like
How insurance fits in

You can send questions in when you register, and ask them anonymously on the night. It runs as a webinar, so attendees can’t see or hear one another. The session is recorded; only Dr. Yudkoff appears in the recording.
