Ketamine Therapy Portland — Ketamine Clinic in Portland, OR

Ketamine has been a life saver for me. I had intractable anxiety and depression. I was looking at a lifetime of drugs to treat and once I started ketamine I had immediate relief of most of my symptoms.

Depression and Anxiety are greatly improved. Thank you!

I had such a great experience with Ketamine Therapy Portland. My experience felt profound and impactful yet very relaxing. Knowing the science backs it up was such a relief to know I don’t need to dissect and “figure it out”, just experience the treatment and let my brain heal. I felt so comfortable, safe and held and was able to totally relax into it. Jesus was very welcoming, attentive and made sure I was comfortable while also allowing me to have the space to journey without unnecessary interruption. I couldn’t be more grateful to have found Dr. Nani and her clinic.

Alive is great, Dr Nani and Jesus were friendly and helpful and the ketamine treatment was profoundly relaxing and revelatory. Highly recommend!!!

Dr. Nani and Jesus are kind and thoughtful in what can be a vulnerable and delicate process. This has been an important tool in improving my mental health and I’m grateful for their care.

I can’t say enough positive things about my experience with ketamine therapy. The process was safe, supportive, and thoughtfully guided from start to finish. Each session helped me let go of the weight I didn’t realize I was still carrying and gave me a renewed sense of clarity and calm. If you’re looking for an effective way to address anxiety, chronic depression, PTSD, or simply feel more grounded and emotionally balanced, I would absolutely recommend this treatment and the incredible team behind it.

I had the most amazing time and experience with Alive IV and their Ketamine Therapy! I Definitely would go again, their setup was so Personable, Quiet, Safe and Spectacular to be honest. LOVED IT ❤️

I was very anxious before starting ketamine treatments, but Dr. Nani and Jesus were incredibly kind and helped put me at ease. They took the time to talk through dosing and made sure I felt comfortable with the plan. I felt immediate relief after my first treatment — it was like the fog of depression finally started to lift. I’m grateful for their care and support.

Hi. I went to see Dr. Nani and Ketamine Therapy Portland because I suffer from a combination of issues that traditional approaches were not helpful with. I have had lifelong issues with complex PTSD (also known as development trauma) that have left me with an ongoing sense of anxiety, hypervigilance and reactivity (in the jargon, the opposite of emotional regulation, dysregulation). This has led to decades of struggling with treatment-resistant depression. I've been on different SSRIs, tried Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and been in therapy on and off for most of my adult life with multiple approaches: DBT, CBT, IFS, SE NARM, the alphabet soup goes on. Some were helpful, but never seemed to get to the core of the problem, that my brain need rewiring. These lifelong issues were compounded by a series of concussions or traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), the most recent in July 2022. this not only made these issues worse, they added ongoing issues of dizziness, low energy, and post-exercise malaise. I could barely work a half day. I saw every doctor I could imagine -- neurologists, cardiologists -- and got physical therapy (PT) by therapists trained in TBIs, almost no progress. When I first saw Dr. Nani, she immediately told me that of course PT wasn't working, my brain was too activated and vigilant to be open to these kinds of therapies. First we had to calm it down, then PT would work. We started on a regimen of IVs, including Phosphatidylcholine, NAD+, and more recently ketamine treatments. I have done four ketamine treatments, and they have changed my life. Initially these were not easy for me, as ketamine takes you on a psychoactive journey that I wasn't comfortable with. (And I had done a lot of drugs many years ago when in college). However Dr. Nani and her team worked with me, created a safe and supportive environment, and held my hand, literally in some moments. I now have more energy, I am 80% better and more to come; energy much better, dizziness infrequent, able to work most of the day. Most importantly, I am much much less anxious, reactive and subject to mood swings and depression. It is like a dark cloud has been lifted that I didn't know was there until it was gone. I am returning to PT this week, and expect it will work this time. Much of this has been out of pocket, and you should know that it isn't cheap. But Dr. Nani has been flexible and respectful of my financial limits and worked with me every step of the way. A constant source of support and frankly, tough love, which I needed. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Nani and her team. Julieta Arredondo, the Nurse Practitioner in the practice is an absolute gem. She is not only extremely competent, but so kind, caring and supportive. If you suffer from concussions, TBIs, PTSD, or anxiety/depression (or like me, all of the above) and traditional approaches haven't worked, you might want to try ketamine therapy with Ketamine Therapy Portland. For me, it has changed my life.

Amazing crew of caring individuals, Julie is fantastic to work with and the entire experience has been wonderful! Looking forward to continuing progress with early trauma and finding resolution!
