Dr. Melissa Welby operates a psychiatric practice on Cherry Street in Milford, providing medication management and psychiatric evaluations for adults. The practice focuses on general outpatient psychiatry rather than specialized procedural treatments like TMS or ketamine therapy. Patients seeking those interventions would need referrals to facilities equipped for neuromodulation or infusion protocols.
IM ketamine infusions are administered at Ketamine Center of Connecticut for adults with treatment-resistant depression and chronic pain conditions. The clinic, located on Boston Post Road in Milford, operates as a specialized outpatient facility where treatments are delivered under medical supervision. Sessions typically involve monitored infusions in a clinical setting, with protocols tailored to psychiatric or pain management indications. Patients should verify insurance coverage directly, as ketamine for depression remains an off-label use.
Dr. Lisa Harding operates a psychiatric practice on Wheelers Farm Road in Milford, providing medication management and diagnostic evaluations for adults with mood and anxiety disorders. The practice focuses on general psychiatric care rather than specialized procedural treatments like TMS or ketamine therapy. Patients seeking those modalities may need referrals to facilities offering neurostimulation or infusion-based protocols.
Tides of Mind Counseling operates an outpatient mental health practice in Milford, located on Boston Post Road. The clinic provides counseling services for adults dealing with mood and anxiety concerns. Specific treatment modalities such as TMS, esketamine, or ketamine therapy are not detailed in available information; prospective patients should inquire directly about available interventions beyond traditional talk therapy and psychiatric evaluation.
Ketamine therapy is the broader category of clinical ketamine use for mental health conditions including treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, and chronic suicidal ideation. Unlike Spravato (which is the FDA-approved esketamine nasal spray), most ketamine therapy is provided off-label using racemic ketamine — typically through IV infusion, intramuscular injection, or sublingual lozenges.
Treatment is administered in a clinical setting with continuous medical supervision. A typical IV protocol involves six infusions over two to three weeks, with each infusion lasting 40 to 60 minutes. Patients are monitored throughout for blood pressure changes, dissociative effects, and emotional response. Many clinics provide a calm, dimly lit room with eye masks and music to support a contemplative experience during dosing.
Ketamine acts on the brain's NMDA receptors and glutamate system, which is fundamentally different from how SSRIs and other traditional antidepressants work. Many patients report significant improvement within hours to days of their first session — among the fastest-acting antidepressant effects in clinical use.
Because most ketamine therapy is off-label, insurance coverage is limited and most patients pay out of pocket. Clinics in our directory range from anesthesiology-led infusion centers to integrated psychiatric practices offering ketamine alongside therapy.
