I absolutely love Better U!!!! I have been struggling with anxiety and depression my entire life AND have been medicated for over 20 years for it all!!! I continue to take my medications HOWEVER since starting ketamine treatments I have been in my best headspace ever!!! The team is so supportive and REAL. They aren’t pushy and genuinely care for their patients!!! The self-work they provide is next level and SURPRISE it only helps if you actually use it. The price is MUCH more affordable than any in-person clinics AND I find that the entire experience is more pleasant being able to do them at home.

Alternative healing with Ketamine
Having investigated many methodologies for self healing from PTSD, depression, anxiety, and a few others, the potency of this course of treatment requires a very open mind to let it work for you. For that reason, I was very grateful to connect with Taylor, Josh, and Cathy, all strategically positioned mentors and counselors that made the transition from normal and not feeling very well, to having a renew sense of understanding. The quality and quantity of the service and care that is provided during the treatment, alleviate a lot of the fear of the unknown. We are talking about psychedelics, which are well regarded as Shortcuts towards enlightenment, clarity, and emotional wellness. If I was to be asked in the street, what do you think about this course of treatment with Ketamine? I would answer you either trust yourself. Trust staff administering the medication, trust the wisdom of the universe and having given me the opportunity to enter into this mystery of healing. I speak a great length to folks about how this medication has helped me. A lot of them just bulk at the cost, but I remind them, as many of them have been in the desert during the wars in the Middle East that if they were thirsty, and there was only one bottle of water to be had, one would pay anything to quench the thirst. Final thought, what you know about the world, holding onto the rudder of the ketamine treatments, and you will find out next to sure there is the most turbulence, and out to see, his smooth sailing. This is the best way I can explain how this process worked for me in the last eight months, the medication delivery, the integration meetings that are available they do provide coverage for the novice, as well as sitting space with individuals further down the road into the treatment. Trust yourself, take a leap, and put some time aside to research both your light, and your shadow side. All in all, the package of medication, counseling, advising, and steering provided far exceeded in their usefulness, the cost of the course of treatment. I have been around a lot of alternative, healing, methodologies, and honestly, this is no joke. I was broke. I started taking the medication, and now I have been changed and continue to grow. Take a chance, as it may just change your life.

My experience with Better U rates rates with a galaxy of stars (much more than 5!)
My experience with Better U rates with a galaxy of stars (many more than five!) After decades of living with PTSD, and trying so many healing paths, this program continues to bring the biggest shift in symptoms and tangible access to peace. After a few sessions, instead of looking for what's wrong in life, my perspective flipped to being in awe and humbled with gratitude. And now, instead of often waking in a cold sweat, I'm creating again, making plans and following through on difficult things I've avoided. Everyone I've interacted with at Better U is incredibly compassionate and knowledgeable. Their support, and all the resources provided (detailed programs, playlists, insights, book recommendations) make all the difference in being able to step into the unknown. I've learned how to trust (and enjoy!) the mystery of being alive, more able to flow with the ups/downs. It's hard to find adequate words to express the blessing of this healing. I highly recommend😊

Well….. let me tell you!!
Well….. let me tell you!!! I am so glad I tried this treatment. Nothing else was working for me. So I reached out to Better U! From the initial contact to everything in between I have had nothing but excellent service and response to my questions in a timely fashion! When I need them they are there! I have been working with Michael and he is a fantastic, empathetic listener and explains some of the stuff I have come across to help me better understand. I would highly recommend Better U. I’m not quite finished with my treatments but can already see a difference. YAY ME!

My experience with ketamine therapy
I am utterly thrilled about the treatment I have received from Better U!! My depression has lifted, my anxiety has waned, and it is like taking the best vacation I have ever been on for a few hours. Afterwards I felt great, no crash or depression that i have experienced w/ other meds. I felt fantastic after the first dose and from that point forward. I still feel great! I highly recommend this treatment for those people out there who have tried everything and been resistant to normal avenues of treatment. I would also recommend it to those who are just now looking to medicine to help them, because why not just jump to what works right from the start? I am so thankful for Better U and for all the people involved!
