Evidence-Based Mental Health Support in Franklin, TN

At Tennessee Ketamine & Wellness Center in Franklin, we understand that mental health challenges are often complex, deeply personal, and not always responsive to traditional treatments. That’s why we focus on advanced, evidence-based care for individuals facing difficult-to-treat mental health conditions.

Our center offers two powerful therapeutic options: IV ketamine therapy and SPRAVATO® (esketamine). Both treatments are administered under careful medical supervision in a comfortable, private setting—designed for safety, effectiveness, and healing. If you or a loved one has struggled with mental health symptoms that haven’t improved with standard medications or talk therapy, you may find new hope.

Our Treatment Approach

We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach to mental health care. We work with individuals who have tried traditional therapies—often without meaningful relief—and are now seeking a different path forward.

We specialize in:

  • IV Ketamine Therapy: A treatment option for conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, and alcohol use disorder. Delivered intravenously in controlled doses, IV ketamine is known for its rapid-acting effects on mood, thought patterns, and pain signaling.
  • SPRAVATO® (Esketamine): This FDA-approved nasal spray is indicated for adults with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) or major depressive disorder (MDD) with suicidal thoughts or behavior. SPRAVATO® must be administered in a certified treatment center like ours and is only available under direct medical supervision.

Whether you’re new to these treatments or have questions about how they work, our clinical team is here to guide you every step of the way—with medical oversight, personalized care plans, and a commitment to your safety and well-being.

Conditions We Treat

Depression

Major depressive disorder and treatment-resistant depression can leave individuals feeling hopeless, emotionally numb, and disconnected from everyday life. Many patients come to us after trying multiple antidepressants or years of therapy with little success. We use IV ketamine and SPRAVATO® to help patients experience meaningful symptom relief—often within days rather than weeks. These treatments work differently from SSRIs, targeting brain chemistry and neural pathways involved in mood regulation and emotional resilience.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

PTSD is more than just a reaction to trauma—it can be a long-term, life-disrupting condition that affects sleep, mood, memory, and the ability to function. Flashbacks, emotional numbness, hypervigilance, and persistent anxiety are common symptoms. Ketamine therapy has shown promising results in helping patients reduce trauma-related distress by enhancing neuroplasticity and interrupting maladaptive thought loops. For those who have not responded to traditional PTSD treatments, ketamine may offer a new direction toward healing.

Anxiety Disorders

Persistent anxiety can take many forms—generalized worry, panic attacks, social avoidance—but the result is often the same: a reduced quality of life. For individuals whose anxiety hasn’t improved with conventional treatments, IV ketamine may provide relief. By acting on glutamate receptors in the brain, ketamine helps calm overactive circuits involved in fear and worry. Many patients report a sense of clarity and relief after just a few sessions, giving them space to re-engage with daily life and long-term goals.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

OCD can create a cycle of intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors that are difficult to control. Standard treatments like SSRIs and CBT can help, but many patients don’t find complete relief. Ketamine has been shown to disrupt the rigid thought patterns at the root of OCD by resetting neural activity and promoting cognitive flexibility. We work closely with patients to evaluate their history, determine candidacy, and deliver infusions that align with their needs and goals.

Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD)

Alcohol dependence is often compounded by emotional pain, depression, or trauma. For patients in recovery or those struggling with chronic relapse, ketamine can be a powerful adjunct to their care plan. Though not a standalone addiction treatment, IV ketamine has been shown to reduce cravings, lift mood, and support neurobiological healing during early recovery. We offer ketamine treatment as part of a comprehensive, medically supervised approach for patients seeking lasting change.

Bipolar Disorder

Bipolar disorder causes intense shifts in mood, energy, and focus—ranging from deep depression to episodes of mania or hypomania. For those who haven’t found relief with traditional medications, ketamine offers a promising alternative. By targeting brain pathways involved in mood regulation, ketamine may help reduce depressive symptoms and promote emotional stability. Our team carefully evaluates each patient to determine if this treatment is a safe and effective option.

A Safe, Supervised Experience

At Tennessee Ketamine & Wellness Center, patient safety is our highest priority. Every treatment—whether IV ketamine or SPRAVATO®—is administered by trained medical professionals in a private room, with continuous monitoring and post-session recovery time.

We perform a thorough medical and psychiatric evaluation before starting any treatment, ensuring that every patient is a good candidate and that any risks are fully understood. You’ll be supported before, during, and after each session with clinical expertise and compassionate care.
