Our Approach
At the Drake Center, we provide Ketamine assisted therapy in a private, comfortable and safe setting designed to enhance your healing journey.
We take a unique and individualized approach to your personal journey of healing.
We’ll take you on a journey toward purpose, meaning, and fulfillment in life. Our approach is to reflect inward and for you to emerge with renewed perspective and emotional fulfillment.
We believe in guided psycho-emotional exploration to make certain you’re getting the complete care you need for your mind and body.
We are there for you, to guide and assist you during all stages of your transformation. Our integration process combines ketamine with traditional talk therapy, meditation, creativity and immersive therapies.
The Way of Butterfly
The Way of the Butterfly is a beautiful paradigm of transformative healing that's built on connecting with love and being contained in that love. Our integrated approach to healing is the transformative journey of the butterfly.
It begins with asking for help and finding a way to reconnect with love.
The caterpillar enters the chrysalis and then emerges as a new and beautiful creature and for us that chrysalis is that container of unconditional love. We spin that around ourselves and our patients through ketamine through mindfulness through meditation and through creative work.
Just as the caterpillar dissolves into nothingness and still maintains its essence and comes out as something brand new and beautiful, so do our patients.
When someone enters our integrated approach, The Way of the Butterfly, the individual goes from chrysalis to soaring. Our patients soar like a butterfly emerging from chrysalis and their time in their chrysalis is customized and includes a psychedelic experience, mindfulness meditation, spiritual work, being creative and getting up and moving the body which allow our patients to feel alive in the moment.
Our six-step process for your transformation.
