65. Unpacking Ketamine Therapy with Dr. Sam Zand & Derek Du Chesne

Is Ketamine better than antidepressants? Could ketamine be the future for depression treatment. Research proposes that a combination of treatments serves depression outcomes best, but with only 10-30% of patients prescribed antidepressants experiencing Benefit from their medication, he proposes an alternative. By discovering neuro plastic therapy, he discusses the role of psychedelics treating depression and how it differs from anti depressants and talk therapy. Aclnowledging the importance of professional administration, he speaks to how recreational use can set individuals back and how appropriate guidance can be liberating for depression patients. Finally, he explains psychedelic use after therapy, navigating bad experiences with Ketamine and how to come back, recommendations for those with previous addictions, microdosing Ketamine, and how ketamine could be used as a chronic pain treatment.

He is one of the first doctors to receive clearance to treat his patients using FDA-approved, Spravado-ketamine therapy, along with developing integrative therapy that has truly transformed lives.Dr. Sam Zand is a compassionate psychiatrist, motivational speaker, and socially conscious business developer. He has merged his passions for mental health, performance coaching, and entrepreneurship to establish platforms that build leaders and self-healers in the community.  His passion is helping his clients overcome mental and emotional obstacles towards unlocking their peak potential. While his training is in general psychiatry, addiction recovery, and psychotherapy, his passions are in crisis intervention, peak mental fitness training, relationship counseling, psychedelic therapy, and spiritual growth. Dr. Zand works to help his clients cover all aspects of their mental, emotional, social, and spiritual health. Dr. Zand has worked with industry leaders, corporate executives, professional athletes, and everyday hardworking citizens.
