Breaking Barriers in Mental Health Care
Imagine a world where mental health care is not confined to traditional norms. Numinus dares to challenge the status quo, offering a revolutionary approach that combines the latest evidence-based advancements in psychedelic medicine with traditional care. It’s a world where healing knows no bounds, and the possibilities are endless.
According to Numinus’ Chief Clinical Officer, Reid Robison, MD, “[Psychedelic] medicines really can be therapy accelerators, jumpstarting the process of healing, recovery, and growth.”
Numinus stands at the forefront of the mental health psychedelic revolution. The array of personalized services includes diagnostic evaluations, psychiatric medication management, a wide range individual and group ketamine-assisted therapy, and use of Spravato® treatment.
Dr. Robison explains that ketamine, once used solely as an anesthetic, now has the potential to alter states of consciousness for therapeutic gains, offering hope to those battling depression, anxiety, addiction, and PTSD.
Dr. Robison emphasizes, “What differentiates us is being both a full-service holistic mental health clinic network that also has these cutting-edge modalities such as ketamine, Spravato®, TMS and psychedelic clinical trials.”

Exciting Developments
Recently, there was a momentous occasion in the world of mental health as a Phase III MDMA study for PTSD was unveiled. The study found that on average, over 70% of participants who received MDMA-assisted therapy no longer met criteria for PTSD by the end of the study. This groundbreaking news is a crucial step towards gaining FDA approval.
Although MDMA, LSD, and psilocybin treatments are not available to the public, Numinus has a research and clinical trial division, where clients may be able to participate in trials.
Unlocking the Power of Ketamine
Early in his career, Dr. Robison, worked as a psychiatrist on faculty at the University of Utah. Approximately 14 years ago, after completing his training, he began conducting clinical research trials with a mission to discover new and improved treatment modalities. His motivation stemmed from dissatisfaction with the existing options and a deep concern for the many patients who continued to struggle with mental health conditions despite undergoing multiple courses of medication-based treatments.
During his early days leading clinical trials, Dr. Robison conducted a ketamine study aimed at treating severe depression. As he sat with participants during their ketamine experiences, he noticed a remarkable pattern- not only did he see an overwhelmingly positive response to the treatment, but ketamine also brought about an altered state of consciousness where clients often gain perspective and insight related to their struggle.
It became evident to him that ketamine wasn’t just a medicine, but an important tool to enable faster and deeper healing. To this day, Dr. Robison continues to see the benefits of ketamine and has found that, when combined with therapy, it can be a game-changer in the mental health arena. At Numinus, medicines like ketamine are part of a broader treatment plan, tailored to the unique needs of each client and often used alongside other forms of care.

A Comprehensive Approach to Care
Dr. Robison explains, “across Numinus clinics in Utah, we conduct over 75,000 clinic visits in a single year.” He elaborates, “20 to 25% of those visits include ketamine or Spravato® treatments.” The remainder encompasses a diverse spectrum of mental health services aimed at a variety of conditions.
Additionally, Numinus offers innovative treatments beyond psychedelics, such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). TMS is an FDA-approved non-medication treatment option that uses gentle magnetic pulses to stimulate specific areas of the brain known to be underactive in those diagnosed with depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and other related conditions.

When delivered intravenously or as a lozenge, ketamine is used “off label” meaning that the FDA has not approved its use to treat mental health conditions. Spravato® is approved for treatment resistant depression.
Important Medication Information: Common side of ketamine effects include dizziness, nausea and vomiting. Ketamine raises heart rate and blood pressure, which can increase the risk of stroke or heart attack.
