Licensed in Tennessee and Virginia, serving patients in Kingsport, Bristol, and surrounding communities.
If you’ve tried antidepressants or therapy but still feel stuck, there’s a new option for relief. Spravato® (Esketamine) is an FDA-approved treatment for adults living with treatment-resistant depression (TRD).
At Open Minds, we provide Spravato® in a calm, supportive environment, guided by licensed professionals serving Tennessee and Virginia. You’ll receive personalized care every step of the way — safely, compassionately, and with hope.
How Spravato® (Esketamine) Works
Spravato® (Esketamine) contains esketamine, a medication that works differently from standard antidepressants. Instead of focusing on serotonin or dopamine, it acts on glutamate receptors in the brain — helping rebuild connections that affect mood, energy, and motivation.
Unlike most antidepressants that take weeks to work, many patients feel improvement within days. Spravato® (Esketamine) is administered as a nasal spray, under the care of your provider, in a quiet and peaceful treatment room.
Who Can Benefit from Spravato® (esketamine)
Spravato® (Esketamine) may help if you:
- Have treatment-resistant depression (TRD)
- Have tried multiple antidepressants with limited results
- Continue to feel hopeless, numb, or unmotivated
- Want a safe, guided option beyond traditional medication
Your provider will discuss whether Spravato® (Esketamine) fits your needs and if it can be combined with your current therapy or prescriptions.
