KAP treatment consists of 2 main parts: medical treatment and psychotherapy. At Journey Clinical, we practice a collaborative care model in which licensed mental health professionals in our network take on the psychotherapy, while Journey Clinical’s in-house medical team supports patients on all medical aspects (patient eligibility, prescriptions and monitoring clinical outcomes).

Presented this poster at the AMERICAN REHABILITATION COUNSELING ASSOCIATION pre-conference symposium in April 2024. Exploring the challenges of fatigue in employment for individuals with #multiplesclerosis (MS), this poster focuses on the experiences of individuals with #MS by utilizing quotes from qualitative studies. Fatigue is the most challenging, ubiquitous, and misunderstood symptom that individuals with MS face regularly. It's difficult to describe and fluctuates on a spectrum. It is paramount that counselors and employers understand its implications and how it feels for these individuals.

An Official Statement from TARA Mind Chief Medical Officer Richard Nockowitz, M.D. “Simply put, TARA Mind has created the most responsible and affordable access to the safest and most personalized delivery of IV Ketamine-Assisted Therapy (KAT) available for individuals whose mental health conditions do not improve with traditional treatments. Recently, there’s been inaccurate information circulating about IV-Ketamine Assisted Therapy,  creating misperceptions about the safety and benefit of this treatment when delivered responsibly. In fact, decades of real-world experience with thousands of patients treated at the most prestigious academic medical centers and treatment facilities has shown that this therapy is extraordinarily safe, life-changing, and even life-saving. Like any other medical treatment, IV Ketamine-Assisted Therapy should always be delivered in a monitored medical setting by trained, licensed clinicians. When done this way, it is unquestionably safer and more effective for depression, suicidality, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and even substance use disorders, than other currently available treatments. We have a collective responsibility to differentiate between the medically-supervised administration of this highly beneficial treatment and its unfortunate misuse without responsible medical supervision.” #TARAMind #MentalHealth #MentalHealthMatters #HR #WorkplaceWellness

I am incredibly proud to be part of a team that has not only innovated but truly redefined how Ketamine-Assisted Therapy (KAT) is delivered. At TARA Mind, our clinical team has drawn on decades of experience to build a program that prioritizes safety, efficacy, and seamless care delivery for clients facing complex conditions like TRD. What stands out most is how we’ve woven clinical excellence with cutting-edge technology, allowing us to offer the most comprehensive and collaborative IV KAT program available today. It's been an honor to contribute to a model of care that raises the bar for safe and effective treatment while supporting meaningful outcomes for clients. Truly this design is so elegant, while also being profoundly personalized to ensure very best care for clients and an easeful administrative lift for therapists and prescribers alike. Grateful to be part of this incredible journey, ensuring that those in need of advanced mental health care receive not just treatment, but the highest level of support and expertise available. #KetamineTherapy #MentalHealthInnovation #TreatmentResistantDepression #TRDCare #KetamineAssistedTherapy #InnovativeCare #MentalHealthSolutions #Psychotherapy #ClinicalExcellence #MentalHealthSupport #TARAMind #AdvancedMentalHealth #CollaborativeCare #SafeTherapy #CuttingEdgeTherapy #EmployeeWellbeing #WorkplaceMentalHealth #HRSolutions #CorporateWellness #EmployeeSupport #MentalHealthInTheWorkplace #HRInnovation #ConsultantLife #WorkplaceHealth #EmployerBenefits #HRConsulting #ConsultingServices #HumanResources #EmployeeCare #EmployerSolutions

From the outside, it may appear that clinicians approach patients from very different directions. This can be the case even when the clinicians have similar educational pathways. Some know a list of exercises and try to fit the patient onto those exercises. Some will learn exercise programs as they relate to specific diagnoses, and then have difficulty creating programs for the different clinical presentations of that diagnosis. Worse yet, they may be lost when presented with a different diagnosis that they are not familiar. We all can suffer from being locked into our own reality in which patients are forced to fit into our practice comfort zone. To avoid some of these mental traps, one must be able to think beyond his or her reality to perform at the highest level of achievement. Which type of clinician you are Rigid one(one-size-fits-all), Confused or Sorted?

We had a really good book group discussion yesterday about ‘The Myth of Normal’ by Gabor Maté. Huge thanks to Andy Hill @behypnotherapy for hosting it. We began by sharing our one-word reactions to the book which included: ‘unsettling’, ‘revealing’, ‘profound’ and ‘important’. Following our usual format, we discussed what we liked/disliked about the book, implications for clinical practice and for self-care as therapists. We agreed that there were a lot of messages to take from the book both, in client work and personal life. As therapists, it encourages a heightened sensitivity and a compassionate trauma-informed perspective. As parents we all felt it was an important read. For self-care, the book is a reminder of how we all function as ‘shock-absorbers’ to each other in daily life and the value of noticing and responding to our own needs when feeling depleted. You can read our book review on my blog: https://lnkd.in/d43yDuBR Do share your thoughts.

This TEDMED talk given by Pediatrician Nadine Burke Harris is worth a listen. She's talking about a clinical practice; however, this conversation around "The Adverse Childhood Experiences Study" (ACES) could change how you begin to get to know and support children, teenagers (and families) in the places where you serve. Exposure to early adversity impacts so much in human development. Listen in to educate yourself / your team / your family. Grow in compassion for folks who have real neurologic reasons for behaviors and health challenges. Do you know the ACE scores of the kids/ teenagers in your ministry? How do you get to know their story? Is there a plan to help them find treatments and support? What reference tools do you use to support parents and educated them about toxic stress and the impact of ACES? I would love to know what has been helpful or worked well for you. https://lnkd.in/e6f2A6py
