HealingMaps Take: The Haines clinic is the therapy-first arm of the Ketwell network, and one of the only KAP programs anywhere in Southeast Alaska: IM ketamine dosing inside psychotherapy sessions that run 1.5 to 2 hours, delivered personally by founder Jennifer Talley, PMHNP, and tailored to the individual rather than run on a fixed protocol. The insurance math is unusually workable — evaluations, psychotherapy, and integration sessions bill to insurance, with only the ketamine administration itself self-pay — and Talley conducts evaluations statewide by telehealth, so treatment can start before a patient ever travels to Haines. The practice actively discourages ketamine without a therapy relationship, and that philosophy shapes everything here.
Market Position: Ketwell Haines occupies the KAP slot in the Alaska market — the network’s therapy-integrated IM program, differentiated by founder-delivered sessions, insurance-billed therapy components, and statewide telehealth evaluations no other Alaska ketamine practice matches.
Is Ketwell Right for You?
✓ Choose Ketwell if:
- You want ketamine within psychotherapy — 1.5-to-2-hour KAP sessions, not standalone infusions
- You want the therapy and evaluation portions billed to insurance
- You’re anywhere in Alaska — evaluations run statewide via telehealth
- You’re in Haines, Skagway, Juneau, or the Lynn Canal corridor
- You value care delivered personally by the practice founder
✗ Look elsewhere if:
- You want IV ketamine infusions — those run at Ketwell’s Anchorage and Fairbanks clinics
- You want ketamine without a therapy component — the practice discourages that approach
- You’re seeking Spravato (esketamine) — not offered at Ketwell

Patient Review
“My evaluation happened over telehealth from Juneau before I ever made the ferry trip. The sessions are long enough to actually work through what comes up, and having the therapy billed to insurance made the whole thing possible on a Southeast income.”
About Ketwell

The program pairs intramuscular ketamine dosing with psychotherapy in sessions running 1.5 to 2 hours, tailored to each patient rather than a fixed series.

New patients start with a $300 initial evaluation, billable to insurance. Two-hour KAP sessions run $500; evaluations, psychotherapy, and integration sessions bill to insurance, while the ketamine administration itself is self-pay.
