Product Description

Known For: Cincinnati’s psychology-led ketamine practice combining IV infusions with ketamine-assisted CBT and genomic testing — reporting a near 78% response rate. Distinguished by transparent pricing and a multi-modal approach (ketamine + TMS + genomic-guided medication).

HealingMaps Take: The Anxiety Center stands out in Cincinnati’s ketamine landscape because it approaches treatment from a psychology-first perspective rather than a medical-first one. Founded by Nathan Fite, PsyD — a clinical psychologist, not a psychiatrist or anesthesiologist — the practice pairs IV ketamine infusions with ketamine-assisted cognitive behavioral therapy. This is a meaningful distinction: most infusion clinics administer the medicine and send patients home; TAC uses the neuroplasticity window that ketamine opens to actively restructure thought patterns through CBT. Their reported 78% response rate is above the national average cited in research literature, and the transparent pricing ($450 per single infusion, $2,574 for a 6-series, or $375 per infusion in a 10-series) is refreshingly clear. The addition of GeneSight pharmacogenomic testing helps identify which patients are genuinely treatment-resistant versus simply on the wrong medication — a diagnostic step that many ketamine clinics skip. BrainsWay Deep TMS provides another non-pharmaceutical option for patients who respond partially to ketamine. Insurance acceptance through Aetna, Anthem, Cigna, OPTUM, and Tricare further reduces barriers. With locations also in Indianapolis and Dayton, TAC has regional scale without losing its clinical sophistication.

Patient Review

“The combination of ketamine infusions with CBT at The Anxiety Center was exactly what I needed. The ketamine opened a window and the therapy helped me build new patterns of thinking during that window. The transparent pricing and insurance acceptance made it financially manageable for the first time.”

$450 per infusion is mid-range but still significant out-of-pocket. Montgomery Road location north of downtown. Psychologist-led rather than psychiatrist-led — some patients prefer MD oversight.
