Family Psychiatry

Family Psychiatry in Seattle's Fremont neighborhood offers Spravato, an FDA-approved ketamine-based treatment for patients with chronic, treatment-resistant depression who have not responded to traditional medications. Administered in a dedicated Spravato treatment suite, it requires no surgery or anesthesia.

Many patients experience immediate relief of symptoms that continues to improve with ongoing treatment, as ketamine increases BDNF, a protein essential for healthy brain function. Common side effects can include dissociation, blood pressure changes, mild headache, and nausea.

Family Psychiatry provides care for children, teens, and adults across many conditions, including ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder, beginning with a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and individualized treatment plan.
