I am currently offering Spravato (esketamine) for Treatment-Resistant Depression: If depression has felt persistent, heavy, or unresponsive — ketamine-based treatment may offer a different path forward. Treatment-resistant depression is defined as depression that hasn’t improved after at least two standard antidepressants, and for many people in this situation, esketamine can be a true game changer. Esketamine works differently than traditional antidepressants and has helped many individuals find relief when other options have failed — often without side effects like weight gain, sexual dysfunction, or emotional blunting.
At Mercury Mental Health, ketamine treatment is provided using Spravato (esketamine) — an FDA-approved, evidence-based form of ketamine that is covered by insurance and administered in-office with medical monitoring. Spravato is now FDA-approved as monotherapy, meaning you do not need to remain on another antidepressant to receive treatment.
I often have next-week availability. I take time to listen deeply, understand your history, and determine whether Spravato (esketamine) treatment is an appropriate and supportive next step. Care is provided in a calm, structured setting with close attention to safety, comfort, and long-term outcomes. I would be honored to support your care.
Take the first step to help. Samuel Isaac Parmenter now

I incorporate psychotherapy into many of my sessions, believing it adds meaningful value and offers a deeper alternative to the rushed, symptom-focused style common in many psychiatry settings. I often draw from DBT skills, which can offer practical tools for relief for distress. I'm also deeply influenced by Carl Jung and regularly draw on his ideas to help patients explore their inner lives.
