Episode 684: Managing Anxiety with Ketamine Therapy: A Roundtable Conversation with Kristin Arden and Stephanie Trunzo

This week, we’re talking all about anxiety, ketamine therapy, and how this treatment is helping high-functioning women finally feel emotional relief. You don’t need to stay in a perpetual state of anxiety - there are resources out there that can truly help. In addition to therapy and other healing modalities, ketamine therapy has been a game-changer for me in managing anxiety. So I invited Dr. Kristin Arden from Mindbloom and Stephanie Trunzo the CEO of MERGE for a roundtable discussion on what ketamine therapy really is, how it works in the brain, and why it’s worth considering; especially if you’re a high-functioning woman navigating anxiety and overwhelm. We dig into what actually happens during treatment, the emotional rewiring that takes place, and how to know when it's working. If you’ve tried everything and still feel stuck, I hope this conversation opens the door to a new kind of healing.
