No tree can grow to heaven unless its roots reach down to hell.

CARL JUNG Said

Your symptoms need relief. They are also a sacred call from within toward the fuller development of the personality and spirit.

At Acheron, we help you to find healing and to optimize peak wellness for yourself, your loved ones, and culture as a whole.

 

From conventional to cutting-edge

Our Philosophy

Trauma is an inevitable feature of life. Conventional society asks us to hide, ignore, work around, or “merely cope” with the mental symptoms that result from individual and collective woundings.

The field of psychiatry itself has been increasingly shaped by this harmful attitude. Too focused on symptom management, its mission has narrowed and faltered.

That is why psychiatry, in Acheron’s view, had to be reborn.

 
 

We are proud to experience deep meaning and joy with our patients in the complexity, difficulty and discovery of the healing process.

It is a joyful duty and also a sacred one, in the service of healing and developing the spirit of the person and of culture itself.

The specific services we offer are all targeted toward optimizing the healing and developmental clinical journey in ways that are unique to a psychiatry reborn, and re-centered on its true mission.

MEDICATION MANAGEMENT

Conventional medications may relieve mental symptoms but so can integrative approaches. We value a flexibility that caters to patient autonomy and choice.

PSYCHEDELIC MEDICINE

Psychedelic medicine (e.g., ketamine treatment) is a recent exciting development that has helped psychiatry recover its roots – beyond symptom management and in the service of insight and self-integration.

PSYCHOTHERAPY

Individual and group programs, acknowledging the fact that we can manifest symptoms and seek unconscious truths as both individuals and in collectives, with both therapy contexts offering distinct benefits for treatment.
