Ketamine Therapy clinics in California

Searching for a ketamine clinic in California turns up supply concentrated in a few metro regions rather than spread evenly across the state. The Los Angeles area and the greater Bay Area carry most of California's ketamine therapy capacity, with San Diego and Sacramento adding further options. The Central Valley, the far north, and much of the Inland Empire have comparatively little, so someone outside these population centers should expect to travel, sometimes considerably, to reach an established provider.

California has no ketamine-specific licensing statute beyond the general rules already governing controlled substances. A physician or a supervised physician assistant typically orders and oversees treatment, and a registered nurse or nurse practitioner may administer it as part of that medical team. Treatment is usually delivered in a physician's office or a dedicated infusion suite with monitoring equipment, rather than a purely wellness setting, though wellness-branded locations do exist. Scope of practice for nurse practitioners varies with their supervision agreement, so confirm who is actually present during your session.

To verify a provider, check physicians and physician assistants through the Medical Board of California or, for osteopathic physicians, the Osteopathic Medical Board of California. Check nurses and nurse practitioners through the California Board of Registered Nursing. A clean license record shows someone is permitted to practice; it does not establish ketamine-specific experience or predict how you will respond to treatment.

Before booking, ask who evaluates you, who is present and supervising during the infusion, what is being administered and where it is sourced, and how risks are disclosed in writing. Ask what happens if treatment does not help, and request an itemized quote covering evaluation, medication, monitoring, and any included therapy or follow-up.

This listing's order is not for sale. Featured slots are labeled and limited in number, Verified means a clinic has completed credential checks rather than paid for placement, and browsing Regenerated.com costs patients nothing. Appearing in this directory is not an endorsement of any listed clinic.

The national ketamine therapy hub covers the mechanism and the evidence behind IV ketamine and nasal esketamine in more depth. For more on how to read a listing like this one, see How to read a Regenerated city hub and Featured vs Verified vs organic.

Regulatory context

A note on California's ketamine therapy rules.

Ketamine is a DEA Schedule III controlled substance, FDA-approved as a dissociative anesthetic and used off-label for treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, and chronic pain. The FDA approved esketamine (Spravato) in 2019 for treatment-resistant depression under a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) program that requires in-office administration at certified sites. MDMA-assisted therapy remains Schedule I; the FDA issued a Complete Response Letter in August 2024 to Lykos Therapeutics on its MDMA new drug application. Psilocybin is Schedule I and holds FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation through sponsors such as Compass Pathways and Usona, but has not received FDA approval. Oregon Measure 109 (passed 2020, operational 2023) created a state psilocybin service center framework, and Colorado Proposition 122 (2022) authorized regulated healing centers.

  • SB 803 (2023, vetoed) and SB 1012 (2024, stalled)
    Proposed regulated therapeutic access to psilocybin, MDMA, mescaline, and DMT; Governor Newsom vetoed SB 58 (2023) citing lack of treatment guidelines.
  • Local decriminalization resolutions
    Oakland (2019), Santa Cruz (2020), Arcata, San Francisco, and Berkeley have passed non-binding resolutions deprioritizing enforcement of natural psychedelics; no legal therapeutic framework.

California enforces federal DEA scheduling. The Medical Board of California investigates prescriber misconduct, including ketamine diversion and inadequate patient monitoring. Several high-profile California ketamine-related deaths (including Matthew Perry's 2023 overdose) have intensified board scrutiny of clinic practices. DEA enforcement targets compounding, diversion, and Ryan Haight Act telehealth compliance.

Ketamine Therapy in , answered.

Most ketamine therapy clinics in California cluster around Los Angeles and the greater Bay Area, with additional options in San Diego and Sacramento. Coverage thins out considerably in the Central Valley, the far north, and many inland counties. If you live outside a major metro, call ahead about evaluation requirements, session length, and recovery arrangements, since you may need to plan a longer trip and a ride home than you would closer to one of these hubs.

Ketamine therapy generally refers to administering ketamine, by IV infusion, intramuscular injection, or as nasal esketamine, at sub-anesthetic doses to treat depression and, less commonly, other conditions. It appears to act on different brain pathways than standard antidepressants, which is why it is sometimes considered when other treatments have not helped. The formulation, dosing schedule, and whether psychotherapy is included vary by provider, so ask what is actually planned for you.

Short-term effects can include dissociation, elevated blood pressure, nausea, and disorientation during and shortly after a session, which is why monitored recovery time and a driver are standard parts of care. Risk is generally managed through screening, dosing, and supervision rather than eliminated. Ask your provider how they monitor vital signs during treatment, who is present, and what their plan is if you have an unexpected reaction.

Candidacy depends on diagnosis, treatment history, and medical factors such as cardiovascular health, substance use history, and certain psychiatric conditions that a prescriber needs to screen for directly. People with uncontrolled high blood pressure, certain heart conditions, or active psychosis are often told to wait or pursue other options. A thorough evaluation, not a general statewide rule, is what actually determines whether ketamine therapy is appropriate for you.

Ketamine itself is a controlled substance, and licensed physicians and physician assistants working under physician supervision may prescribe and oversee its use, with nurses or nurse practitioners often administering it as part of that team. California does not add a ketamine-specific rule on top of these general professional and controlled-substance requirements. Confirm who is supervising your specific treatment rather than assuming any one setting automatically meets this standard.

Physicians and physician assistants can be checked through the Medical Board of California or the Osteopathic Medical Board of California, and nurses or nurse practitioners through the California Board of Registered Nursing. These lookups confirm license status and show public disciplinary history. They will not tell you how experienced someone is with ketamine specifically, so pair that check with direct questions about training and supervision.

Coverage depends heavily on the formulation: IV ketamine for depression is commonly billed as cash pay, while nasal esketamine may be covered when a plan's specific criteria are met. Ask your insurer directly about authorization and network status, and ask any clinic for an itemized quote covering evaluation, medication, monitoring, and follow-up. This page does not publish average costs because arrangements vary too widely across providers to represent fairly.

This page covers supply and rules across the whole state rather than one metro's neighborhoods, while a city page addresses local geography in more detail and the national hub covers the treatment's mechanism and evidence generally. Unlike an open web search, listing order here is not sold, Featured placement is labeled and capped, and Verified reflects credential checks rather than advertising spend.
