When I first heard of the treatment, I thought it was just another Hollywood fad, but I’ve been dealing with my trauma for more than 20 years. I got to a point where I didn’t have the choice but to try it. Being a man who is skeptical of alternative healing, I researched every, and I mean every, clinic in the Los Angeles area who provides ketamine treatments. Dr Harris and Neurorelief were clearly better than the rest. Dr. Harris isn’t trying to sell you a miracle cure or spend his time with you trying to get you to purchase upgrades. There are no gimmicky take home kits or vitamin supplements. It is a small clinic with mighty empathy for the patient. Each staff member who I worked with during the infusions was hand chosen for my comfort. Their only goal was my safety and comfort. They paired me with a coach and set me up with app that tracked my process and gave me tools to help my brain as it’s underwent a physical and emotional transformation. The rooms are clean. The office is safe. The people are kind. I underwent the six infusions over 12 days. When I walked into the office I was a man who couldn’t function. My anxiety and depression was at an all time high and I was losing hours of my life to worry and fatigue. After the six sessions, the voices in my head that were telling me how worthless of a human I am are completely gone. Dr. Harris claims over and over that this isn’t a silver bullet or miracle cure. But man does it feel like it is. If you decide that you want to go through the ketamine treatment don’t go anywhere else but NeuroRelief. They are a one of a kind clinic who puts the patients and their health first. They will fight with your insurance companies to help you get reimbursed, and they are a perfect place to go if you are a soldier, first responder, or person suffering with PTSD. Dr Harris did something I never thought possible. He gave me back my life. He can give you yours back, too. read less

I would have said it is too good to be true but it’s not. This is a real outcome that has overcome many challenges of a lifetime giving me a fresh new day and a second spring in life. I also wish to extend my gratitude and thanks to the entire treatment team. They are the consummate professionals. There was no end to their kindness, empathy and patience. read less

I thought something was wrong with me because medications seem to bring others relief but I continued to struggle. Turns out I’ve had treatment-resistant depression this whole time, and that meds were never gonna help me! After realizing this, and while in a state of crisis, NeuroRelief offered to start me on the ketamine treatment protocol within the next couple of days – excellent scheduling and availability! Dr. Harris is among the few treatment providers I’ve ever worked with who made me feel immediately cared for. Emma, Natalie, and Cassie (staff) made me feel equally welcome and comfortable with no judgment or sense that they thought something was “wrong” with me. NeuroRelief understands that just living, just having the human experience of existence, is challenging! Alexis, my integration coach, has offered me such wisdom and support throughout the process, and she’s helped me understand how to use my “ketamine insights” in my everyday life. After the two week protocol, not only do I feel immensely better, but I’ve had what I would consider a spiritual awakening (I would have cringed before to say that, but here we are!). I live my life with so much less shame now, and I feel present in my body and in the present moment in a way I’ve never had before. I feel joy and lightness now, as well as a renewed dedication to my own journey and process. Thank you Dr. Harris and all at NeuroRelief for changing the trajectory of my life!!! read less

I had severe depression and PTSD for years, and had reached a point that medication and therapy was still not enough to help me. Dr. Harris had me in after a thoughtful phone consult by the next day to start my six treatments. I didn’t know what to expect but I didn’t get my hopes up for fear of being disappointed in a time I was already hopeless. But after just one day, I began to feel things. The day after my first session, the sun hit my face and I realized it felt good. I could FEEL things again and had gotten so used to being disconnected and numb, I had not even realized what I had lost. Not only did my mood increase, my anxiety lessened, I felt more present and less dissociated, and my chronically cold hands and feet are now warm again – I’m no longer locked into fight or flight, after years of being so. My treatments consisted of an hour session with around a couple hours each time of unpacking and discussion afterward. Dr. Harris is reassuring, encouraging, and attentive, as well as easy to talk to. I initially felt nervous about the idea of essentially confronting my demons, and while scary to do at first, learning to let go and enjoy the session only got easier. I am only two days post treatment completion, but if only half of this current relief from treatment sticks, I’ll be more than satisfied. It’s truly transformative and Dr. Harris is truly doing something magical here. Update: A year and a half later I still have some lasting effects, most notably a diminished ego response and other PTSD symptoms. Depression comes and goes but it definitely helped with unresolved trauma. read less

It was so fortunate to find Dr. Harris’ clinic, NeuroRelief, for my wife’s chronic pain. She has central sensitization disorder paired with Sjögren’s syndrome, making her life miserable most days. The ketamine pain infusions administered at NeuroRelief gave her back mobility and a life she thought she’d lost. We cannot thank Dr. Harris and his staff enough! They are excellent in every way, and always made us feel comfortable and welcomed. I highly recommend NeuroRelief for chronic pain and so much more. read less

(I was still going through a lot around that time & a lot of things in my life slipped through the cracks). However, I actually feel like now is a better time to write this because it just becomes more and more apparent as time passes how much Dr. Harris has helped me! I was suffering from anxiety and severe depression. Nothing seemed to be helping me and I was in a very bad place mentally. My psychiatrist suggested looking into ketamine therapy and I chose Dr. Harris because of his personalized approach to each individual, which I felt I needed. It was an excellent choice. Dr. Harris is extremely knowledgeable and showed great compassion, empathy, kindness and understanding. I knew I was in good hands. I got 8 infusions during the Fall of 2020. It was the perfect amount for me. After that I started to feel better. It’s funny; when you’re so used to things not really helping or only being temporary, you tend to keep waiting for the other shoe to drop because it usually does. Well, finally it didn’t! Over time, I really started to notice more and more just how effective this was for me. It’s now been over 2 years and I am still getting better and better. I have never sunk to anywhere near the depths of depression that I did before my treatment with Dr. Harris. In fact, I’m pretty hopeful and dare I say happy most of the time and I’m able to experience many more of life’s pleasures than its pain, which was what he actually said would happen. He was right. I actually assumed that I was probably going to need non-IV ketamine therapy “tuneups” along the way just to keep me level but I have not even needed that! I don’t think I could ever have imagined a world where I could go 2 whole years without suffering a major depressive episode but so far, so good. Things just feel so much more manageable now and I know for certain that the ketamine therapy I received from Dr. Harris helped my depression better than anything else ever has! Thank you, Dr. Harris! read less
