“Psychedelic-assisted therapy has been a literal lifesaver and a game-changer for our family.”
G.H., Patient's Mother
“I haven't felt this well in almost twenty years. Thank you so much, I can't wait for my next appointment!"
R.F., Patient
"We had a consultation with Ben, he was amazing. He instilled trust very quickly, with a 'no pressure' demeanor and very gentle manner as he walked us through the process."
K.H, Patient
"We were highly skeptical, having tried everything for our daughter over the past ten years... by the 6th treatment she was back to being the fierce, funny, happy, brilliant young woman she used to be."

Our Approach
At Advanced Practice Providers, we are committed to helping individuals overcome their mental health challenges and achieve their full potential. Our team of Mental Health Practitioners work with you to stabilize your mental health, heal from past traumas, optimize your cognitive and emotional functioning, and thrive in all aspects of life. We believe in a holistic approach that considers all aspects of your life, including your relationships, work, and personal goals.
Prices
We are the most highly-trained, extensively experienced, and least expensive psychedelic-assisted psychiatry practice in Kentucky. We have an evidence-based therapeutic approach which reliably produces much better results than treatment as usual.
Most practices offer medicine administration with little-to-no preparation or integration therapy for $500-700 per session. Doc is a certified psychedelic-assisted psychotherapist and offers affordable prices, while also providing superbills for out-of-network insurance reimbursement. A sliding fee scale is also available for those who still might not be able to afford our prices. We don't want cost to be the only thing preventing you from getting excellent mental healthcare.
