In June 2025, researchers at the Psychedelic Science conference released results that might change how we treat depression for good: 67% of participants who received a single dose of psilocybin-assisted therapy reported being in remission five years later.
That’s not just impressive it’s revolutionary.
Meanwhile, another trial, this time involving a psychedelic nasal spray, showed meaningful reductions in depression symptoms within 24 hours, even with shorter therapist supervision. The results suggest new, more scalable models of care for those struggling with treatment-resistant conditions like major depressive disorder or PTSD (Financial Times).
All of this points to a clear truth: psychedelic medicine is not only here to stay it’s evolving. And while the science advances, the question becomes more human: How do we translate these breakthroughs into real healing for real people?
At Within Center in Austin, Texas, that question lives at the heart of everything we do.
A Healing Space Rooted in Connection and Care
We don’t believe healing comes from a single moment or molecule. We believe it begins within in the right space, with the right support, at the right time.
At our center, we combine clinical ketamine therapy with integrative wellness, group retreat experiences, and long-term community support. We’re not just offering medicine we’re offering a process of reconnection: to body, to breath, to purpose.
And that process works.
Over 91% of our clients report measurable improvements in their mental health after 4–6 guided ketamine sessions, supported by therapy, nutritional support, and integration coaching. And for many, what begins as a search for relief becomes the start of a whole new chapter.
The Science Is Catching Up to What We Know Deep Down
The new research confirms what we’ve witnessed for years: that with the right container, a single psychedelic session can shift decades of suffering. But here’s the key it’s not just the medicine.
“Ketamine opens a doorway but it’s what happens afterward that shapes the journey. Our work is about holding people in that process, helping them discover clarity, courage, and connection,” says David, our Founder at Within.
That container includes not just trained clinicians and guides but a genuine sense of being seen, and being held, through every phase of the experience.
Who We Serve
Many of our clients are high-achieving, high-functioning adults entrepreneurs, veterans, executives, parents who’ve “done the work” through therapy, self-help, and even medication, but still feel stuck.
They come to us burned out, grieving, anxious, or facing a major life change. And more often than not, they’re looking for something deeper than just symptom relief.
They’re looking for a way back to themselves.
And that’s where we begin.
Our Approach: Science + Soul
At Within, we offer a uniquely integrated care model that combines:
-
- Clinical ketamine-assisted therapy for safe, legal psychedelic experiences
- Retreat-based healing on our private ranch, with guided sessions, breathwork, yoga, nature immersion, and ceremonial practices
- Functional and integrative medicine, including lab testing, IV therapy, gut and hormonal health support
- Mental health therapy and coaching, both during the process and well beyond
- Community and peer support, including ongoing integration groups, classes, events, membership, fitness, and lifestyle planning
This structure helps our clients move from fragmented and reactive care multiple specialists with no communication to a single, held, and holistic container for deep personal transformation.
Our Retreat Experience
Much more than a “treatment,” our retreats are immersive healing journeys.
Taking place at our private ranch just outside Austin, guests are invited to unplug, slow down, and reset. Our 30+ day retreat programs include:
-
- 4–6 ketamine-assisted therapy sessions with medical supervision and emotional support
- Daily breathwork, yoga, and nervous system-focused movement
- Community processing circles and private coaching
- Whole-food, plant-based meals designed for brain and gut healing
- Optional ceremonial practices rooted in indigenous wisdom
- Cold plunges, sauna, hiking, and nature reconnection
- Personalized aftercare planning and continued integration sessions
By stepping out of everyday life and into a sacred, supported space, our guests are able to do the deep inner work that often isn’t possible in a standard clinical environment.
Why Integration Matters
The biggest misconception in psychedelic therapy is that the session itself is the healing.
In truth, that’s just the opening.
Without skilled integration space to process, practice, and embody the insights a powerful experience can fade quickly, or even become destabilizing.
That’s why we provide integration coaching, therapy, nutrition, and lifestyle support for at least 30 days post-treatment, with many clients continuing in our community well beyond that. It’s not about prolonging the “trip” it’s about weaving it into your life in meaningful, lasting ways.
A Word on Safety
We take medical and psychological safety seriously. Every client undergoes a thorough intake, medical evaluation, and mental health screening before treatment begins. During sessions, clients are monitored by licensed professionals and held by experienced guides.
Our team is trained in trauma-informed care, and our campus is designed to foster both peace and privacy.
Psychedelic therapy is powerful but it must be done responsibly. That’s our commitment to you.
Back to the Big Picture
The latest research from Psychedelic Science 2025 confirms something deeply hopeful: healing can happen faster, deeper, and more permanently than we once believed.
But what the studies don’t always show is how that happens.
At Within Center, we believe it happens in relationships. In sacred spaces. In trust. In being witnessed, held, and guided through the tender, transformative moments that rewire not just the brain but the heart.
This isn’t a service we offer. It’s a path we walk with you.
