Currently ketamine-assisted therapy is expensive and not generally covered by insurance. There are ketamine clinics offering a series of IV treatments at a good profit. There are a lot of individuals, psychiatrists and others, who are striving to make this available in its best form but who have to make a living: they are doing God’s work but have to survive. If you have money there’s no problem getting these treatments. If you don’t, good luck.
In my situation I am semi-retired and continue to do hospital work. I hope to cover expenses including paying my co-sitters, paying rent and malpractice insurance, and so on. But this venture need not generate income.
Our community has been very good to me, as has life, as has the Divine. I don’t believe I was given such skills as I’ve developed just for myself or just to make money. It’s time to give back.
Because the purpose of Journey to New Hope is to promote healing there is not a fixed fee for the journey. The recommended contribution is $400 if you are doing well monetarily. But the principle goes a lot deeper than this.
Part of receiving is giving back. Part of healing is giving of yourself, giving in a way that you have “skin in the game.” The amount I recommend you give should not keep you from living your life or create a sacrifice for you or your family. But it should be more than pocket change. There are no financial tests or forms, only my trust in your integrity.
Giving back doesn’t have to be to Journey to New Hope, and it doesn’t have to be in money. There is plenty of need in the community and lots of ways you can give back.
