In this episode of Thrive with Carrie, I sit down with Gwen Dudley, Community Outreach Specialist at The Mood Center in Annapolis, to explore powerful new approaches to mental health care. Gwen shares her personal journey with grief and healing, and explains how innovative treatments like ketamine infusions, Spravato, and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) are helping people find breakthroughs when traditional therapy and medications fall short.

We discuss:

• What ketamine therapy is and how it works in the brain
• The science of neuroplasticity and rewiring thought patterns
• Real patient stories of hope, healing, and transformation
• Common fears and misconceptions about ketamine
• Alternative treatments available at The Mood Center, including insurance-covered options

If you or someone you love has been searching for answers in the struggle with depression, anxiety, PTSD, or chronic pain, this conversation could open the door to new possibilities and hope.
