Ketamine Connections

Episode 38 | Beyond the Infusion: Rethinking Ketamine Therapy with Dr. Austin Harris


Listen Later

Ever heard of a two-hour ketamine infusion—personally titrated in real-time by a board-certified anesthesiologist? Yeah, neither had I. Until now.

In this episode of Ketamine Connections, I sit down with Dr. Austin Harris, founder of NeuroRelief Ketamine & Infusion Therapy in Sherman Oaks, CA. With 17+ years of experience in anesthesiology and a revolutionary, heart-centered approach to ketamine, Dr. Harris is redefining what’s possible in psychedelic care.

 About Dr. Austin Harris
Dr. Harris is a board-certified cardiothoracic anesthesiologist with a background in psychology. After completing his fellowship at Keck Hospital of USC, he founded NeuroRelief Ketamine & Infusion Therapy, now serving clients worldwide. His work is deeply human and radically different—offering real-time titration during ketamine infusions, 7-day access to care, and a full integration strategy that prioritizes mindfulness, customized protocols, and conscious aftercare. In this episode, we explore:

  • Why ketamine is not enough—and what actually makes change stick
  • How ego disillusionment (not ego death!) is a safe, precise process
  • The truth about neuroplasticity—and how to work with it, not waste it
  • Why shorter ketamine infusions often miss the mark
  • Dr. Harris’s sponsor-sponsee model that treats patients as equals
  • Real talk about healing, modern anxiety, the subconscious mind, and how to rewire your emotional patterns

This is a jam-packed, paradigm-shifting episode that weaves neuroscience, mindfulness, and humanity into a powerful framework for change. Special thanks to Dr. Harris for sharing his personal and professional insights—and for inviting me to experience this protocol firsthand. (More on that in a future episode!)
