Study Summary

This study is being conducted at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) to explore whether adding psychedelic coaching can enhance the effects of ketamine or esketamine maintenance treatment in individuals with treatment-resistant depression (TRD). The investigators are currently enrolling participants who are receiving ongoing maintenance intravenous (IV) ketamine or intranasal esketamine (Spravato) treatment at the MGH Ketamine Clinic. Participation in the study will involve adding coaching sessions to your existing ketamine maintenance treatment.

Primary Outcome

We will assess the feasibility of coaching, as indexed by at least 80% of participants (16 of 20 participants) completing 10 out of 12 coaching sessions. The investigators will also review all assessment procedures and calculate the percentage of completed assessments at each time point. In addition, the investigators will compute the number of participants for whom an AE occurred, along with their rate of occurrence, severity, and relationship to the study procedures.
