Áureo | Ketamine Therapy for Anxiety Depression and PTSD in Portland

“Dr Lindsay Wilkinson ND LAc, and her team skillfully worked with the latest scientific research of results-based evidence in order to treat my complex PTSD, migraines and other co-morbidities using six (4hour) IV Ketamine sessions over three weeks. BUT… After the first clinical treatment of respectful medical treatment I had to change tactics. … Very surprisingly (because she is careful not to advertise it) the important adjunct medicine I received was from Dr. Lindsay Wilkinson who is the most skillful Shamanic healer I have met to date! She has been well trained and lovingly initiated by the deeply rooted medicine folx of numerous tribes and affiliations! However… … unlike other Shamans she is very respectful in her non-religious, non-spiritual applications of these skills …Unless You ASK. So if you are open, ASK! Or bring your own story, your own beliefs, your own HOPE to this intense treatment. She can work with Anything!! Dr Lindsay Wilkinson and I had FUN during my trauma healing. (?!) We talked about intentions, pulled oracle cards, built altars with sacred objects to hold the space in the treatment room. We brought in ROSES and essential oils and beautiful blankets and rattles and feathers to help move energy while I was receiving treatment. We sang prayers and chants and I felt comfortable to move my body, shake my body, and even do a little (laying down) dancing — which is what I want when my brain is being softened and reprogrammed!! AND… highly attuned bodywork! Dr Lindsay Wilkinson wasn’t just sitting in the room to monitor me. (I was hooked up to a 5-lead EKG and an IV and she watched my heart rate and blood pressure the entire time). She (with permission) did craniosacral work, Mayan abdominal massage, Reiki, light massage and also Held my Hand! I’m done with treatment now. And I feel that my brain has received surgery. It feels different. And my Spirit feels reconnected. And although the process was not always easy (in between sessions was sometimes very challenging), I have a felt sense in my body that this medicine, and this treatment, was Successful! I wish it for everyone. Please make an appointment Especially if you are at the end of your rope. I believe it’s our best hope!”

“I have been to countless providers for my variety of health issues. Dr. Wilkinson is one of the most caring providers I have met. You can tell when a provider really cares for the people they treat. The minute I met her, it was so apparent she truly wanted the best for me. I was at a low point in my life and Dr.Lindsey met me with empathy and worked with me to achieve a better quality of life. She truly gave me hope in a time that was a foreign concept. I am incredibly grateful Dr. Lindsey was my provider when I lived in Portland”

“Dr. Lindsay has been absolutely fantastic for me. She brings a warmth and care and set of knowledge that is so phenomenal... when I have any kind of problem, be it a physical issue or a psychological issue or a spiritual issue or anything else, I can present it to Dr. Lindsay, and she meets me where I am at with warmth. And when I am ready to do so, she gently helps me work towards solutions. She is not judgmental and she is not too woo-woo for a rebellious skeptic such as myself. She is very grounded and present, and grounding at that. I have been recommended both Western medicine and plant medicine by her, and it seems to me that she balances the two really well, e.g. very effective body work + marshmallow root powder for acid reflux, and then Western ADHD meds for ADHD. I really cannot recommend her enough. We are working together through some extremely deep and gargantuan stuff... but she is so attentive to my window of tolerance and my way of approaching the world that this stuff that would normally be very scary instead feels approachable and safe. She can also provide body work within sessions which is incredible! And she takes OHP! She has very much changed my life, and I am extremely grateful to get to do this work with her.”

“If you are thinking about trying Ketamine for mental health support I would definitely recommend reaching out to Dr. Wilkinson or Dr. Holloway at Aureo. I was a bit nervous because this was a new experience for me, but they were professional, caring, and compassionate. They helped make the treatment a positive and healing encounter. Also, their office manager is helpful and nice too. I feel thankful and lucky I was able to find them.”
