Ketamine · Spravato

If ketamine or Spravato did not help enough, or left you with unanswered questions.

About the ONCE pathway

ONCE is a professionally supported pathway that combines psilocybin-assisted sessions with psychological preparation and integration.

It is not ketamine. The substance, the dose and the setting are different, and so is the surrounding psychological approach. It is not a treatment and makes no promise of a particular result.

Everyone begins with a confidential preliminary assessment to help understand your situation and whether this pathway may be appropriate for you.

  • Individual assessmentYou share what brings you here. We look at your mental and physical health, approaches you have tried, and what you hope this process might support.
  • Professional reviewQualified clinicians review your summary to consider suitability and risk. You may be invited for a screening conversation.
  • Preparation & in-person daysIf the pathway is appropriate, you continue with preparation, your in-person session in Amsterdam, and integration support afterwards.
  • Integration & follow-upYou are not alone after the experience. We support you in making sense of it and relating it to everyday life.

What research suggests

In controlled academic studies, some participants with persistent depressive symptoms reported meaningful improvement after psilocybin-assisted sessions, including people who had not found enough relief with other approaches.

Results vary between individuals and study populations. It is not possible to predict how any one person will respond.

20–30%of participants reached remission (sustained improvement) in several clinical studies.Figure pending source verification

Research is evolving. ONCE does not promise specific outcomes.
