The Made to Thrive Show New Mental Health Interventions, New Hope for Our Minds. The Ketamine Masterclass with Dr Sean Thornley MD
The future of mental health care is here. And thank God, because the epidemic of depression, trauma and anxiety is out of control. The use of psychiatric medication like SSRIs is so pervasive people think that’s the only option, but someone like Dr Sean Thornley is proving there is an alternative with his use of ketamine infusions.
A part of the psychedelic revolution, believe you me, it won’t be long before it is normal conversation to hear about your friends and family using ketamine to offer them the opportunity to heal pain and trauma, and find joy and purpose again in their lives.

He completed his internship at Groote Schuur Hospital in Cape Town in 2013 and 2014 before moving to Tambo Memorial Hospital in the East Rand for Community Service where he completed a diploma in anaesthesia.
