Journey Clinical is on a mission to address the growing mental health crisis by unlocking access to legal, evidence-based Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapies (PAP) across the United States. Journey Clinical has built a turnkey telehealth platform that enables licensed mental health professionals to expand their practice, starting with Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP). Their novel decentralized clinic model provides member psychotherapists with unprecedented access to a KAP-trained medical team, as well as a robust care management platform designed to deliver personalized treatment plans for enhanced clinical outcomes. Over 1M+ licensed mental health professionals in the U.S. now have access to transformative psychedelic therapies to augment their practice and significantly improve patient outcomes. Jonathan Sabbagh is the Co-Founder and CEO of Journey Clinical, the leading telehealth platform for licensed psychotherapists in the US to expand their practice with transformative psychedelic therapies. A serial entrepreneur, Jonathan built his career in finance, spending over two decades working for hedge funds in Switzerland and NYC. After receiving a difficult diagnosis of PTSD and extreme burnout, Jonathan left the world of finance to focus on his mental health. During this period, he experienced firsthand the transformative benefits of psychedelic therapies, particularly plant medicine and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), which transformed his condition and inspired him to begin formal studies to become a clinical psychotherapist. Jonathan’s personal breakthroughs with psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, as well as his research studies at The New School motivated Jonathan to expand access to safe, effective psychedelic therapy for all. The result was the founding of Journey Clinical in 2020, a novel decentralized clinic mode for clinical psychotherapists that provides unprecedented access to KAP for their patients, giving over 1M+ licensed mental health professionals in the U.S. access to transformative psychedelic therapies to augment their practice and significantly improve patient lives.Jonathan and Dr. Hoye discusses his journey from the work of finance to the world of mental health and psychedelically assisted psychotherapy.
