Breaking Through Barriers: How Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy is Transforming Mental Health
At Moon Collective Sanctuary, we believe in the power of intention, safe spaces, and innovative tools to support deep transformation. In our latest podcast episode of The Moon Collective Sanctuary Podcast, I had the privilege of welcoming Dr. Marc Smith, M.D., a board-certified psychiatrist and the founder of CLEAR Ketamine + Psychiatry in Westlake Village, California. With advanced training at Columbia University and USC, Dr. Smith has dedicated his career to offering innovative, evidence-based, and deeply human care for individuals facing depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health challenges.

After discovering her calling while supporting her grandfather's transition, Mary left her career in finance and insurance to dedicate herself to creating spaces for spiritual connection during life's final chapter.
