NJ Ketamine Pioneer Opens 2nd Clinic in South Plainfield

Reyou Ketamine Treatments

Reyou Ketamine Treatments, the NJ mental health practice that has delivered more than 8,000 transformative treatments for depression, anxiety, PTSD and other mood disturbances, has opened its 2nd clinic at 908 Oak Tree Road in South Plainfield. The expansion comes as the practice's Howell location is consistently booked, with demand for relief of mental health symptoms surging across Central NJ. The expansion comes as treatment-resistant depression affects an estimated 2.8 million Americans, and most patients still don't know that Spravato — the FDA-approved nasal spray form of ketamine — is covered by most commercial and federally funded insurance plans, including Horizon, Cigna, and Aetna. "People come to us after years of trying medications that didn't work for depression, anxiety, PTSD — they're exhausted. They've lost hope," said Michael Langer, founder of Reyou. "What our team has seen across 8,000 treatments is that ketamine doesn't just relieve symptoms — it gets at the root and gives people a window where real change becomes possible. Our job is to make sure that window is maximized for lasting change." Despite growing clinical evidence and FDA approval, access to ketamine-based treatments in NJ remains limited. Many clinics offer infusions as a standalone service — administer the IV, send the patient home. However, Reyou was built on a different premise. Every treatment at Reyou includes integration support — guided sessions during the critical neuroplasticity window that ketamine creates, designed to help patients process their experience and build lasting change. It's a model informed by data from Harvard-affiliated clinics studying more than 2,000 patients. "The treatment opens a door. Integration is what helps people walk through it," said Langer. "We don't do drive-through ketamine. Reyou was built around what actually produces lasting results." The 908 Oak Tree Road location is now scheduling appointments.
