Background and History
New Pathways Clinic was founded by Steve, who opened the practice after his own success achieving remission from multiple psychiatric diagnoses through ketamine therapy. Understanding the difficulty of these conditions firsthand, he built New Pathways to be a welcoming, judgment-free environment and to make the treatments that helped him accessible to others. The clinic has since grown into one of Ohio’s most established ketamine providers, with locations spanning greater Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati and more than a decade of combined provider experience.
The clinic’s vision is a holistic “mental wellness campus” that combines cutting-edge treatments like ketamine infusions with accompanying therapy and lifestyle education. To that end, New Pathways collaborates with Stella Luna Counseling and Wellness to offer talk therapy, EMDR, and somatic processing alongside ketamine care, and runs a free monthly virtual support group. Recognizing the strong link between physical and mental health, the clinic added semaglutide and tirzepatide medical weight loss as part of a more comprehensive approach to overall wellness.
