psychotherapy+ Ketamine STUDIO
Where Stillness & Depth Take Hold
There is something that happens when you step away from the noise of the week and into a space that asks nothing of you except presence. Our Woodbury space is our founding studio and the home of our full clinical program, including our ketamine-assisted psychotherapy protocol, therapy intensives, and wellness infusions.
The setting is intentional. Woodbury's pace and privacy make it a natural fit for the kind of deep, unhurried therapeutic work we do here. Individual therapy, couples work, family systems consulting, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, and the Infusion Studio are all held by a small, specialized clinical team.
Founded by Samantha Tramuta, LCSW
Founder & Lead Clinician
Samantha Tramuta is the founder of Higher Ground and its lead clinician for couples therapy and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. She created this practice to offer a different kind of clinical experience: rigorous and evidence-based, but also deeply human, unhurried, and attuned to the full picture of what a person is carrying.
Sam's work focuses on couples in disconnection, complex trauma, and psychedelic-assisted therapy. She trained extensively in attachment-based approaches, somatic therapy, and relational neuroscience, and she brings that synthesis to every client she works with.
The Woodbury location reflects her clinical philosophy: a space that feels as considered as the work itself.
THe Work We do Here
Family Systems & Therapy Intensives
Targeted, immersive work for families ready to interrupt reactive cycles, rebuild emotional safety, and restore clarity to the system as a whole. Intensives are available in one and two-day formats, held at the Woodbury studio, designed for moments when weekly sessions are not enough and the work cannot wait.
Therapy for Individuals & Couples
For high-achieving and overfunctioning adults who have been holding everything together at a cost. For couples in disconnection, conflict, or crisis. For complex families and neurodivergent individuals navigating systems that were never built for how their minds work. Weekly sessions and 90-minute deep-work sessions available.
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy
A clinically guided process using ketamine to open a neuroplastic window where therapeutic work can go deeper and change can consolidate more quickly. Includes preparation, a guided dosing session with a therapist and medical provider, and structured integration. Therapy-driven, not infusion-only.
The Infusion Studio
Higher Ground's Woodbury studio houses the Infusion Studio, offering IV ketamine therapy, wellness infusions, and vitamin and hydration injections. For clients in ongoing therapy, infusion support can be integrated into a broader treatment plan. For those exploring ketamine as a first step, our clinical team is available to discuss what the right pathway looks like.
