Mindful Health Solutions – Austin Names Dr. Victoria Nettles as New Primary Ketamine Therapy Provider 

Austin, TX (June 2, 2025) — �� Mindful Health Solutions is proud to announce Victoria Nettles, MD, as the new primary provider of its Austin clinic, supervising the Ketamine Infusion Therapy (KIT) program. 

A Texas native, Dr. Nettles has practiced psychiatry in the area for more than a decade, including two-and-a-half years at Mindful Health Solutions. She received her bachelor’s degree from Texas Christian University before attending medical school at the University of Texas Medical Branch, later completing her residency at the University of Texas’ Dell Medical School. Upon graduation she worked as an adult psychiatrist at an outpatient clinic as well as Austin State Hospital, and later moved to Mindful Health Solutions, where she continues to provide her expertise in mental wellness. 

“Austin is a city I care deeply about,” Dr. Nettles states, “and I’m committed to bringing the highest standard of interventional psychiatric care to this community.” She is honored to oversee the Mindful Health Solutions’ KIT program, which represents a powerful option for individuals suffering from treatment-resistant depression, suicidality, and other mood disorders. 

Navigating the Changing Landscape of Depression Care
— ��IV ketamine offers a new frontier in psychiatric care—one where we’re no longer limited by the pace of traditional medications, and where patients can find hope and healing when other treatments have not been successful,” Dr. Nettles continues. Having witnessed its transformative potential and the profound relief it can offer patients who have exhausted more conventional paths, she considers it a privilege to guide people through this innovative treatment with compassion, safety, and clinical expertise. 

As of May 2025, the Texas Medical Board is reviewing the role of nurse practitioners in administering ketamine. As a result, many clinics across the state may soon see changes in how care is delivered. While broader access is important, Dr. Nettles emphasizes the value of Mindful Health Solutions’ Austin clinic, and its status in being entirely physician-led. 

“Every patient in our program is evaluated and monitored by a board-certified psychiatrist, ensuring the highest levels of medical oversight, personalized care, and clinical safety,” Dr. Nettles concludes. “We believe patients deserve nothing less.”
