Noma Therapy addresses a critical gap in mental health treatment, combining therapy, medication management, and ketamine treatment
DENVER, April 30, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Noma Therapy today announced $4.25 million in funding to support its official launch as a pioneering provider of insurance-covered, virtual ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. While the company has been operating quietly in Colorado, this moment marks an acceleration of its plans to scale to more states, beginning with Texas. The company also secured a strategic partnership with a leading virtual therapy platform as part of its mission to transform mental health care delivery at scale.
Backed by Redesign Health, Noma Therapy is addressing a critical gap in mental health treatment. Through a unique, evidence-based protocol that combines therapy, medication management, and ketamine treatment, the company offers hope to patients with depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other conditions who haven't responded to conventional treatments. While most antidepressants are only effective for approximately 30% of patients, Noma's program has demonstrated remarkable success with 85% of patients who complete the program reporting a reduction in depression and 72% reporting a reduction in anxiety.
"Today we're taking a significant step forward in our journey to transform the way mental health care is delivered," said Dr. Andrea Auxier, CEO and Founder of Noma Therapy. "The demand for accessible, insurance-covered ketamine-assisted psychotherapy is clear. We're not only uniquely positioned to deliver this impactful solution to patients who have been underserved by traditional treatments, but also to act as a trusted partner for therapists who want to make this kind of collaborative treatment accessible for their patients."
Expanding Access to Innovative Mental Health Care
Noma stands out as the first national ketamine-assisted psychotherapy provider to be in-network with major commercial insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, and TriWest, which serves veterans, active duty military personnel, and their families. Since the majority of treatment costs are covered by insurance, patients pay significantly less than they would at clinics or through providers that don't accept insurance — compared to hundreds or even thousands of dollars at traditional ketamine clinics.
Noma's virtual, time-bound protocol includes medication management, low-dose ketamine sessions, and bi-weekly psychotherapy, all delivered by licensed therapists, psychiatrists and trained guides through a secure telehealth platform. Unlike other providers, Noma requires mandatory therapy and medical oversight as part of its structured program.
Originally launched as a direct-to-consumer offering in Colorado, Noma has expanded into business-to-business partnerships and collaborates with a growing referral network that includes therapy platforms and aggregators, hospital systems, primary care providers, and independent psychiatric practitioners – without platform or partnership fees that are typical for the industry.
