Intro

Welcome to Star Behavioral Health, your haven of healing located in Roanoke, Virginia. We offer a specialized approach to managing symptoms of treatment-resistant depression and acute suicidal ideation. Utilizing an innovative treatment method, our clinic presents a beacon of hope for those who haven't found relief in conventional forms of treatment. Our key offering, Spravato, is a revolutionary ketamine-based nasal spray (also known as Esketamine), which has proven highly effective for our patients.

The guiding force behind Star Behavioral Health's success is Dr. Pamela Ruppel, a seasoned psychiatric nurse practitioner with over twenty years of experience. Her approach, characterized by deep compassion and a wealth of expertise, seeks to understand each patient as an individual, tailoring a unique patient experience. It is this combination of specialized ketamine therapy and traditional mental health treatments that has empowered numerous individuals to reclaim their health. Notably, the FDA approved the use of Spravato in 2019 for those with major depressive disorders unresponsive to other treatments, even extending its use in 2020 for patients experiencing suicidal thoughts or who have recently attempted self-harm.
