Hello, I’m Dr. Brent Mruz, a licensed clinical psychologist and the founder of Silver River Counseling in Ocala, Florida. My practice focuses on helping people move beyond simply managing symptoms and toward meaningful psychological growth. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable individuals who find themselves stuck in repeating emotional or relational patterns—whether involving anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions. Together we work to understand the deeper patterns that shape these experiences and to develop the internal skills needed to create lasting change. When appropriate, I integrate ketamine-assisted psychotherapy to support insight, emotional openness, and psychological flexibility. In my practice, ketamine is not a stand-alone treatment but part of a carefully guided therapeutic process designed to help clients explore their inner experience and move toward greater clarity, resilience, and authenticity.
