Carissa Higgins, PMHNP-BC
Child and Family Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner
Payson AZ
We will begin with a full psychiatric evaluation. At the end of the eval we unpack a negative core belief you would like to release and a positive install (or cognition) to replace it. The following sessions include a check in to assess your progress and update your treatment plan, a ketamine session where I remain in the room with you to offer therapeutic support as well as repetition of your positive install and an immediate integration after. I take extensive notes so that you can remember all of the important details of your experience. I also administer the ketamine in a ceremonial style container. My treatment room is cozy and inspiring, the music is meditative and, with your consent, I burn some Palo Santo. I treat your experience with the ketamine as a sacred time to access your True Self.
