Healers: Shannon Darling, Listening for New Ways of Healing

Our healer this week is Shannon Darling, a psychiatric nurse practitioner in Fort Collins. Using listening to provide wholistic mental health care, she offers ketamine prescriptions and ketamine assisted therapy for appropriate clients. We discuss why ketamine is an effective tool in therapy, what offering wholistic treatment entails, and how to interpret and diagnose the right psychiatric treatment for each patient. We also discuss the power of group therapy for first responders and why Darling has focused her practice on women, children, and adolescents.
