Just so we're clear: Dr. Lea Lis, aka "The Shameless Psychiatrist", has a child psychiatry practice in Southampton; she also has a ketamine assisted therapy practice there; they are NOT the same thing! As one of the very few (as in ONLY) child psychiatrists on the east end, Dr. Lis is in very high demand as she works tirelessly to help ease our local mental health crisis, particularly with children. She coordinates with local schools, law enforcement, and of course, families, to navigate the increasingly difficult process of growing up. Her book, "No Shame", lays out a great framework for her practice, as she counsels families to be up front, open and willing to communicate about the often challenging landscape of sex, relationships and healthy living. Her ketamine practice, on the other hand, uses the psychedelic drug to assist adults with a variety of psychological and emotional areas of distress such as depression, PTSD and addiction. She goes into great depth about how the process works, and how patients have successfully used the treatment to achieve better health. Last but not least, she's a "burner". And if you don't know what that is, or you do and you want to hear about it, well... you're gonna hafta listen till the end!!
