Juniper Psychiatry

Fajada Butte, Chaco, NM

Dr. Denise Lin brings decades of mental health expertise to Juniper Psychiatry, including additional training in psychedelic and ketamine therapies.
​
Her emphasis is on careful screening, safety, preparation, psychological support and processing of material that comes up during a treatment. She feels it is important to collaborate with each patient's outside therapist in order to glean the most possible benefit from your treatment course. 

Every ketamine treatment appointment is a 2 hour one-on-one session with Dr. Lin. 

Dr. Lin is committed to providing the highest standard of care to her patients. As such, she follows the KRIYA Institute’s Ethical Guidelines for Ketamine Clinicians. 
 
Dr. Lin looks forward to discussing how Juniper Psychiatry and ketamine therapy may help you on your healing journey.
