Liz Braun

Liz is a board-certified psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) who received advanced practice training at Vanderbilt University. She has gone on to receive training in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) through The Ketamine Training Center, under the guidance of Dr. Phil Wolfson, and has also been certified in psychedelic-assisted therapy through the Integrative Psychiatry Institute.

Since joining Intero, Liz has facilitated over 500 KAP medicine sessions and has witnessed her patients, especially those who have felt “stuck” and unable to make significant progress with traditional treatments, experience positive shifts and lasting change in their mental well-being. Liz has found KAP to be a powerful tool in helping people heal the root causes of emotional suffering, especially trauma.

Liz believes that developing a collaborative therapeutic relationship with her patients, where patients feel truly seen and heard, plays an essential role in her patients’ pursuit of healing and wellness.  Liz’s past experiences as a psychiatric nurse, emergency nurse, and sexual assault nurse examiner have equipped her with a broad array of skills to utilize when working with her patients.  Liz is guided by empathy, integrity, and honesty and believes that everyone deserves care that respects their individuality—their story, their needs, and their vision for the future.
