Hawkins Psychiatry

Hawkins Psychiatry in Arlington, Texas offers Spravato for adults with treatment-resistant depression who have tried and failed one or more antidepressants due to lack of response or intolerable side effects. The FDA-approved esketamine nasal spray targets the NMDA receptor and works differently than traditional oral antidepressants, used in combination with one.

Spravato is administered under healthcare provider supervision, with patients resting in a recliner for a two-hour monitoring period while vital signs are checked. The schedule is twice weekly for the first four weeks, then once weekly, with maintenance frequency determined by response. Patients pre-arrange a ride home since sedation prevents driving.

The main office also provides TMS therapy and psychiatric services for ADHD, depression, and PTSD, along with ADHD testing, neurofeedback, and medication management. The office completes short-term disability and FMLA paperwork based on medical necessity.

Every patient is seen in a private room, and Hawkins Psychiatry offers late and evening appointment hours for added flexibility.
