“Are You Ready to Reduce Your Medication Reliance?” — Take the Quiz
Reclaim Clarity. Make Informed Choices. Heal with Confidence.
Are you wondering whether you still need your psychiatric medication? Do you feel stuck on a prescription that no longer helps — or perhaps never did? At The Holistic Psychiatry Clinic, we offer a safe, thoughtful space for medication review and deprescribing that puts you back in control of your mental health journey.
Why Medication Review and Deprescribing Matters
Psychiatric medications can be lifesaving. But they can also be overused, poorly monitored, or difficult to stop — leaving many people uncertain about what to do next. That’s where we come in.
Our medication review and deprescribing service is designed to:
- Clarify what’s working (and what isn’t)
- Identify unnecessary or harmful prescriptions
- Explore safe, gradual strategies for reducing or stopping medication
- Help you feel more like yourself again — not just medicated
We bring together psychiatric expertise and a holistic understanding of your life, your health, and your goals.
As outlined in the NHS guidance on stopping antidepressants, reducing medications should be gradual and supported to minimise withdrawal effects and emotional distress.
What to Expect
Personalised Medication Review
In your initial consultation, we:
- Carefully assess your current medications
- Review your history, symptoms, and wellbeing
- Explore side effects and interactions
- Listen to your concerns, goals, and preferences
You’ll receive a clear, evidence-based recommendation — tailored to you.
Deprescribing Strategy
If a reduction is appropriate, we co-create a tapering plan that may include:
- Gradual dose adjustments
- Psychological and lifestyle support
- Coordination with your GP, pharmacist, or care team
- Coaching to help you manage emotions and rediscover resilience
Our medication review and deprescribing process is never rushed. You set the pace.
Is This Right for You?
You may benefit from this service if:
- You’ve been on the same medication for years without re-evaluation
- You want to reduce or come off psychiatric drugs safely
- You’ve experienced difficult side effects or emotional numbing
- You’re ready to explore more natural or empowering approaches to healing
Our Philosophy: Pro-Choice, Not Anti-Medication
We are not here to shame or pressure. Many people benefit from medication — and others outgrow the need. Our job is to support your decision with clarity, compassion, and medical responsibility.
Learn more about professional recommendations from the Royal College of Psychiatrists on stopping antidepressants and how tapering should be done safely and respectfully.
Whether you stay on a prescription, adjust your dose, or come off entirely, the choice is yours.
Begin with Confidence
If you feel unsure about your current treatment, you’re not alone. Thousands of people are asking the same questions — and finding freedom through conscious change.
