Deprescribing and Tapering
Psychiatric Medications

Take Back Your Health. Take Back Your Power.

True healing isn't just about starting a medication — it's about knowing when (and how) to step away from one.

 

If you're feeling ready to explore life beyond long-term prescriptions, you're not alone. I'm here to guide you through the process of deprescribing and tapering with expertise, compassion, and a plan built around you.​​

What is Deprescribing?

Deprescribing is the thoughtful, individualized process of reducing or discontinuing psychiatric medications when they are no longer serving your highest health. It's a proactive step — not a reaction. It puts you back in control.

​

This is not about abandoning care or rejecting science. It's about moving toward a model of mental health that prioritizes your resilience, your root-cause healing, and your freedom over indefinite maintenance.

Why Consider Tapering?

​​

  • Many psychiatric medications (like SSRIs, benzodiazepines, and antipsychotics) were never designed for lifelong use.

  • Long-term use can carry risks: emotional blunting, cognitive decline, metabolic issues, and withdrawal challenges.

  • There are safer, holistic alternatives that deserve to be considered.

  • Healing your body, mind, and spirit often reduces — or even eliminates — the need for medication.

 

I believe your suffering isn't just a "symptom" to medicate away. It's often a call to deeper healing — physically, emotionally, spiritually.

How I Support You​

​

 

Together, we'll create a custom tapering and healing plan based on:

​

  • Your history (not just your diagnosis)

  • Your goals (short and long-term)

  • Your body’s feedback (slow, safe adjustments)

  • Integrative strategies to strengthen your nervous system, gut health, inflammation pathways, sleep, nutrition, and emotional resilience

  • ​

Every step of the way, we work together. This isn't a "one-size-fits-all" approach. It’s your health, your timing, your life.

​

What to Expect

​

  • Detailed assessment of your current medications, symptoms, and overall health

  • Personalized tapering plan based on evidence and your unique situation

  • Holistic support tools to reduce withdrawal symptoms and support true healing

  • Ongoing check-ins to adjust your plan as needed

  • Empowerment to build mental health that doesn't depend on a pill bottle

 

We don’t rush. We don’t pressure. I partner with you to ensure success at every phase.

​

Important: Always Work With a Provider

 

Tapering psychiatric medications must be done carefully, with professional guidance. Abrupt or unsupported discontinuation can be dangerous.

​

I specialize in safe, evidence-informed deprescribing that respects your body’s needs and your personal journey.
