My practice offers a more thoughtful, whole-person approach to mental health. Rather than focusing primarily on adding new psychiatric medications, I help patients improve the foundations of health while carefully supporting the continuation and, when appropriate, gradual tapering of existing psychiatric medications. My work combines psychiatric deprescribing, hyperbolic tapering, metabolic health, therapeutic nutrition, and lifestyle support.

Hyperbolic tapering is a method of reducing psychiatric medications in progressively smaller proportional steps as the dose gets lower. This approach is intended to better support the nervous system and reduce the risk of withdrawal-related destabilization. Instead of using large dose cuts or rushed timelines, tapering is individualized based on the medication, the dose, duration of use, symptom history, and how your body responds along the way.

Reducing psychiatric medications too quickly can trigger withdrawal symptoms that may be severe, prolonged, and destabilizing. Because withdrawal symptoms can overlap with anxiety, depression, insomnia, agitation, and other psychiatric symptoms, they may sometimes be mistaken for relapse or a new diagnosis. My practice uses a slower, more individualized approach to help reduce that risk and better support the nervous system during the tapering process.

Yes. Some patients join specifically to begin with metabolic healing and foundational support before making medication changes. Depending on your goals and situation, we may first focus on labs, nutrition, sleep, movement, and stress management before beginning or resuming a taper. This can help create a more stable foundation for healing.

We offer flexible pricing based on project type and complexity. After an initial conversation, we’ll provide a transparent quote with no hidden costs.

Collaborative, honest, and straightforward. We're here to guide the process, bring ideas to the table, and keep things moving.

Yes. The onboarding fee is a one-time fee that covers the deeper assessment, review, and planning needed to get started. The monthly membership covers ongoing care and support.

No. Not everyone begins with tapering immediately. Some patients first focus on stabilization and improving the foundations of health before starting a taper. In many cases, it can be beneficial to first work on things like sleep, nutrition, metabolic health, stress load, and overall resilience so the body and nervous system are better supported.

Lab support and interpretation are included. Standard lab planning is part of care, and advanced or additional labs may be billed separately when applicable.

Current psychiatric medications may be continued when appropriate during stabilization and tapering.

This is not a traditional medication-management practice, and new psychiatric medications are generally not initiated as part of ongoing care.

No. Schedule II stimulant medications are not prescribed in this practice.

This is a direct-pay membership practice. Insurance is not billed for included services.

Tapering timelines vary widely. For some people it may take months; for others it may take years. The process is individualized based on the medication, dose, duration of use, symptom history, and nervous system sensitivity.

The first step is to schedule a free 15-minute discovery call. This gives us an opportunity to briefly discuss your goals, answer general questions about my approach, and determine whether this practice is the right fit for your needs.
