Our Nurse Practitioner/Psychotherapist, Matt Ball, provides a service for those wishing to consider de-prescribing or tapering. This service is led by the latest evidence and the Maudsley Deprescribing Guidelines (Taylor and Horowitz, 2024).

This Nurse Practitioner led clinic to de-prescribing considers both the hyperbolic approach to tapering doses of medication and a social and relational approach to individualised tapering. Our approach to de-prescribing recommends that a person seeking to taper off long term use of medication also access psychotherapy or other forms of support – this support is available at Humane Clinic Psychotherapy Collective from therapists experienced in providing support throughout a de-prescribing journey.
