We're Here To Help

Whether you’ve experienced emotional numbing, physical side effects, or a lingering sense that your current regimen is holding you back, we’re here to help you safely reduce or fully taper, your dependence on psychiatric medications using a compassionate, evidence-informed, and individualized approach.

At Recovery Without Walls, we believe healing doesn’t come in a one-size-fits-all prescription. Instead, we offer deeply personalized care that combines psychiatric expertise with integrative therapies to support your body, mind, and spirit through every stage of the tapering process.

Why Tapering Needs to Be Done Thoughtfully

Many patients are prescribed psychiatric medications such as SSRIs without a long-term plan. Over time, the benefits may plateau or cause new challenges entirely. Abrupt changes or poorly managed tapers for psychiatric medications can result in withdrawal symptoms, emotional instability, and unnecessary suffering.

Our team specializes in helping people:

Reduce or come off long-term use of SSRIs, SNRIs, stimulant medications, and antipsychotics

Address treatment-resistant symptoms and medication side effects

Explore non-pharmacological tools for emotional regulation and nervous system resilience

Feel safe, supported, and empowered throughout the transition

Our Holistic Tapering Process

Led by Inna Zelikman, PMH-NP, our integrative psychiatry team provides an individualized tapering plan grounded in clinical expertise, trauma-informed care, and sustainable lifestyle changes.

Every tapering protocol includes:

Comprehensive Evaluation

We assess your history, medication use, symptoms, and life circumstances to create a safe, structured tapering plan tailored to your biology and goals.

Whole-Person Support

From nutritional interventions and targeted supplementation to somatic therapy and nervous system support, we help your body adapt to change and restore emotional balance.

Medication Optimization

We adjust dosages strategically, monitor for withdrawal symptoms, and explore alternative or complementary treatments as needed.

Experiential and Somatic Therapies

Trauma-informed practices like somatic therapy, IFS, and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (when appropriate) help address the underlying causes that led to medication reliance in the first place.

Mind-Body Healing Practices

Breathwork, mindfulness, and ecotherapy are integrated into care to help you reconnect with yourself and regulate your nervous system without medication.

Nutritional and Supplement Protocols

We incorporate strategic nutritional and supplement support to ease the tapering process and promote mental wellness. Our approach includes the use of targeted nutraceuticals to regulate neurochemistry and reduce withdrawal symptoms, anti-inflammatory dietary recommendations to enhance mood stability and cognitive clarity, and individualized supplement protocols designed to restore energy levels and support optimal neurotransmitter balance.

Functional Medicine Testing

As part of our holistic tapering protocol, we use functional medicine testing to uncover underlying physiological imbalances that may contribute to mental health challenges. This includes comprehensive hormonal panel evaluations to assess thyroid and adrenal function, analysis of inflammatory markers and the gut-brain axis, and detailed micronutrient and metabolic assessments. These insights allow us to create more targeted, personalized treatment plans that address the root causes of symptoms, not just their surface expressions.

Sleep Disorder Management

Sleep issues are common during medication tapering and can significantly impact recovery. Our program includes dedicated support for insomnia, nightmares, and disrupted sleep patterns, especially those related to medication withdrawal. We offer non-habit-forming interventions such as circadian rhythm optimization, evidence-based sleep hygiene techniques, and integrative treatment plans that address trauma-related and hormonally influenced sleep disturbances. Quality sleep is foundational to mental clarity, emotional balance, and sustainable healing.
