Understanding depression
What it is, and what we look at
Depression is not weakness or a temporary low mood. It involves changes in sleep, appetite, concentration and energy, alongside a persistent loss of interest in things that were previously enjoyable. It is common, treatable, and frequently goes unaddressed for months because the physical symptoms are treated in isolation.
Homeopathic care here is supportive and is offered with a clear boundary: moderate and severe depression require psychiatric assessment, and psychotherapy has strong evidence behind it. Where the presentation is mild, or where a patient is already under psychiatric care, homeopathic treatment can run alongside. Any indication of risk leads to immediate referral, not continued outpatient treatment.
Symptoms
You may recognise these
Causes & triggers
What tends to be behind it
- Genetic and family predisposition
- Bereavement, relationship breakdown or major life stress
- Chronic illness, chronic pain and long-term disability
- Thyroid disease, vitamin B12 and vitamin D deficiency
- Alcohol use, and certain prescribed medications
When to see a doctor promptly
Homeopathic treatment is not the right first step for these. Seek medical assessment if:
- You have thoughts of harming yourself or of not wanting to live — seek help immediately
- You are unable to eat, sleep or carry out basic daily tasks
- Symptoms worsen despite treatment, or there are hallucinations or delusions
How we work
Our approach at the clinic
Individualised prescribing
Homeopathy selects a remedy for the person, not only the diagnosis. Two patients with the same condition often receive different remedies.
Detailed case taking
Your first visit covers medical history, family history, current medication, diet, sleep and stress — all of it informs the prescription.
Works alongside your doctor
We never ask you to stop prescribed medication on your own. Any change is made gradually and in consultation with your treating physician.

Common questions
Asked before the first visit
No. Stopping an antidepressant abruptly can cause withdrawal symptoms and relapse. Any change is made slowly and only by the psychiatrist who prescribed it. Homeopathic treatment is added alongside, not in place of it.

Talk to a doctor about your case
Bring your reports and current prescriptions. The first consultation is a full case assessment, and you will be told plainly if another specialist is the better route.
