Therapist profile: Malin Veland
These are talk therapists and counsellors who understand what coming off psychiatric medication actually does to a nervous system. They know that withdrawal can surface weeks after a dose reduction, that it can look exactly like the condition the drug was prescribed for, and that reading it as relapse is how a lot of tapers get derailed.
They do not manage your dose — that stays with your prescriber. What they hold is everything around it: the anxiety and insomnia, the emotional volatility, the grief and anger that often arrive with an iatrogenic injury, and the long work of staying steady through a taper that can run for months or years. In Spain, the featured therapist above offers exactly that kind of support.
Taper-informed therapists are rare enough that almost nobody has one locally, so this work is nearly always done online. Therapists generally see clients within the country where they hold their registration, so start with the practitioners listed here. Malin sees Clients across Spain online, and in person in Madrid.
Look for someone who treats withdrawal as a real physiological process rather than a return of the original condition. The featured therapist listed above works with people in Spain who are tapering, in protracted withdrawal, or recovering from a fast taper.

No. Therapists and counsellors are not prescribers — they cannot start, stop, or adjust a dose. What they can do is support you through the psychological and nervous-system side of a taper: anxiety, sleep, grief, destabilised emotions, and the work of staying steady while your prescriber manages the dose.
Any therapist can listen. One who understands withdrawal knows that withdrawal symptoms can appear weeks after a dose reduction, that they are often misread as relapse, and that the answer is rarely "go back up." That difference decides whether therapy steadies your taper or quietly undermines it.
Usually alongside, not instead. A deprescribing clinician manages the dose and the schedule; a therapist supports you through what the taper stirs up. Many people work with both.
