ADVANCED CARE FOR TREATMENT-RESISTANT CONDITIONS
When Traditional Treatments Don't Work, A New Path May Be Possible
- Not every individual responds to standard medications or talk therapy. For those facing persistent symptoms despite trying multiple conventional approaches, this can be deeply disheartening. At Mind Medicine, we recognise the unique challenges of treatment-resistant mental health conditions—and we believe in offering compassionate, forward-thinking care that reflects the most current knowledge in the field.
- Our approach is grounded in clinical experience, research awareness, and ethical responsibility. While not all emerging therapies are widely available or approved, we support open, evidence-informed discussions and comprehensive assessments to help patients find hope and clarity.
Who We Support
We work with individuals who experience:
- Long-standing depression that has not improved with standard antidepressants
- Persistent anxiety or trauma-related symptoms
- Emotional disconnection or existential distress
- Complicated medication histories or adverse reactions
Many of our clients arrive after years of trying multiple treatment paths. Our role is to help assess what might still be possible—clinically, legally, and holistically.
Our Clinical Process
We begin with a thorough intake process and psychiatric review, allowing us to understand your complete mental health history, treatment journey, and goals. From there, we design an individualised plan that may include:
- Comprehensive diagnostic clarification
- Supervised medical reviews for previously trialled or underused therapies
- Structured psychotherapy focused on integration, insight, and somatic regulation
- Collaborative care with external specialists, where appropriate
In cases where patients are seeking next-step options for treatment-resistant conditions, we can explore options together—including innovative approaches—within legal and ethical frameworks.
Exploring Emerging Modalities
While we do not advertise or offer access to any unapproved or restricted medications, we stay informed about the evolving global landscape of mental health treatment. Where clinically appropriate, we can provide:
- Education about currently available treatment pathways
- Clarification around the regulatory status of advanced interventions
- Referrals or collaboration with authorised prescribers (if applicable)
Our clinicians remain up to date with ongoing research in Australia and internationally, and we take a science-informed, ethically aligned position when discussing all care options.
A Message of Hope
Treatment resistance does not mean the end of the road. Sometimes it means that a more tailored, nuanced, or innovative approach is required. At Mind Medicine, we welcome those who feel they’ve run out of options—because we know that, with the right support and the right conversations, there may still be meaningful ways forward.
