Discover an Alternative Treatment for Depression With Eulas

At Eulas Clinics, we are redefining the approach to mental health treatment and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.

Our clinic based in Scotland provides a progressive range of therapies for depression, different than what has been traditionally offered and opening doors to healing that many thought was out of reach.

What Is Depression?

Described by persistent feelings of unhappiness, hopelessness, and loss of interest or pleasure in activities that a person used to enjoy, depression is a mental health condition that affects as many as 1 in 6 adults across the UK. It also causes physical symptoms such as changes in appetite or sleep patterns, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating.

Depression can range from mild to severe and can be caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and psychological factors. Treatment for depression often involves a combination of therapy, medication, lifestyle changes, and support from loved ones and professionals.

Signs & Symptoms Of Depression

 

Not everyone with depression will experience all of these symptoms, and the severity of symptoms can vary. Although signs and symptoms of depression can vary from person to person, common indicators that may mean support is needed include:

  • Persistent feelings of dismay, despair, or emptiness
  • Loss of interest or pleasure in activities once enjoyed
  • Changes in appetite, including overeating or loss of appetite
  • Changes in sleep patterns, including insomnia or sleeping too much
  • Fatigue or lack of energy
  • Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
  • Feelings of worthlessness or excessive guilt
  • Recurrent thoughts of death or suicide
  • Restlessness or irritability
  • Physical symptoms such as headaches or body aches

A Fresh Take on Depression Treatment

For some people, when it comes to treating depression, what we know and how we approach mental health care doesn’t always fix the problem. That’s where we step in.

Our clinic provides access to alternative treatments for depression, which are research-backed. This includes psychedelic-assisted therapies designed to reach the root cause of depression and allow patients to see life through a new lens.

Our therapy sessions are entirely tailored to personal needs, and we are a safe space for anyone ready to try something new.

Ketamine Assisted Therapy as an Alternative Treatment for Depression

Providing hope for those who have tried everything else, ketamine-assisted therapy is gaining attention for a reason. It’s not only effective – it also works quickly. For those dealing with treatment-resistant depression, the rapid effects of ketamine-assisted therapy can be life-changing.

At Eulas, we are proud to be the first clinic of its kind in Scotland to offer this treatment. Our team of specialists integrate ketamine into a holistic programme that gives people a chance to regain hope and clarity.

We support each and every patient throughout their experience with us, creating a structured, compassionate environment where sessions become a real turning point in their lives.
 
During sessions at Eulas, you’ll receive a controlled dose of ketamine, typically administered through an IV infusion, nasal spray, or oral medication. Evidence-based talk therapies will also be part of these sessions, using the altered state of consciousness induced by the ketamine to explore and address underlying emotional and psychological issues.

Rapid Relief from Symptoms

For those living with depression’s often relentless weight, ketamine offers a refreshingly fast pathway to relief.
Medication routes and standard therapy, if they work, may take weeks to ease symptoms. With our alternative treatment for depression, we offer the potential to make progress within hours.
 
This quick-acting effect not only brings immediate relief to those in crisis but also creates a foundation for sustainable, longer-term improvements in mental health.

You’ll Go Deeper Than Ever Before

People who engage in sessions often find themselves able to connect with deeply personal insights and underlying emotions, bringing to the surface incredible self-discoveries that may have remained hidden.
 
This profound introspection allows individuals to unravel complex emotions, confront past traumas, and gain clarity on long-held beliefs. The result? A therapeutic journey that is less about symptom management and more about working towards a meaningful and lasting change.

 

Sustainable, Positive Progress

The effects of ketamine-assisted therapy continue long after a session ends, which is entirely different to other approaches that only provide short-lived relief.
 
Time and time again, research has shown that ketamine-assisted therapy sessions can trigger enduring changes in brain function, creating the potential for weeks or even months of symptom relief. This allows you to experience extended periods of mental clarity like never before and build resilience within, even as you continue your journey to recovery.

 

Less Long-Term Medications

For those who have tried various antidepressants with limited to no success or unwanted side effects, ketamine-assisted therapy really does offer a promising alternative treatment for depression.
 
This option provides with the freedom to explore a treatment path that emphasises immediate relief, a much deeper self-understanding, and less dependency on medications.
