Post-stroke depression
Affects roughly one in three stroke survivors and peaks in the first three to twelve months. The sign families notice first is usually repeated refusal or postponement of physiotherapy.
In short
KIN's mental health clinic runs online video consultations every day from 16:00 to 19:30, covering depression, bipolar disorder, panic, anxiety, insomnia and adjustment difficulties — including the two conditions most tied to home care: post-stroke depression and family caregiver burnout. Booking at least one day ahead is required and there are no walk-ins; the consultation fee is confirmed at booking. Call 095-884-2233.
Why this sits inside home care, not beside it
Caregiver burnout
The physical, emotional and mental exhaustion that accumulates from caring for a family member long term. It usually starts with lost sleep and declined invitations, then turns into irritability and guilt at not doing enough.
Withdrawn older adults and insomnia
Forgetfulness, withdrawal, insomnia and unusual irritability are often written off as ageing, when they are frequently signs that deserve assessment.
Mood assessed alongside movement
For patients already in rehabilitation, mood is assessed together with movement, and physiotherapy goals are re-staged so they can actually be achieved — repeated failure deepens depression.
No need to bring anyone out
Getting a person with limited mobility to a specialist is the barrier that stops many families from starting at all. A video consultation removes the journey and keeps it private.
Prescribed medication delivered
Where the doctor prescribes, medication is delivered to the address on file and a follow-up appointment is scheduled.
Caregiver burnout — warning signs and what to do
| Stage | What typically happens | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Early | Poor sleep, frequent headaches, no time for oneself, declining invitations | Schedule rest, share shifts with other family members |
| Accumulating | Irritability, guilt at not doing enough, crying alone, isolation, weight change | Consult a mental health professional and consider respite care so you can rest |
| Burnout | Exhaustion that stops daily function, loss of appetite, chronic insomnia, thoughts of self-harm | See a doctor promptly and hand over care temporarily |
If there are thoughts of self-harm or suicide, seek help immediately — the Thai Mental Health Hotline 1323 operates 24 hours, or go to the nearest hospital emergency department. This online service is not an emergency service.
Fees and booking
The consultation fee is confirmed when you book, because it depends on the format and whether medication is prescribed. The full cost is given before the appointment is confirmed — nothing is added later.

Frequently asked questions
How much is an online consultation?
The fee is confirmed at booking because it depends on the consultation format and whether medication is prescribed. Ask on 095-884-2233 before deciding.
What are the opening hours?
Every day from 16:00 to 19:30, including public holidays. Booking at least one day ahead is required; there are no walk-ins.
Can family consult on behalf of an older relative who refuses?
Family members can consult for guidance on how to respond, but diagnosis and prescribing require assessing the person themselves. Many families start with the caregiver consulting alone to find a way to open the conversation, then book a joint session.
What if there are thoughts of self-harm?
Seek help immediately — the Thai Mental Health Hotline 1323 is available 24 hours, or go to the nearest hospital emergency department. This online clinic works by appointment and is not an emergency service.
Where should an exhausted caregiver start?
Start by accepting that the load is more than one person can carry, then arrange for someone to take over in blocks — another family member, a hired caregiver on shifts, or day care. Only then work on your own symptoms.
