FDA-approved treatment for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), and smoking cessation. TMS uses gentle magnetic pulses generated in the BrainsWay Deep TMS helmets to modulate electrical activity in the brain, primarily involved in mood regulation and cognitive function. This treatment is safe and non-invasive with minimal side effects compared to traditional pharmacological treatments, allowing you to immediately continue your daily life after each treatment session.

Spravato® is a ketamine nasal spray used for treatment-resistant depression and individuals with acute suicidal ideation. Spravato® works by releasing neurochemicals that regrow neural pathways, or increase neuroplasticity. It is an FDA-approved therapy that can be used either with an oral antidepressant or as a standalone treatment.
Please Note: Per the FDA’s guidelines, treatment must be done in our office and patients must stay for 2 hours while the treatment is in peak effect.

The first three months of treatment is considered the “optimization period” where you should start to see improvements in your symptoms. The first month, you will come in for 2 treatment sessions per week. For the second and third month, you will come in for 1 treatment per week. Each session will last 2 hours.
-
After your optimization period, you will need to continue coming in, though less frequently, to stay in remission and prevent a relapse of symptoms. The exact frequency will vary by individual tolerance and lifestyles, and will be evaluated by our Medical Director.
