TMS Therapy

TMS Therapy

(Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation)

Difficulty concentrating isn’t always “just ADHD.” Depression, anxiety, and OCD can quietly drain motivation, disrupt sleep, and impair attention—sometimes even more than ADHD itself.

For many people, improving focus starts with stabilizing what’s underneath: mood, intrusive thoughts, and nervous-system overwhelm. If you’ve tried therapy and/or medications and still feel stuck, you may be a candidate for a more targeted approach.

TMS is an advanced, non-invasive treatment that is FDA-cleared for depression and FDA-cleared for OCD—and may be appropriate when traditional treatment hasn’t been enough.

Bridge (Spravato®): If depression has remained severe despite multiple treatment attempts, we may discuss additional advanced options such as Spravato® (esketamine), an FDA-approved treatment for treatment-resistant depression. We’ll review whether it’s a fit based on your history and needs.
