If you struggle with a mental disorder, know that you’re far from alone. This can easily make you feel isolated, but more people than you realize share similar experiences. Over the years, people have become more open when it comes to discussing and seeking help for mental disorders like depression, OCD, and PTSD. While this can make people feel more comfortable seeking treatment, traditional methods of therapy aren’t always the best option.
For many people struggling with mental health disorders, traditional therapy isn’t effective. Medications intended to treat these conditions can often come with unpleasant side-effects. Understanding there are more ways to help brain health, TMS & Brain Health offers alternative mental health treatment and cutting-edge techniques that can provide more relief for our patients. We’re the first clinic in Southern California to specialize in Express Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), Ketamine infusion therapy, Spravato™ Esketamine nasal spray, and neurofeedback.
At TMS & Brain Health, we work with each patient individually at our brain health centers in Los Angeles and Santa Monica to provide treatment that works best for their specific needs. Our team is dedicated to creating individualized treatment plans that are based on their specific symptoms, past experiences, and goals. Through our treatment plans, our patients can receive treatments that can significantly improve their brain health but aren’t available at many clinics.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is a noninvasive procedure that uses magnetic pulses—similar to those of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machine—to awaken parts of the brain that are underactive in people who suffer from depression. This procedure can start to become effective after only four to six weeks. At TMS & Brain Health, we tailor each session to that specific patient to receive the best results. TMS therapy in Los Angeles can be used for a variety of mental disorders, we have a 92.5% success rate with using it to treat people with depression, anxiety, chronic pain, OCD, PTSD, and/or ADHD.

TMS & Brain Health offers several different Ketamine treatment options, including ketamine infusions, intramuscular ketamine injections, Spravato™ Esketamine nasal spray, and a compounded ketamine nasal spray custom-made for each patient.
