Welcome to the TMS & Brain Health intensive outpatient program! Our licensed and Joint Commission accredited program is designed to break through treatment-resistant depression, pain, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder using a combination of scientifically validated therapies and treatments. This program contains an in-person component and a telemedicine component. It is ultimately tailored to meet your individual needs.
During your first week, your assigned therapist will create a treatment plan with you. Depending on your needs, this may consist of some combination of ketamine/esketamine, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, neurofeedback, group therapy (including couples and family therapy), individual therapy, mindfulness, and hypnotherapy. Note that while some of these modalities are optional, attending group therapy is an insurance-mandated requirement to attend our program.
TMS uses magnetic pulses to gently activate parts of the brain associated with depression and anxiety. TMS is typically administered 5 times per week for 4-6 weeks. TMS is both drug-free and FDA-approved.
Ketamine (or name-brand Spravato) is a Schedule III intranasal spray. Intranasal administration is preferable due to its ability to rapidly alleviate symptoms of depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and chronic pain.
Group therapy is mostly conducted via HIPPA compliant telemedicine (Zoom). These group check-ins will be inclusive of other people in the program, and may consist of evidence-based tools such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness training, psychoeducation, and/or hypnotherapy.
You will have an individual therapy session at least once per week via telemedicine. We may encourage you to consider having a family member or significant other present for some therapy sessions.
