Jason Garner

Originally pursuing a career in law, Dr. Garner eventually switched paths and went back to school to become a doctor. He has always been interested in psychology and helping others. He grew up with a relative with severe mental illness. That experience shaped this desire and instilled his compassion for those with mental illness. It also provided him with early, informal training.

His working style with patients involves truly trying to understand their world and working alongside them in a collaborative relationship to assist them in meeting their goals. He helps patients get out of their sometimes entrenched way of thinking as he builds a treatment plan that fits with their lifestyle and supports their recovery.

Dr. Garner has always enjoyed learning about the brain. For him, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) allows another access point of healing for those suffering from mental illness. It is an additional mode of treatment to assist patients, outside the usual modes of psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy and can make a difference in helping a patient find relief.
