Serving the Tampa Bay area, our clinics offer a modern and effective solution for adults dealing with treatment-resistant depression. We provide personalized, non-invasive TMS therapy in a comfortable and professional outpatient setting. From St. Petersburg to Brandon, we are dedicated to bringing advanced mental healthcare to the Gulf Coast, helping residents find lasting relief and rediscover a life free from the weight of depression.
TMS therapy is a cutting-edge medical treatment that uses focused magnetic fields to stimulate the prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain that regulates mood. This gentle stimulation helps to re-synchronize neural circuits that have become dysregulated by depression, restoring healthy brain function. As a targeted, non-drug therapy, TMS works without the systemic side effects that can make antidepressant medications difficult to tolerate for many individuals.
Our commitment to you is rooted in clinical excellence and safety. Every TMS treatment is prescribed and monitored by our team of experienced medical professionals, led by a licensed psychiatrist. We use FDA-cleared technology and follow evidence-based protocols to ensure you receive the highest standard of care. Your progress is tracked closely, allowing us to optimize your treatment for the best possible outcome.
We understand that your time is valuable. Our outpatient clinics are designed to provide effective treatment that fits seamlessly into your life. With locations offering convenient access from across the Tampa Bay region and flexible appointment scheduling, you can receive your daily TMS session and immediately get back to your work, family, and daily activities.
Our Tampa clinics are dedicated to meeting the mental health needs of the Gulf Coast community. While our primary, FDA-approved focus is on Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), our experienced clinicians also work with off-label applications for other conditions, such as:
Your journey begins with a comprehensive psychiatric assessment to confirm that TMS is the most suitable treatment for your diagnosis.
A full course of TMS typically consists of daily treatment sessions, five days per week, for a period of six to eight weeks. This is followed by a tapering phase with less frequent sessions. The entire process is completed on an outpatient basis.
TMS has been studied for decades and is considered a very safe procedure with no known long-term side effects. The most common short-term side effect is mild scalp discomfort or headache at the treatment site, which typically resolves on its own within the first week of treatment.
An ideal candidate for TMS is an adult who has been diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder and has not found adequate relief from antidepressant medications, or who has experienced significant side effects. The best way to find out is to schedule a consultation with our clinical team for a full evaluation.
Both are innovative treatments for depression, but they work differently. TMS is a non-invasive brain stimulation therapy that uses magnetic pulses. Spravato (esketamine) is a prescription nasal spray derived from ketamine that is administered in-office. Your psychiatrist can discuss the pros and cons of each and help determine which treatment is right for you.
