Services
TMS Therapy
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive FDA-approved treatment for major depressive disorder. This therapy uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain's prefrontal cortex, targeting mood regulation. Patients receive personalized treatment plans with sessions lasting 20-40 minutes, typically administered 3-5 times weekly for 4-6 weeks. Our clinic provides comprehensive monitoring and follow-up care to ensure optimal outcomes.
Spravato Treatment
Spravato (esketamine) nasal spray treats treatment-resistant depression and major depressive disorder with suicidal ideation. Administered under medical supervision, this FDA-approved medication works rapidly by targeting NMDA receptors in the brain. Patients receive treatment in our certified facility with post-session monitoring. Combined with oral antidepressants, Spravato offers new hope for those unresponsive to traditional therapies.
Genetic Testing
Our Genesight Lab genetic testing analyzes how your body metabolizes psychiatric medications. This personalized approach identifies optimal medication choices and dosages by examining genetic markers related to drug metabolism. The non-invasive cheek swab test informs treatment decisions, reducing trial-and-error prescribing and minimizing adverse reactions while improving treatment effectiveness for mental health conditions.
Medication Management
Our psychiatrists provide comprehensive medication management for mental health conditions. This includes initial assessment, prescription of appropriate medications, regular monitoring, and dosage adjustments. We emphasize patient education about medication benefits and side effects while maintaining open communication to address concerns and ensure treatment adherence through regular follow-up appointments.
Psychiatric Evaluation
Our comprehensive psychiatric evaluations assess mental health concerns through detailed clinical interviews, medical history reviews, and symptom analysis. This process establishes diagnosis, treatment goals, and personalized care plans. The evaluation includes diagnostic screening tools and collaborative goal-setting to create individualized treatment strategies addressing specific mental health needs and patient preferences.
