TMS
For Adolescents

TMS for children & adolescents.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment that targets areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. It's FDA-cleared for adolescents ages 15–21 with major depressive disorder who have not had adequate improvement with antidepressant medications.

TMS does not involve medication, anesthesia, or sedation. Treatments are performed in-office, and patients remain awake and alert — returning to normal activities, including school, the same day.

When might TMS be considered?
  • Depression that has not responded to medication
  • Difficulty tolerating medication side effects
  • Preference for a non-medication treatment option
  • Desire to reduce or avoid long-term medication use

In appropriate cases, TMS may be used in place of medication management or alongside reduced medication — depending on clinical judgment, age, and symptom severity.

Parent FAQs

The questions we hear most.

Safety
Is psychiatric care safe for children and adolescents?
Yes. All evaluations and treatments are developmentally appropriate and evidence-based. Safety is our top priority.
Medication
Does my child have to take medication?
No. Medication is only recommended when clinically appropriate. We always discuss non-medication options and consider family preferences.
School
Will treatment interfere with school?
Most appointments are designed to minimize disruption. TMS treatments, when indicated, allow patients to return to school the same day.
Specialty Care
How do I know if my child needs specialty psychiatric care?
If symptoms are affecting mood, behavior, school performance, or relationships, an evaluation can help clarify next steps and provide guidance.
Insurance & Referrals

We accept referrals from pediatricians, therapists, schools, and other healthcare providers. Our team assists with benefit verification and prior authorization when needed — including for advanced treatments such as TMS.
