What Is NeuroStar TMS Therapy?
NeuroStar Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) Therapy is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive procedure that uses targeted magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. Unlike medications, TMS doesn’t circulate systemically, so there’s no risk of sedation or the common side effects associated with antidepressants. Treatments are quick—typically 19–37 minutes—and you can resume your normal activities immediately afterward.
Who Is It For?

“I feel respected, heard, seen and valued. They helped me find a great match with a therapist who is real and validates me while also pushing me outside my comfort zone. I was worried therapy would feel disconnected and clinical and I feel like I’m chatting with a friend who gives non judgmental, sage advice and wisdom. They work with me on my schedule, which is ever changing, and are responsive and professional! Highly recommend this entire practice."
