Depression, anxiety, and mood disorders can feel like an invisible weight, keeping you from living the life you deserve. When traditional treatments like medications and therapy aren’t enough, it’s time for a breakthrough solution.
Insight Choices Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) Therapy is an advanced, non-invasive treatment that helps restore balance in the brain. If you’re ready to take control of your mental health, TMS therapy could be the transformational shift you need.
For many, depression isn’t just feeling sad—it’s a constant struggle against exhaustion, brain fog, and emotional numbness. It can make even the smallest tasks feel overwhelming.
It’s time for a fresh approach to healing, not just managing symptoms.
TMS therapy doesn’t involve medication, chemicals, or invasive procedures, unlike traditional treatments. Instead, it uses targeted magnetic pulses to stimulate the areas of the brain responsible for mood regulation.

We begin with an in-depth assessment of your mental health history, symptoms, and previous treatments. Our specialists will determine if TMS is right for you and create a customized treatment plan based on your needs.
On the day of your first session, you’ll relax in a comfortable chair while a small device delivers gentle magnetic pulses to the targeted areas of your brain.
TMS therapy is most effective when done consistently. A full treatment course usually involves:
? Sessions per week for 4-6 weeks (about 20-30 sessions total).
Many patients start noticing mood, energy, and motivation improvements within the first few weeks.
Unlike medication, which only works while you take it, TMS helps your brain develop lasting improvements in mood regulation. Many people experience long-term benefits, with fewer depressive episodes and greater emotional stability.
One of the most common concerns about TMS therapy is what the experience will be like. Many people are surprised by how simple and relaxing the process is.
Here’s what to expect when you arrive at our Brentwood clinic for treatment:
When you arrive, you’ll be seated in a relaxing treatment chair. There’s no need for sedation or special preparation. You can even bring a book or listen to music during your session.
A small magnetic coil will be placed against your scalp, delivering rhythmic pulses to the targeted brain region. These pulses gently activate the areas responsible for mood regulation.
After your session, you can immediately return to your daily routine—whether heading back to work, meeting friends, or enjoying time outdoors. There’s no recovery time needed.

Yes! Emerging research suggests that TMS therapy may enhance cognitive flexibility, problem-solving skills, and creativity by stimulating the prefrontal cortex’s neural pathways. Many patients report improved clarity, focus, and mental sharpness after treatment.
Both TMS and psychedelic-assisted therapy (like ketamine or psilocybin treatment) target treatment-resistant depression, but they work differently. TMS stimulates brain activity non-invasively with magnetic pulses, while psychedelics temporarily alter brain chemistry to induce neuroplasticity. TMS is FDA-approved and widely accessible, whereas psychedelic therapies are still undergoing clinical trials in many places.
Surprisingly, yes! The brain-gut connection is well-documented, and studies indicate that gut microbiota can influence mood disorders. While TMS directly stimulates brain function, some patients experience indirect benefits such as reduced stress-related digestive issues, possibly due to the brain’s impact on autonomic nervous system regulation.
Absolutely. Traditional antidepressants often come with concerns for new mothers, such as side effects or the potential impact on breastfeeding. TMS is a drug-free alternative that has shown promising results in alleviating postpartum depression without affecting lactation or causing systemic side effects.
Yes! While primarily used for mood disorders, TMS is being explored for other conditions like PTSD, OCD, chronic pain, ADHD, and even cognitive decline in early Alzheimer’s. Ongoing research reveals new applications, making TMS an exciting frontier in neuroscience.
