Jacksonville, FL – 32258

Treatment-resistant depression

“I had tried so many medications that I lost count. The team here didn’t just look at my chart,they looked at me. Victoria really listened. TMS didn’t fix everything overnight, but after a few weeks, I realized I was getting out of bed without that heavy weight on my chest.”

Orange Park, FL – 32065

Major depressive disorder

“I was nervous about starting something new, but Isaac walked me through everything. The sessions are short enough to fit into my lunch break. By week three, my husband said he could see a difference in my eyes. That meant everything.”

Ponte Vedra, FL – 32081

Obsessive-compulsive disorder

“OCD had me trapped in loops I couldn’t break. TMS turned down the volume. It didn’t erase my anxiety completely, but it gave me enough space to actually use the coping skills I learned in therapy. That was a game-changer.”

The process

How TMS Therapy Works at Our Jacksonville, FL Clinic

TMS therapy sends magnetic pulses through a coil placed gently against your scalp. Those magnetic fields pass right through your skull to stimulate nerve cells in the brain regions that control mood. The procedure happens in a regular exam chair,no operating room, no anesthesia, no needles.

Step 1:

Free consultation + psychiatric assessment

You will meet with our psychiatric team to go through your history with treatment-resistant depression or Major Depressive Disorder. We verify your insurance benefits, confirm coverage details, and figure out whether TMS therapy makes sense for your situation.

Most patients receive prior authorization within 24 hours. Your first visit includes a brain mapping session to identify the ideal spot for treatment,about 60–90 minutes total.

Step 2:

Brain mapping + your customized treatment plan

We measure your brain activity to pinpoint the prefrontal cortex,the area most directly involved in depression. Using NeuroStar TMS technology, we find your personal motor threshold so magnetic pulses reach exactly the right nerve cells.
This level of precision helps regulate mood without affecting unrelated brain regions.

Step 3:

Daily sessions across 6–7 weeks, no recovery time

You will come in five days per week for 6–7 weeks. Each session runs 19–37 minutes depending on your specific needs.

You stay awake the whole time, sitting comfortably while reading, texting, or scrolling your phone. No anesthesia. No post-procedure fog. You drive yourself home and go right back to your regular schedule.

Most people start noticing positive changes by weeks 2 or 3.

Conditions treated

Conditions We Treat With TMS in Jacksonville

TMS therapy holds FDA clearance for Major Depressive Disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Many patients who come to us have already tried two or more depression medications that didn’t work,what clinicians call treatment-resistant depression.

Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)

FDA-cleared for MDD with strong evidence from multiple clinical trials. If antidepressants have let you down, TMS provides a medication-free alternative. No weight gain, no sexual side effects, no mental sluggishness.

Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD)

This diagnosis applies when depression hasn’t improved after two or more adequate medication trials. TMS therapy was developed specifically for this situation. Most insurance plans,including Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, and Optum,cover TMS for treatment-resistant depression.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

TMS is also FDA-cleared for OCD. Many Jacksonville-area patients who haven’t responded to standard OCD treatments find meaningful relief through magnetic stimulation.

PTSD & Bipolar Depression

Emerging research shows promising results for TMS in PTSD and bipolar depression. Our team stays current with the latest studies and provides individualized evaluations to determine the best approach for each patient.
