Actual experiences from folks who found relief from treatment-resistant depression, Major Depressive Disorder, and OCD through TMS therapy.
Ponte Vedra, FL – 32081
“OCD kept me trapped in loops I could not break. TMS turned down the volume. It did not erase everything, but it gave me enough breathing room to actually use the therapy skills I had been learning. That alone changed my life. The drive from Ponte Vedra? Twenty minutes. Completely worth it.”

“I will be honest,I was nervous. But Isaac walked me through every single step. The sessions are short enough to do on my lunch break. By week three, my husband said my eyes looked different. Brighter. That is when I knew something had shifted.”

“I had been on so many medications over the years. The team here actually looked at me,not just my chart. Victoria listened. TMS did not fix everything overnight, but somewhere around week three, I realized I was getting out of bed without that crushing weight on my chest.”

We place a small electromagnetic coil gently against your scalp. The device sends focused magnetic pulses that pass through your skull and stimulate the nerve cells in the brain region that controls mood. You are wide awake just resting comfortably in a chair.
Step 1:
Free consultation + comprehensive assessment
You will meet with our psychiatric team to review your history with treatment-resistant depression or Major Depressive Disorder. We verify your insurance, confirm your coverage, and determine together whether TMS makes clinical sense for your situation.
Most patients receive prior authorization within 24 hours. Your first visit also includes a brain mapping session to identify the precise treatment location,approximately 60–90 minutes total.
Step 2:
Brain mapping + individualized treatment protocol
We map your brain activity to locate the prefrontal cortex,the region most directly involved in depression. Using NeuroStar TMS technology, we calculate your personal motor threshold so the magnetic pulses hit exactly the right nerve cells.
This precision lifts your mood without affecting other brain functions.
Step 3:
Daily sessions for 6–7 weeks · zero downtime
You will visit us five days per week for 6–7 weeks. Each session runs 19–37 minutes depending on your specific clinical needs.
You remain fully awake. Read. Check your phone. Close your eyes and relax. Then you drive yourself home and return to your normal schedule immediately.
Most patients notice the first positive changes by weeks 2 or 3.
TMS therapy holds FDA clearance for Major Depressive Disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Many of our patients have already tried two or more depression medications that did not work,clinicians call this treatment-resistant depression.
FDA-cleared with strong evidence from multiple clinical trials. If antidepressants fail you, TMS provides a medication-free path. No weight gain. No sexual side effects. No cognitive fog.
This diagnosis applies when depression has not improved after two or more adequate medication trials. TMS was developed specifically for this situation. Most insurance plans,including Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, and Optum,cover TMS for treatment-resistant depression.
TMS is also FDA-cleared for OCD. Many Ponte Vedra Beach patients who have not responded to standard OCD treatments find meaningful relief through magnetic stimulation.
