Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)

At Veracity Psychology, we understand that depression and other mental health conditions can be challenging—especially when traditional treatments have not provided the relief you deserve. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment that offers hope for individuals struggling with treatment-resistant depression and certain other mental health conditions.

Why patients choose TMS

The TMS Advantage

TMS reaches the exact brain regions involved in mood, without surgery, sedation, or a single pill.

Non‑Invasive

No surgery, anesthesia, or sedation is needed — making it one of the safest treatments available.

Targeted Therapy

Unlike medications, TMS never travels through the bloodstream — it focuses directly on the brain regions that need help.

Stay Awake & Alert

You remain fully awake during treatment, so you can drive yourself to and from every session.

The science, simply explained

How Does TMS Work?

TMS — Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation — uses MRI‑strength magnetic energy to target the exact brain regions that regulate mood.

It stimulates the areas of the brain that control mood and are less active in people with depression, encouraging brain cells to release the same neurotransmitters that antidepressants aim to boost.

TMS also enhances the brain's connectivity, helping these regions work together and return to a more normal, functional state — often providing significant relief even for patients who haven't found success with other treatments.

How Does TMS Work?

TMS uses gentle magnetic pulses to stimulate specific areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. In individuals with depression, these regions may be underactive. By stimulating these areas, TMS can help restore healthy brain activity and improve symptoms over time.

Unlike medications, TMS targets the brain directly and does not circulate throughout the body, which means it avoids many of the common side effects associated with antidepressant medications.

What Can TMS Treat?

TMS is FDA-cleared for:

  • Major Depressive Disorder (Depression)
  • Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
  • Smoking Cessation

Research also continues to explore its effectiveness for conditions such as anxiety, PTSD, and chronic pain.

TMS treatments are performed in our office and typically last between 20–30 minutes per session.

During treatment:

  • You remain awake and alert.
  • No anesthesia or sedation is required.
  • You can drive yourself to and from appointments.
  • Most patients return to work, school, or daily activities immediately afterward.

A typical treatment course consists of five sessions per week for several weeks, though your provider will create a personalized treatment plan based on your needs.

Yes. TMS has been extensively studied and is considered a safe, well-tolerated treatment. The most common side effects are mild and may include:

  • Temporary scalp discomfort
  • Mild headache
  • Tingling sensation at the treatment site

Serious side effects are rare.

You may be a candidate for TMS if you:

  • Have depression that has not improved with medication
  • Have experienced unwanted side effects from antidepressants
  • Prefer a non-medication treatment option
  • Are seeking additional support as part of a comprehensive mental health treatment plan
