Do you prescribe benzodiazepines?
Benzodiazepines may occasionally be used in limited circumstances when clinically appropriate. In most cases we emphasize treatments that provide long-term improvement rather than short-term symptom suppression.
​
Advanced Treatments
What is Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)?
TMS is a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic stimulation to regulate brain circuits involved in mood and cognitive function. It is FDA-cleared for depression and OCD and studies show it may be used effectively off-label for many other conditions when clinically appropriate.
