Why Choose Elevate Psychiatry

What to Expect from TMS Therapy

Safe, simple, and painless.

TMS therapy uses the same technology as an MRI scan. During a TMS treatment session, you will experience brief, painless pulses that feel like gentle taps on your forehead.

A Four-Step Journey

Our TMS therapy program in Miami is designed to guide you through a positive treatment experience. The process typically involves four key steps:

Initial Consultation: Comprehensive evaluation with one of our experienced specialists
Personalized Treatment Plan: Tailored therapy schedule based on your unique needs
TMS Sessions: Typically 5–20-minute sessions, five times a week for 4–6 weeks (ok)
Ongoing Support: Regular progress reviews and adjustments to your care plan as needed

Real Results, Backed by Science

TMS is trusted as a treatment for many disorders:

Major depressive disorder
OCD
PTSD
Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)
attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
Panic disorder
Bipolar disorder
Stroke
Smoking cessation

Clinical research shows promise in TMS therapy in helping individuals live more confident and fulfilling lives:

After 708 participants were given TMS treatment for six weeks, at least 50% experienced improvement in mood symptoms. These symptoms were measured using depression rating scales.
About 50-60% of people with depression (who haven’t received benefits from medications in the past) reported a clinically positive response from TMS treatment. Specifically, one-third of participants reported a full remission. While there can be a high recurrence rate, TMS is still worth considering.
TMS therapy conducted over the prefrontal cortex or mortar cortex can decrease pain in healthy adults or those with chronic pain. Researchers are optimistic about TMS therapy’s role in psychiatric conditions.

We’ve had the privilege of helping our clients enjoy these promising outcomes and benefits themselves:

Ryan Walker is simply great at his job. It's exceedingly rare to find people and businesses in South Florida that are easy to deal with and can actually do their jobs correctly. I did a ton of due diligence prior to making my appointment here, and I'm 100% satisfied with the experience in every way.

I have been a patient for over a year now and I am beyond grateful to have found them. The staff is always very helpful and are great with communication. I have been treating with Polina since coming to elevate psychiatry and she has truly helped change my life around.
S.R.
Dr. Bhatia and his crew of professionals are extremely people centered. They take the time to listen to what you have to say and make intelligent responses to help you through whatever you are going through at the time. I also took their TMS treatment and it changed my life completely (for the better, of course).

Your Questions About TMS, Answered

FAQs

Finding the answers to your questions can help you feel more relaxed about TMS therapy. This state-of-the-art treatment has helped many patients in incredible ways. Here are some frequently asked questions we receive about TMS treatments.

When is TMS treatment a good choice?

We recommend TMS when other therapies aren’t as effective as you want or need. Some people simply don’t respond to antidepressant medications or psychotherapy as much as desired, sometimes because of genetic factors.

TMS has helped many people resistant to traditional treatments for depression, schizophrenia, PTSD, and other mental health disorders. It may also help people with substance abuse addictions to have greater success in breaking free from cravings.

Is TMS covered by insurance?

Most insurance plans now recognize the value and effectiveness of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) for treating certain conditions, especially when other treatments have not been effective. Coverage varies widely, so you must check with your insurance provider. They may require documentation of your medical history and previous treatments to determine eligibility for coverage.

How effective is TMS treatment?

Every patient is different when it comes to treatment for mental health disorders. Some people experience more prominent changes than others. According to the latest research, nearly 80% of people who have treatment-resistant depression experience significant benefits with TMS.

How much time does TMS treatment take?

Each TMS session lasts 3-20 minutes. The specific amount of time needed depends on physical factors (the intensity of stimulation required) and the type of disorder for which you need treatment.

When receiving treatment, you must visit our clinic five days a week. The treatment lasts between four and six weeks, depending on the type and severity of your disorder.

TMS is non-invasive, so there are no needles, anesthesia, or sedatives to worry about. You can be in and out of our clinic relatively quickly. TMS doesn’t make you drowsy, and you can immediately return to work or other activities.

When will I notice the results of TMS therapy treatment?

Everyone has a different physical and emotional makeup. Some people notice results more quickly than others. On average, patients should start to see results after two to four weeks of treatment.

How long do the effects of TMS therapy last?

Many people experience significant relief from symptoms for many months after finishing treatment. Their symptoms may disappear entirely during that time. Other people have noticed an improvement in symptoms for years.

The average time the effects of TMS therapy last is about one year. Sometimes, follow-up sessions are scheduled every few months to help maintain results. We customize your treatment to match your needs so it’s as effective as possible.

How should I prepare for treatment?

Many patients take items to help them feel comfortable during their TMS sessions. This can include headphones to help you relax with music during TMS therapy or even take a nap. We encourage it if it helps you relax.

If you’ve experienced headaches before from TMS, you may want to take along a bottle of water and some over-the-counter pain medication. You’ll need to remove any hearing aids, hair clips, or facial piercings when you arrive.

Are there any people who shouldn’t receive this treatment?

Patients who have metal objects embedded in their heads or faces can’t receive TMS treatment.

The strong magnetic pulses used during therapy could cause metal objects to move or heat up.
