Lighthouse Psychiatry is pleased to announce a new and innovative offering around transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). During the daily TMS sessions, we will be incorporating behavioral activation with TMS to increase the individual’s response rates and improve treatment outcome.
Since the early use of TMS back in the mid-1980s, transcranial magnetic stimulation has largely been used as a standalone tool for treating depression, OCD, PTSD, and many other mental health conditions. Recent studies have shown that pairing TMS with personalized psychotherapy has provided more positive and quicker results.
Lighthouse TMS treatment is now offered in combination with behavioral activation sessions. It has been shown that TMS effects are dependent on the state the brain is in when receiving the treatment. For that reason, combining other psychotherapy treatments during TMS, such as talk therapy and behavioral activation, may improve the outcomes of the sessions when leveraged together, especially in cases of PTSD and trauma.
At Lighthouse Psychiatry, we are excited to be able to utilize the latest innovations in science to build a personalized treatment for your mental health care. This is one approach of customization of TMS treatment that distinguishes us from other providers of TMS. Our truly personalized approach yields a more positive outcome and quicker results. Everything we do is to help maximize brain optimization and brain health.
