Services
Ketamine Therapy
Ketamine therapy offers rapid relief for treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, and PTSD through intravenous or intranasal administration. Our psychiatrists personalize dosages and integrate psychotherapy to enhance outcomes. Patients receive six infusions over 2-3 weeks, with ongoing maintenance plans as needed. This FDA-approved anesthetic targets glutamate receptors, promoting neuroplasticity and mood stabilization.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate brain regions linked to depression, offering non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment. Sessions last 20-60 minutes, five days weekly for 4-6 weeks. Ideal for patients seeking alternatives to medication, TMS has minimal side effects and is covered by Medicare and major insurers.
Electroconvulsive Therapy
ECT delivers controlled electrical stimulation to induce therapeutic seizures for severe depression or psychosis. Administered under anesthesia in a private facility, ECT is recommended for acute cases requiring rapid intervention. Our team ensures safety and comfort throughout the process.
Intensive Outpatient Program
Our IOP provides structured therapy for mood and anxiety disorders without hospitalization. Patients attend group sessions, individual counseling, and educational workshops while maintaining home life. Programs are tailored to support recovery and long-term stability.
Botox Treatment
Botox injections target facial muscles linked to negative emotions, reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety. This off-label application disrupts the facial feedback loop, promoting improved mood through neurochemical changes and muscle relaxation.

I had a good experience here even though I was reluctant to get help. I would recommend this place to others.
