TMS Therapy
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy uses magnetic pulses to treat depression and anxiety disorders. This non-invasive treatment stimulates neural activity in mood-regulating brain regions, offering an alternative to traditional medications with minimal side effects. FDA-approved for treatment-resistant depression, TMS requires no anesthesia and allows immediate return to daily activities.
Neurofeedback
Neurofeedback therapy uses real-time EEG monitoring to help patients regulate brain activity. This personalized treatment trains the brain to overcome anxiety patterns through visual feedback, offering a drug-free solution for mental health conditions. Sessions last 20 minutes with most patients reporting immediate improvements in emotional regulation and cognitive clarity.
Hormone Therapy
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) addresses hormonal imbalances using plant-derived hormones. Pellet therapy delivers customized hormone doses to treat menopausal symptoms, low libido, and mood disorders. This treatment improves energy levels, sleep quality, and emotional stability through subcutaneous pellet implants requiring maintenance every 3-6 months.
Esketamine
Esketamine nasal spray provides rapid relief for treatment-resistant depression and anxiety. This NMDA receptor-targeting medication works within hours rather than weeks, offering hope for severe mental health cases. Administered under medical supervision, it combines with oral antidepressants for sustained symptom management without addictive properties.
IV Hydration
IV hydration therapy delivers essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream for maximum absorption. Customized vitamin drips address dehydration, fatigue, immune support, and athletic recovery needs. Treatments last 30-60 minutes, offering immediate energy boosts, hangover relief, and skin rejuvenation benefits through intravenous nutrient delivery.

Report
Dr. Claudia is an incredibly helpful and caring psychiatrist. She quickly eased some recent anxiety I've had, especially relating to the covid lockdowns. A real pro who doesn't just prescribe away her patients, she really listens and brings safe, natural healing. Highly recommend TMS Health and Wellness for anyone around Orange County struggling with depression or anxiety!
