Imagine what it’s like to have depression impact all areas of your life. Think about carrying around a crippling burden that continues to grow a little more each day. Soon, it starts to manifest in different ways through lingering sadness, increased irritability, and anxious thinking until it completely wears you down.

Depression is consuming, debilitating, and something that an estimated 16.2 million adults in the United States face.

Many of those who reach out for support will turn to therapy and medications for relief. Unfortunately, these therapies can take weeks or months to work, if at all. Imagine waiting weeks between appointments without relief just ‘pushing through’ the symptoms. Finally, you arrive for your next appointment only to find out it’s time to try another medication.

Now, your symptoms are growing worse as hopelessness and frustration continue to build. Why is it so hard to find relief and move forward?

TMS Therapy For Treatment-Resistant Depression

When traditional antidepressants don’t work, or they come with side effects that worsen your symptoms rather than alleviate them, TMS Therapy can offer renewed hope and wellness. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is an FDA-approved treatment that awakens parts of the brain that are inactive. Bespoke Treatment was created to provide patients with alternative treatments for depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health disorders. Our high success rate stems from caring clinicians who adminster individualized treatment plans, compared to other TMS providers who utilize a ‘cookie-cutter’ standard approach.

Personalized Therapy Depression In Los Angeles

At Bespoke Treatment, we specialize in personalized TMS therapy. When creating your therapy protocol, our medical team considers how your mental health disorder manifests in your unique brain functioning. We take into consideration what’s work and what hasn’t to help you move forward and find relief.

Throughout your treatment, we closely monitor your progress and tweak the therapy based on your results. Our independent research has found that our success rate is significantly higher than that of other TMS providers, who often utilize unfocused, “one size fits all” TMS protocols. We have mastered the art of fine tuning protocols to increase effectiveness by changing the duration of treatment, the frequency of stimulation, the number of sessions, and the placement on the head to target different brain areas. 

 

            Is TMS Therapy For Me?

            

Our team will conduct thorough evaluations to determine if TMS therapy is right for you. Whether you are looking for alternative treatments for depression that don’t involve medication, or you’ve tried a number of medications already with little to no results and are looking for scientifically proven therapies for treatment-resistant depression, you may be a good candidate for TMS. However, there are some situations in which TMS therapy isn’t appropriate, including if you have:

  • Metal in or around your head (braces and dental fillings are safe)
  • Pacemakers
  • Implanted cardioverter defibrillators
  • Vagus nerve stimulators
  • Epilepsy

If TMS isn’t right for you, Bespoke Treatment also offers ketamine treatment in Los Angeles and Santa Monica, including infusions and intranasal sprays, and other alternative therapies such as neurofeedback. Reach out for support today!

Reviews

As someone who has struggled with depression for years, I was skeptical about trying alternative treatment options. However, the team at Bespoke Treatment made me feel comfortable and supported throughout the entire process. Not only did their TMS therapy provide significant relief for my depression symptoms, but I also had a positive experience with their ketamine therapy. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to answer all of my questions and address any concerns I had.

I can't recommend this place enough. I had an incredible experience with the treatment I received here. From the administrative staff to the medical team, I really appreciated the outstanding care and attention I received and always felt listened to. There was never any sense of rushing or a "one size fits all" approach, which is sadly very much the norm elsewhere. I highly recommend coming here for the excellent quality of services, professionalism, and warmth that are so important when you're needing mental health treatment.

TMS was amazing for me . I loved my treatments , the doctors, the staff as well as the office itself. Its an amazing place to go for your wellbeing . Everyone is super nice, kind and extremely professional. The place is very easy to get to with available parking. Basically no stress. I felt very comfortable with my technician and all his knowledge about TMS . I also loved Dr. Fahimian . He is extremely educated and knowable in his field. His patience in taking his time to answer all my questions and concerns were highly appreciated.

I was severely depressed when starting treatment. I could not handle meds and had big hopes that TMS would work. It absolutely did wonders for lifting my depression. I have my life back. I have motivation to do things and energy to achieve goals. I really wasn’t sure if the TMS method would work, but it did and I am forever grateful. It even helped with my ruminating thoughts. I’m able to be in the moment and get back into doing things I enjoy. I highly recommend TMS to anyone who needs it.
