TMS is a non-invasive brain stimulation process that triggers neural activity with magnetic pulses.
This treatment is FDA-approved and is extremely effective for treatment-resistant depression. Side effects of TMS can include feeling a knocking sensation or scalp sensitivity during treatment, as well as mild headache that subsides within a few hours.
Where our standard TMS treatment is for 30 sessions over a 6-week period, the accelerated protocol involves 10 treatments a day for 5 days (“Accelerated TMS”).
FDA cleared.
Ketamine is a relatively new alternative medication for depression that is extremely safe and can cause lasting changes in brain chemistry that lead to long-term relief from depression symptoms.
Antidepressants are daily medications commonly prescribed to treat depression. They alter the levels and interactions of neurotransmitter chemicals within the brain that control mood and stress. There are many different types of antidepressants, such as SSRIs, SNRIs, TCAs, NASSAs, and SARIs. Sometimes antipsychotics are also prescribed to treat depression. Antidepressant and antipsychotics must be taken daily, often come with various side effects, and are not effective for all individuals.
Everyone experiences sadness from time to time. Depression, however, is a more serious condition. Over 16 million Americans experience depression each year, making it one of the most common mental disorders. It is the leading cause of disability worldwide and greatly contributes to the global burden of disease.
Eterne Wellness provides expert diagnoses and highly personalized treatment plans for individuals with depression. We offer a number of alternative therapy options, including transcranial magnetic stimulation, ketamine treatment, and neurofeedback, in addition to more traditional psychotherapies. Our mental health professionals work with each client to develop a treatment plan that suits their individual needs and goals.
Originally used as a pediatric anesthetic, ketamine has shown to be an effective drug for fighting depression. Ketamine works differently in your brain than other antidepressant medications. Conventional antidepressants such as SSRIs have to build up in your system to change your brain chemistry.
TMS therapy is a noninvasive procedure that uses magnetic pulses—similar to those of an MRI machine—to awaken parts of the brain underactive in people who suffer from depression.
We offer medication management, IV treatments, and more to feel like yourself again and get on the right track.
At Eterne Wellness, our dedicated team is committed to guiding you on a journey towards healing and liberation from the weight of depression.

OCD is believed to result from a combination of genetic, neurological, and environmental factors. Imbalances in serotonin and overactivity in certain brain circuits play a major role.
OCD symptoms include unwanted thoughts, repetitive behaviors, fear of contamination or harm, excessive doubt, and mental rituals such as counting or praying.
While OCD is a chronic condition, it is highly treatable. Many individuals achieve lasting relief with a combination of therapy and medication.
A licensed clinician will evaluate your symptoms, thought patterns, and behaviors to determine if they meet the diagnostic criteria for OCD.
If traditional antidepressants haven’t worked, TMS or ketamine therapy may be effective alternatives. Our providers will review all available options to create a plan that works best for you.
