Spravato Treatment
Spravato (esketamine) nasal spray treats treatment-resistant depression in adults. Administered twice weekly for four weeks then tapered, requiring 2-3 hours monitoring post-treatment. Patients must have transportation due to temporary impairment. Combines with oral antidepressants for rapid symptom relief.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
Non-invasive TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate brain regions affecting depression. 20-minute sessions target the prefrontal cortex with BrainsWay's H-coil technology. No anesthesia required, allowing immediate return to daily activities. FDA-approved for major depressive disorder.
Telepsychiatry Services
Telehealth appointments provide medication management, therapy, and psychiatric evaluations remotely. Benefits include reduced travel barriers, improved access to specialists, and equivalent confidentiality to in-person visits. Particularly effective for patients with mobility limitations or severe anxiety.

Services include school evaluations, family therapy, and age-appropriate psychotherapeutic interventions tailored to developmental needs.
Addiction Treatment
