"Is therapy right for me? If you are hurting, if there are problems in your life related to fear when you shouldn't be afraid, and sad when you shouldn't feel sad, or have doubts about love capability, maybe it's time to find out. That is one of the purposes of doing a psychiatric evaluation. I have been successfully treating people suffering with anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties for many years."

"We specialize in treating patients with mood disorders using a technique called repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS). Many of our patients have either experienced side-effects from existing anti-depressant medications, or have not responded favorably to anti-depressant medications. Our approach is both free from lasting side-effects and FDA-approved. People usually come in 5 days a week for about 4-6 weeks in order to get the greatest effect. Unlike traditional psychiatry, TMS does not require the use of medication."

As I apply it, conversation can be both unsettling and reassuring, flowing back and forth from one to the other.""
