TMS Therapy Program in Portland
TMS therapy was developed in the 1980s by Anthony Barker and a team of physicists using technology that was first invented in the 1800s by Michael Faraday. A magnetic coil is placed on different parts of the client’s head. The coil then sends safe magnetic pulses into the brain for deep brain stimulation. This technique is proven to reduce symptoms of many mental health disorders that are not affected by medication or other types of therapy. TMS therapy is available through inpatient and outpatient treatment programs and typically consists of 20-30, 40-minute sessions.

What to Expect from TMS Therapy and Mental Health Treatment
Here is an example of a typical TMS therapy and Mental health treatment program:
- You will sit in a comfortable chair while the therapist or counselor places a magnetic coil on your head in different areas with proper ear protection. You will begin to feel tapping on your head. Also, you’ll hear clicking noises for a few seconds during the mapping process. Therapists or counselors will adjust the magnetic level until they see your hands and fingers twitching, signaling that it is working.
- Each session can last up to 40 minutes. During this time, you will continue to hear clicking noises and feel a tapping sensation on your forehead.
- There is no anesthesia necessary, and you will be awake and alert during the procedure.
- Clients can drive or return to work or home once the session is complete. Symptoms will begin to diminish within a few weeks of treatment and can disappear completely for some clients.
- TMS therapy will coincide with other behavioral therapy and medication-assisted treatment for a well-rounded treatment experience.
