If you’re considering TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) therapy for depression or OCD in the Denver area, experience matters.
The doctors and staff at TMS Center of Colorado were the first to offer TMS in Colorado. We were the first to offer Brainsway Deep TMS, a more powerful treatment compared with standard TMS that enables that magnetic pulse to reach deeper into the brain. These deeper (limbic) areas of the brain impact mood regulation and motivation, which are commonly negatively affected in patients who are depressed. We were also the first in Colorado to offer the Accelerated TMS Protocol.
TMS treatment is safe, and FDA cleared to treat depression and/or OCD. It is used off-label to treat other disorders, such as general anxiety disorder, migraines and to assist with smoking cessation.
TMS was initially recommended for patients who were resistant to medication. However, it is now also a preferred option for those who do not wish to be on antidepressants and experience their possible side effects such as weight gain, loss of sleep, lessened libido or fogged thinking.
Accelerated TMS is a more intensive form of TMS therapy, characterized by 10 treatments per day over a 5-day period. Compared to standard TMS, Accelerated TMS achieves a higher remission rate (up to 90% versus up to 78%) in a shorter period of time (1-2 weeks versus 6-8 weeks). This treatment is well tolerated by patients and safe. If you have questions about Accelerated TMS, please call us!
Many TMS treatments are covered by insurance and cost about the same. Why not choose the center that offers the greatest amount of experience and a more powerful Deep TMS system? Doing so can improve your overall results and save you time. For your convenience, we offer the same Brainsway Deep TMS at both our Denver and Lakewood, Colorado offices.
We also offer the expertise of 5 compassionate, caring psychiatrists who are highly experienced in evaluating patients for TMS therapy and supervising their treatment. You can learn more about our doctors by clicking here.
All of the technicians and also Dr. Wirecki have all been very professional, concerned, and you can tell they all care. My experience was overall positive and I would recommend this center to anyone as an alternative option choice for [major depressive disorder] treatment.”
TMS has made some of the most significant differences in my mental health journey! The techs were amazing and Dr. Richardson always proactively checked in with me.
I travelled quite a distance to spend a week at the center. Was pleasantly surprised. Facilities were great, staff outstanding, treatment successful. An excellent investment of time and energy.
I had a very bad experience at another TMS facility. This left me feeling like I had no say in my treatment or comfort. I called the TMS Center of Colorado in Denver soon after my relationship with the other TMS place was terminated. The tech answered and I immediately felt hopeful again. The tech was caring plus listened to me on the phone and went out of their way to give me useful information to help me get started. The staff blew me away. They were polite, professional, and genuinely cared. It was such an improved experience when I was at a very low point. Thank you TMS Center of Colorado!!
This treatment took me from a very bad state of depression and helped me to come out of it and have more joy in my everyday life.
TMS Center of Colorado is an exceptional place. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. Dr. Menninger is also a wonderful doctor. I highly recommend this place!
The TMS Center of Colorado has an amazing staff and is a super comfortable environment! I have been through years of depression treatment as well as many medications, but nothing worked. I turned to TMS as a last hope and it had a huge payout. Part way through my treatment I walked outside and was able to just soak in the moment of feeling the joy of the sun on my face, I hadn’t felt that joy for years. I have much more hope that with some therapy to help adjust to such a large drop in depression, that I will be able to move on and live again as myself for the first time in a long time. Could not recommend this particular center more if I tried.
TMS Center of Colorado provided a really great experience where I, as the patient, always felt heard and understood. They provided a holistic experience by coordinating with outside professionals and individuals. They always provided updated services to make sure I was fully taken care of. I would definitely recommend them for anyone struggling with depression.”
…in a great environment with great results
Found staff & Dr. Richardson exceptionally professional & empathetic. TMS helped me with my depression and feel now, after treatment, more engaged in the world.
Seven months ago I was so depressed I wasn’t able to function. After the six weeks of TMS Therapy I was back to work; I was feeling great; I was enjoying my kids again and I had my life back.”
This treatment definitely helped improve my quality of life. After being in a really rough spot with my depression, this was the final option before resorting to electroshock therapy. Thankfully this treatment has greatly helped with my depression.
Everyone at TMS Center of Colorado was extremely kind and accommodating. I have tried many treatments and the best response so far is with iTBS, so give it a shot!
I feel supported and cared for here. I have had a great experience and will definitely return should I need any more treatments. I also feel wonderful and I’m looking at life with a much more positive and uplifting attitude. Thanks to the entire team.
TMS has been a life saver for me. When I think of how my mental state was just two months ago compared to how it is now, it’s absolutely amazing. Would highly recommend for people who are suffering from depression and anxiety.
I really very much appreciate the techs and Dr. Barucha! Dr. Barucha was very encouraging and kind and I really enjoyed working with her. She truly cared how I was doing and made sure to include me in the decision making when it came to my treatments. I am very grateful to have gotten to work with her.
I was skeptical at first. I gradually got back to feeling human. At Christmas, my family commented it was the best in 20 years. At 7 treatments left, my mother died. I handled it real good and finished my treatment after 3 weeks off. I would recommend TMS for depression to get better.”
I cannot think of much in the way of improving the experience. Found it to be very friendly, personable, and professional. I found everyone here very enjoyable and genuinely interested and concerned in my progress and general well-being. It was a very positive experience and I found the treatment itself to be quite helpful in improving my day to day life.”
