If you’re considering TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) therapy for depression or OCD in the Denver, Lakewood or Cherry Creek 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.
You have a choice when it comes to where to have your TMS therapy. Here’s why to consider choosing us:

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 our Denver, Lakewood and Cherry Creek, 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.

After years of trial and error with various medications and therapies, I knew it was time to step out and try something new. Although skeptical at first, due to continuous failure with other treatments, I could not be more grateful now for the improvements TMS has made in my life. I struggled with an unbearable amount of anxiety, depression, and mood swings for most of my adult life, but TMS has gradually alleviated all of these. With just a few months of treatment, I have begun to find my happiness and health again. Thank you so much for that.”
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 recommend TMS Center of Colorado for TMS therapy. They provide a comfortable atmosphere with friendly and insightful staff and doctors. The appointment scheduling process was flexible and accommodating, a great help for working with work schedules.
The staff at the TMS Center of Colorado were nothing but kind and accommodating during the duration of my treatment. I was made to feel as comfortable as possible during every session, and never felt like my comfort was secondary to treatment.
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.
The care and service of the technicians was great. They are very caring throughout the treatment.
Found staff & Dr. Richardson exceptionally professional & empathetic. TMS helped me with my depression and feel now, after treatment, more engaged in the world.
I have not felt this good since I was in high school. I can find joy in the simple things in life and am no longer afraid to get out of bed in the morning. I am hopeful about my future.”
TMS might not be a treatment that you have heard of, especially with the most popular treatment of depression, antidepressant medications, being in the common parlance, but if you or a loved one is struggling with depression, you owe it to yourselves to investigate TMS as a first step of treatment. That it is non-invasive and covered by some insurances is a wonder for treating depression: it is exactly the shift in weather that clears the black clouds of depression in one’s mind.
My experience with TMS Center of Colorado was extremely positive. I had full confidence that the doctors and techs are experts in the administration of TMS, and everyone was extremely professional and supportive.
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.”
I had been opposed to TMS initially due to an irrational fear of it impacting my cognitive capacity, but I had become so hopeless from my depression that I needed to try everything available, notwithstanding my fears. I am so grateful that I did! TMS has helped my brain and my depression. What is most noticeable is that my brain has stopped its endless soundtracks of negative, self-defeating thoughts. Thank you for giving me more peace. It was a joy working with everyone at the center, and I will miss it.”
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.”
Ameryst and Lindsey are very kind and competent. Made sure I was safe and comfortable. Plus they are just plain nice.
TMS has been by far the most effective remedy for my treatment resistant depression. The staff at TMS Center of Colorado are all extraordinarily kind and caring through every step of treatment. They are easy to work with, pleasant, friendly, and fully invested in their patients. I can’t recommend TMS Center of Colorado highly enough.
When I first started TMS I was hopeful, but still very skeptical. I’ve struggled with depression for over 20 years and have had some reprieves throughout but have always relied on medication to get me to a baseline where I felt moderately functional. After years of increasing dosage and trying new medications I found myself still falling into deep depressions, I was starting to feel more and more hopeless. I first heard about TMS several years ago and thought there was no way that magnetic stimulation could help where chemicals and years of therapy couldn’t. But as years went by and my depression worsened I began having personal encounters with people who had great success with TMS and finally became open to trying it. I’m so grateful that I ended up at TMS Center of Colorado. At first I was worried because I didn’t notice improvement but a little more than halfway through things started to change. After that point I felt improvements continue as treatment progressed, feelings of hopelessness began to disappear, my energy increased, I became more interested in people and things that I enjoy, my focus improved! I don’t know if the changes are permanent or not, but even if they are relatively short lived it is all worth it to me because I feel better than I ever have.
I found the actual TMS treatments to be helpful but what took the experience to the next level was the kindness and care I received. The team is not only professional but kind, understanding and super encouraging during a very vulnerable time. I am so grateful for my experience.
I came to TMS Center of Colorado for severe depression. Medications and therapy did not work for me for over five years. I am now, after completing dTMS, in a much better place than where I started. I got significantly better results with dTMS than I ever did with medication.”
Thankfully TMS is a treatment that works well for depression and anxiety. It is a real God send for me. It’s life changing. Keep going and getting the treatment, it will pay off. Don’t give up . You can feel a lot better.
