Scottsdale TMS Treatment Team

Scottsdale TMS depression and anxiety treatment team is comprised of independently licensed, inter-disciplinary staff dedicated to helping clients heal their mind and body.

Upon admission, all clients meet with our addiction treatment experts to establish their medical history, identify any mental health issues, and understand personal motivations. Armed with an in-depth analysis, our treatment directors are able to develop a highly personalized treatment plan to help clients achieve long-term success.

While in TMS Treatment, clients receive expert care as well as the option for regularly schedule individual therapy sessions with licensed therapists in accordance to their personalized treatment plan. Shortly after the first appointment, clients are paired with a dedicated case manager to assist with scheduling and therapy session and begin to develop their long-term care program.
