Psychopharmacology
Starting medications is an important decision. We will work with you closely to understand and find the right medications to help you. Each individual is unique and sometimes the first or choice of medications does not work optimally. When medications are not working we have access to pharmacogenetic testing that may help clarify your individual metabolic profile which may help explain why certain medications are not working and help guide the choice of further medication trials.

Neurofeedback
Neurofeedback is treatment that helps the brain learn to be more efficient. Neurofeedback has been around for several decades and is used in a number of different applications. It has been helpful in treating anxiety disorder, PTSD, substance use disorders, and performance anxiety.
Spravato
Spravato is a medication-based treatment for Major Depressive Disorder. The medication comes in the form of a nasal inhalant and is administered in the comfort of our offices. This medication (also known as Ketamine) was previously only offered through IV infusion in a hospital or clinical setting. With Spravato we can provide this treatment in our convenient Dedham location. Administering the medication is very quick but each patient is required to remain in our offices for two hours after treatment for monitoring. Patients are also not permitted to drive themselves home after treatment.
dTMS
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is an FDA approved treatment for Major Depressive Disorders and OCD. We offer treatment with the BrainsWay dTMS device.
dTMS involves the application of rapid pulses of magnetic stimulation to the brain in a predefined area of the brain that has been demonstrated to treat depression. Treatment consists of 5 times weekly application of the dTMS for approximately four to five weeks. The BrainsWay device offers a deeper penetration of the magnetic pulse and as a result has been found to have a more rapid onset of response, usually in 20-25 treatments rather than 35 treatments as with other devices currently on the market. Most insurances now cover dTMS but in order to qualify for insurance coverage individuals need to meet several criteria: patients must have attempted treatment with several antidepressants as well as other augmentation strategies, or have been unable to tolerate treatment with antidepressants.
