Did you know?

A standard course is 36 sessions over about four to eight weeks, and with insurance that can mean a copay at each visit. Our accelerated protocol fits treatment into six days, but it’s cash-pay. We’ll compare the real numbers for your situation at your evaluation.

Did you know?

TMS works without medication, so nothing enters your bloodstream and the weight changes, sleep disruption and sexual side effects linked to antidepressants aren’t part of it. There’s no anesthesia, you’re awake throughout, and most people carry on with their normal routine. The most common side effect is a mild headache or scalp discomfort early on.

Likely a good fit if

Antidepressants have helped, but not enough
Side effects have made medication hard to stay on
You'd prefer a non-medication option
You need a treatment with no recovery time

We'd check carefully if

You have a history of seizures or epilepsy
You have metal implants or devices in or near your head
You have a cochlear implant, deep brain stimulator or aneurysm clip
You have any other safety considerations that may affect TMS treatment

State Street TMS offers a comprehensive approach to your health and wellness. As an independent, clinician-owned, and community-based practice, we set ourselves apart by moving beyond standard treatment to deliver highly customized, personalized care in a welcoming, comfortable environment.

What truly distinguishes our practice is the combined, multidisciplinary expertise of Dr. Jada Turco-Khosla, MD, and Dr. Maya Carlet, DNP. Together, we blend integrative psychiatry, specialized medicine, metaphysics, and advanced precision neuro-interventions. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, your evaluation and treatment are tailored to support you as a whole being, with thorough, compassionate guidance at every step of your care.

At age 67, after requiring medicine for depression for about 35 years, I feel blessed to have discovered State Street TMS. I had taken just about every SSRI and SNRI available and ALWAYS at some point I felt like my brain would become reticent to the effect of the drug… I was done with this pharmaceutical merry-go-round and THANKFULLY transcranial magnetic therapy worked!

Every single day I am grateful to all the staff at State Street TMS. The atmosphere felt warm, inviting, and comfortable and the staff always did their best to accommodate any scheduling changes I needed. The best testimonial I received was from a lifetime friend whom I haven't physically seen for 6 years… she told me that my voice sounded “brighter” when we telephoned over the holidays!

You send us a few details through the form. We come back to you to arrange an evaluation and, at the same time, start checking your insurance.

A full clinical evaluation with either Dr. Jada Turco-Khosla, MD Psychiatry or Dr. Maya Carlet, DNP Family Nurse Practitioner.

Your clinician will help determine if TMS is appropriate and safe for you, and we verify your insurance so you know your costs up front.

No pressure, and nothing scheduled until you're ready.

What if TMS isn't right for me?
We'll tell you at your evaluation and talk through other options. We'd rather get you to the right treatment than start one that won't help.
Do I have to stop my medication?
No, in fact we recommend that most people stay on their current medications during treatment. That being said, any change is a decision between you and your prescriber.
I've already tried other treatments. Does that matter?
Not at all. TMS is most often used precisely when medication or other treatments haven't done enough on their own.
Is this the same as ECT?
No. ECT needs general anesthesia and induces a seizure. TMS is done while you're awake, with no anesthetic and no recovery time.
