Either way

You'll know your cost before anything is booked.

Two ways to pay

Insurance, or self-pay

Most people use insurance for depression. Self-pay covers the protocols it doesn't.

Using insurance

Covered for depression

Covered by most major Vermont insurers. Your share depends on your plan.

  • We check your benefits before you start.
  • Your share is usually a deductible, copay, or coinsurance.
  • We give you the out-of-pocket figure in plain numbers.
  • We handle prior authorization if it's needed.

We confirm your coverage in writing before anything is scheduled.

Paying yourself

Self-pay & off-label

For self-pay, and for protocols insurance generally doesn't cover.

$250–$375 per session, by protocol
  • 10% off if you pay for the full protocol upfront.
  • Anxiety add-ons during a covered course: $50–$100 sliding scale.
  • CareCredit financing available.

A protocol is a course of sessions. We'll give you the full total at your evaluation.

Straight answers

The worries people actually have

THE COST

"What will I actually owe?"

With insurance, your share is a deductible, copay, or coinsurance — and we tell you the figure before you start. Self-pay is $250–$375 a session, 10% off paid upfront.

IF IT ISN'T COVERED

"What if it isn't covered?"

We tell you up front and give you the self-pay cost — so money is never a surprise mid-treatment.

THE TIME

"Is this a big time commitment?"

A standard course runs several weeks. If that's hard to fit in, our accelerated 6-day protocol condenses it right down.

THE TRAVEL

"The commute puts me off."

We're central and walkable at 147 State Street, and accelerated protocols mean fewer trips than a standard course.

How we decide

How we work out if it's right

Send a few details through the form, with no commitment and nothing owed.

We contact your insurer and work out what's covered and what your share would be.

You get a clear estimate of your out-of-pocket cost, in plain language, before any appointment.

Nothing is scheduled and nothing is charged untilyou've seen the cost and chosen to go ahead.


Questions

What people ask before they call

  • Is TMS covered by insurance?

    For depression, yes — it's covered by most major Vermont insurers. Your exact out-of-pocket depends on your plan. We verify your benefits before you start, so there are no surprises.

  • How much is TMS if I pay myself?

    Self-pay is $250–$375 per session depending on the protocol. Pay for the full protocol upfront and you get 10% off. We'll give you the total for your specific course at your evaluation.

  • What about treatment for anxiety or other conditions?

    Protocols outside standard depression treatment are generally off-label and not covered by insurance. For patients already having a covered depression course, we offer add-on treatments — most often for anxiety — on a sliding scale of $50–$100.

  • Do you offer financing?

    Yes. CareCredit is available to spread the cost of self-pay treatment over time. Ask us and we'll point you to it.

  • Will I know my cost before I commit?

    Always. We verify your benefits and give you a clear estimate of your own cost before anything is scheduled. Nothing is booked, and nothing is charged, until you've seen the number and said yes.
