Ketamine-assisted therapy is an innovative treatment option designed to help individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mood disorders, particularly when traditional treatments have not provided sufficient relief.

Unlike conventional antidepressants that may take weeks to work, ketamine acts on different neural pathways and can promote rapid changes in brain connectivity. When administered in a safe, clinical setting and paired with psychiatric guidance, it can help reduce symptoms and create space for meaningful therapeutic progress.

At Lopez-Larson & Associates, ketamine-assisted therapy is offered as part of a comprehensive, integrative treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.

Working Together in Wellness: Myth vs. Fact

Myth: Depression is simply feeling sad and will resolve on its own.
Fact: Depression is a clinically recognized mood disorder that impacts neurobiology, cognition, and emotional regulation. Evidence based interventions including psychotherapy, lifestyle optimization, TMS, and pharmacotherapy can restore brain function, improve symptoms, and support long term mental wellness.

Curious About How Soon TMS Can Improve Depression? 🧠

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, FDA-approved therapy that can help people with treatment-resistant depression that we offer at our Ohio clinic. Results vary based on factors like symptom severity, treatment consistency, and complementary wellness strategies such as meditation, nutrition, and lifestyle support. Many patients notice improvements in as little as 2 weeks, while others may see full benefits over 6–9 weeks.

Want to understand what to expect from TMS and how it could work for you? Dr. Melissa Lopez-Larson breaks down the science, process, and factors that affect outcomes in our latest blog.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is an innovative, non invasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate specific areas of the brain involved in mood, anxiety, and other mental health conditions. FDA cleared for treatment resistant depression and OCD, TMS is also used for PTSD, chronic pain, and more.

At Lopez Larson & Associates, Dr. Melissa Lopez Larson, Harvard trained psychiatrist, offers TMS as part of a holistic, personalized approach at the Ohio Clinic. Patients relax in a comfortable chair while a magnetic coil targets key brain regions, promoting long lasting changes in neural connections that can help improve mood and overall well being.

TMS may be right for you if you:
✅ Haven’t responded to medications or therapy
✅ Can’t tolerate medication side effects
✅ Prefer a non medication approach
✅ Are seeking an integrative treatment plan that includes sleep, nutrition, and wellness support

Treatment is safe, outpatient, and minimally invasive, with mild side effects that usually improve over time.
