I'd been to three other providers who just asked me questions and handed me a prescription. Modern Mentality actually ran cognitive tests and explained exactly what was happening in my brain. Night and day difference.
Is TMS Therapy Right for You?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment that uses targeted magnetic pulses to stimulate mood-regulating brain regions, without systemic medication side effects.
Targets the Root of Depression
Stimulates under-active mood-regulating brain regions using the same magnetic technology as MRI, precisely applied.
No Systemic Side Effects
TMS does not enter your bloodstream. No weight gain, sedation, or the side effects common with antidepressants.
Brief Sessions, No Downtime
Stay awake and alert through short outpatient sessions, then drive yourself home and resume your day immediately.
Covered by Most Insurance
Widely covered for depression after prior medication trials. We handle the entire pre-authorization process for you.

Ongoing Care
Regular follow-ups, outcome monitoring, and adjustments to keep you progressing toward your goals.
Why We Built Modern Mentality
Welcome. After fifteen years in psychiatry, including time as an inpatient attending at a Boston teaching hospital, I kept seeing the same gap: patients deserved faster access, better follow-up, and clinicians who actually measure whether treatment is working.
So we built a practice around objective answers. FDA-cleared attention testing, neurocognitive assessment, GeneSight pharmacogenetic testing to inform prescribing, and validated outcome measures at every visit. If you have spent years cycling through providers who treat symptoms instead of root causes, you are exactly who we built this for.

"For the first time, I feel like someone actually understands what's going on in my brain. The neurocognitive testing gave me answers I've been looking for my entire life. This isn't just another psychiatry office."
"After trying three different medications with my previous provider, GeneSight testing here showed why nothing was working. Within weeks of switching, I felt like myself again. The data-driven approach makes all the difference."
"Having my prescriber and therapist in the same practice, communicating about my care, has been a game-changer. I'm not repeating my story or worrying about mixed signals between providers anymore."
