Adult TMS Therapy in Glendale, CA
Breakthrough TMS provides FDA-cleared Deep TMS for adults at our Glendale office — outpatient, non-drug treatment with brief weekday sessions that fit around a work schedule. If you have tried medication, therapy, or other treatments and still do not feel stable, TMS may be the next step.
Treatment That Fits an Adult Life
Adult mental health struggles are often invisible. You can be working, parenting, and showing up, while feeling numb, anxious, exhausted, or stuck inside your own head. TMS is designed to work around that reality: sessions are short — most are about 20 minutes or less — there is no anesthesia and no recovery time, and most patients drive themselves and return to normal activities right after. Treatment happens on weekdays, on a schedule we plan with you up front.

Adult TMS FAQs
Can I keep working during treatment?
Yes — that is one of the main reasons adults choose TMS. Sessions are brief, scheduled on weekdays, and there is no anesthesia or recovery time, so most patients return to work or normal activities right after each visit.
How long does a full course take?
Treatment length varies by condition and protocol. A common structure involves daily weekday sessions over about 4 to 6 weeks, and some treatments take significantly less time. Your first visit is longer because it includes mapping.
Do I need to stop my current medication?
Not necessarily. Many patients continue medications during TMS. We review your medication list during screening and coordinate with your prescribing clinician when appropriate.
