If your teen is exhibiting signs of depression, it’s easy to let fear drive decision making. Don’t let the seriousness of the situation and doubts over what to do next turn into hesitation and inaction. Have a conversation with them, listen, encourage them to take the next step toward relief, and include them in the process of seeking treatment.

Ongoing studies show that TMS is effective in reducing depressive symptoms and improving the overall well-being of teenagers who have not responded to other treatments.
Nearly 10,000 adolescents have been treated with over 300,000 NeuroStar sessions. (Based on 169,000 global patients treated. Data on File, 2024)
For those with treatment-resistant depression, TMS can offer hope for young people living with depression, allowing them to be successful at school, home and in the community.
Ongoing research shows that TMS treatment consistently demonstrates a strong safety and efficacy profile for teenagers and adolescents between the ages of 13 to 21 with reports of minimal side effects in comparison to antidepressants. The most frequent complaint is headache, with less common scalp pain. Overall, the minimal occurrence of side effects along with the high response rate of TMS supports the use of this alternative approach to treat depression in children and adolescents. TMS for adolescents can be highly effective to reduce depressive symptoms and help teens live a healthy and productive life!
