Spravato is covered by several major insurance payers, making it an accessible option for many if you've tried antidepressants and therapy.
Intended for patients who have not found relief from antidepressant drugs, TMS uses magnets to stimulate a specific area of the brain associated with controlling mood– decreasing depressive symptoms after repeated sessions.

All major payers cover TMS treatment for Depression. If you've tried multiple antidepressants and therapy, there's a good chance your insurance covers it.
Sessions are 3-20 minutes and you can drive to and from your appointments. The full course covered by insurance usually takes about 6-8 weeks to complete.
About 79% of patients who complete a full course of TMS show a clinically meaningful response and about 53% experience a remission, meaning their symptoms go away completely.
Spravato (esketamine) is a prescription nasal spray that is used to treat adults with treatment-resistant depression (TRD), or major depressive disorder with suicidal ideation. Unlike oral antidepressants, Spravato is a novel mechanism that acts on different receptors (NMDA vs. serotonin receptors) to treat depression and bring fast relief.

"This place is amazing, from the services that they offer to their staff. I really like how they have helped me and how they have encouraged me in many ways. I highly recommend them especially their TMS. I cannot stress enough how much it has helped me. I can say that I am in control now, not my anxiety and ocd."

"After many failed attempts to treat my depression with anti-depressants, I began to search for alternative treatments. This led me to discover Houston Mind and Brain. My experience at Dr. Cho's practice has been wonderful. Every person on their staff has been amazing, starting with Dr. Cho himself. It's clear they really care about their patients, taking time to explain treatments, ensuring I was comfortable with the process etc. For TMS, Giselle has been phenomenal - she's so supportive and engaging, always making me feel comfortable. Chanda has also been wonderful - very caring, making sure I understand the insurance process and cost structure."
- Patricia M.
"I cannot say enough good things about my experience with this psychiatry office. I’ve received both TMS and Spravato treatments here, and the entire team—Giselle, AJ, Daniella, Chanda, and Dr. Cho—has been absolutely incredible every step of the way. From day one, I felt supported not just clinically, but personally. They took the time to walk me through each part of the treatment process, worked closely with my insurance to minimize stress, and were always responsive and transparent when it came to billing."
