TMS, Ketamine & Therapy, Coordinated Into One Plan
Proven Protocols, Tracked Outcomes
Anxiety isn't just feeling stressed or worried sometimes — for many people, it's a persistent, physical experience that interferes with work, relationships, and daily life. At Houston Mind & Brain, we treat anxiety with a full range of options, from medication and therapy to more advanced treatments like TMS and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, tailored to what's actually driving your symptoms.
Signs Anxiety May Be More Than Everyday Stress
Persistent worry that's hard to control, even when things are going okay
Racing heart, tight chest, or other physical symptoms with no clear medical cause
Avoiding situations, people, or places out of fear or dread
Trouble sleeping or concentrating because your mind won't slow down
Panic attacks — sudden, intense fear with physical symptoms that peak within minutes
Treatment Options
For many patients, the right medication — prescribed and monitored closely — meaningfully reduces anxiety symptoms. We adjust as needed based on how you respond, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
A non-medication option that uses magnetic pulses to target the areas of the brain involved in anxiety and mood regulation — especially worth considering if medications haven't worked well or caused side effects you couldn't tolerate.
For anxiety that hasn't responded to standard treatment, ketamine-based options can offer relief on a different timeline than traditional medications — often faster, and through a different mechanism in the brain.
Frequently Asked Questions
What type of anxiety treatment is TMS?
TMS is a non-invasive, non-medication treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain linked to anxiety and mood. It's typically considered when medication alone hasn't provided enough relief.
Does ketamine treatment work for anxiety?
Yes — ketamine-assisted approaches have shown real benefit for anxiety, particularly for patients who haven't had success with more traditional treatments. Response varies by person, which is why we screen carefully before starting.
How many ketamine treatments for anxiety are typically needed?
This depends on the individual and the specific protocol, which we'll walk you through during your evaluation — there isn't a single fixed number that applies to everyone.
Do I need a referral?
Most patients don't need a referral to schedule with us. Some HMO plans do require one — if yours does, we'll let you know when we verify your insurance, so it's one less thing you have to figure out yourself.
How soon can I be seen?
New patient evaluations are typically available the same week you call.
I have greatly benefited from the services of Houston Mind & Brain. I would encourage anyone seeking neurological or psychiatric treatment to visit them. I have particularly benefited most from their TMS treatment. It has changed my life for the better in so many ways. They have knowledgeable and friendly staff and providers who really do care about your health and because they are a smaller office you really do get that personal connection with the providers and staff. Highly recommend!

We Accept Insurance and Make Care Affordable
We accept most major plans for FDA-cleared treatments (including standard TMS and Spravato). We verify benefits, manage prior authorization, and provide a written estimate before treatment so there are no surprises.
Do you accept Medicaid?
No - we accept Medicare but do not accept Medicaid. If you have questions about coverage, call our team and we’ll help.
Will my insurance cover TMS?
Many commercial plans cover standard TMS when medical-necessity criteria are met. Accelerated/fast-track TMS is often self-pay. We verify benefits and submit prior authorization on your behalf.
What if I’m out of network?
This is uncommon because we are credentialed with most plans. If needed, we can provide a superbill for out-of-network reimbursement.
How do I get a written estimate?
Request a free 20-minute expert call. We’ll run a benefits check, explain likely coverage, and send a written estimate of patient responsibility before any treatment.
Can I get sliding scale pricing for TMS?
Yes. We offer sliding scale pricing for eligible patients and can provide a written cost estimate before treatment. To be considered, we’ll ask for proof of income, such as tax documents.
At this time, sliding scale pricing is not available for Medicare patients or for accelerated TMS protocols.
