General Psychiatric Care | TMS and Ketamine for Treatment-Resistant Depression

 

Heal your emotional pain

We provide expert psychiatric care to address your mental health needs. Our clinicians treat individuals struggling with anxiety, bipolar disorder, childhood trauma, cognitive impairment, dementia, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), schizophrenia, and treatment-resistant depression (TRD).

If you suffer from any of these conditions, we would like to help.

We provide pharmacological management and psychotherapy. And we are the only psychiatric practice in Bergen County to offer both NeuroStar Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and SPRAVATO™ S-Ketamine nasal spray, two cutting-edge therapies developed specifically for treatment-resistant depression (TRD).

Let’s work together.

Battle your treatment-resistant depression

Our specialty is treatment-resistant depression (also called drug-resistant depression). If you have sought help for depression but have not made progress with standard treatments — like antidepressants — we have proven alternatives.

In fact, we are the only psychiatrists in Bergen County who provide both Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Ketamine nasal spray therapies.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)

TMS is an FDA-approved outpatient therapy. It is non-invasive (no sedation, incision, or IV) and has none of the side effects of antidepressants.

The TMS treatments are administered here in our office. You recline comfortably in a specially designed chair while a magnetic coil delivers short pulses that stimulate your cerebral cortex. By affecting neurotransmission in specific brain regions, these pulses can have a positive effect on your mood.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation has helped thousands of people with treatment-resistant depression.

Ketamine Nasal Spray Therapy

Ketamine is an FDA-approved prescription nasal spray. It is used in combination with an oral antidepressant. The brand of Ketamine we use is called SPRAVATO™ — in fact, we are a certified SPRAVATO™ treatment center.

You can administer Ketamine to yourself right here in our office, under our supervision. The Ketamine therapy regimen is typically twice a week for a month, then once a week for another month, then once every one or two weeks.

In clinical trials, adults with Major Depression who had not responded to conventional antidepressants experienced a significant reduction in their symptoms with SPRAVATO™ after just four weeks.

Our doctors are recognized for excellence

“(TMS) was a total life-altering experience. After the treatment, and ever since, I have never felt that emotionally painful, chemical depression descend on me...My life has gotten back on track....I am truly grateful for Dr. Zisu, his wonderful staff and TMS.”
— T.P.
“Toward the end of the six week (treatment), I experienced a total lifting of anxiety and depression, and an exhilarating awareness that TMS had freed me from my debilitating illness.”
— R.M.
“I am writing to let you know how thrilled I am with the results of the TMS therapy provided to my daughter…After four weeks of treatment, she felt little improvement, and I was beginning to lose hope. During the fifth week, however, she began to improve a bit each day, and by the end of the sixth week, her depression had lifted. Today (she) has returned to the person she used to be before the depression took hold of her…I scarcely recognize this joyful, caring, motivated, and optimistic young woman!”
