Compassionate Care. Proven Treatment. Real Relief.
Shanti TMS is a locally owned, physician-led clinic specializing in TMS therapy in Portland for adults and adolescents. We offer a safe, non-invasive, FDA-approved approach for people whose depression, anxiety, OCD, or PTSD hasn’t improved with medication or traditional therapy. One location, one consistent team, and a physician at every visit. If you haven’t found lasting relief yet, this may be the path forward you haven’t explored.
Most people who come to us have already tried something. Medication, therapy, sometimes both. What they often haven’t tried is an approach that works directly on the brain activity driving the problem rather than managing symptoms from the outside. TMS does that, and for many people it’s the first thing that’s actually moved the needle.
We keep care simple and consistent. One Portland location, the same physician-led team from your first appointment to your last, and no corporate scheduling or rotating staff. A physician is on-site every day. You’ll know who your care team is, and they’ll know you.
Every program at Shanti TMS starts with a real conversation with a physician about where you are, what you’ve tried, and what might actually help. Care is tailored to each person’s condition, history, and goals. Whether someone is coming in for depression, anxiety, OCD, or another condition, the plan is built around them specifically. That means no borrowed protocols and no guesswork.
Our programs include:
Not sure which program fits your situation? The physician evaluation at our Portland clinic is where that gets sorted out. We take the time to understand your full picture before making any recommendations. Every program starts with a thorough intake, and what comes out of it is tailored specifically for you.
Real Stories. Real Healing.
The most meaningful measure of what we do is what happens after treatment. Patients come to us after trying other options, and many describe the experience here as different from what they expected. The stories below are from real people who went through Portland TMS therapy at our clinic. We’re proud of every one of them.
Focused Care. Local Expertise. True Connection.
A lot of people come to us after being seen at larger clinics where they felt rushed or overlooked. What we offer is different: one location, one consistent team, and a physician on-site at every single visit. Care here is built around the individual, not a schedule. People notice the difference quickly.
We built this clinic with a specific model in mind. One Portland location means no rotating sites and no unfamiliar faces. A physician-led team means medical decisions are made by someone who knows your history. The result is care that’s stable, predictable, and genuinely personal.
You're not walking into a franchise. You're stepping into a clinic where your care is overseen by the same medical team from start to finish. As a local, physician-owned practice, we treat you like a person, not a case file.
No switching sites or juggling staff. Our single Portland location ensures a predictable schedule and a familiar, supportive environment at every visit.
A licensed physician is available on-site for every patient, every day. You're never left wondering who's in charge of your care. You'll have direct access to medical oversight throughout your treatment.
We take time to know you, your story, and your needs. Our team builds real relationships with patients, offering encouragement and emotional support alongside clinically proven TMS therapy.

A New Approach to Treating Depression — Without Medication
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is an FDA-approved, non-invasive treatment that uses gentle magnetic pulses to stimulate brain areas involved in mood regulation. It’s used for depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, and other conditions that haven’t responded to medication or therapy alone. TMS is drug-free, covered by most major insurance plans, and requires no sedation or downtime. Most people return to their normal routine right after each session.
TMS therapy at our Portland clinic is delivered in a calm outpatient setting with physician oversight at every visit. Sessions run 20 to 40 minutes, and most people begin noticing changes within the first few weeks. For anyone who has tried other approaches without enough relief, TMS works differently. It doesn’t just manage symptoms. It targets the brain activity driving them.
Comfort. Privacy. Peace of Mind.

Answers to Your Most Common Questions
We know choosing the right treatment is a big decision. Here are answers to some of the questions we hear most often about TMS therapy.
Antidepressants alter brain chemistry throughout the body, while TMS targets specific neural circuits involved in mood regulation directly. Many people who haven’t responded to medication find TMS reaches what medication couldn’t.
Our TMS treatment programs cover anxiety, OCD, PTSD, chronic pain, addiction, and adolescent depression in addition to major depressive disorder. A physician evaluation determines which protocol fits your specific diagnosis and history.
A standard course runs 4 to 6 weeks with sessions five days a week, each lasting 20 to 40 minutes. Your physician sets the exact number of sessions based on your diagnosis and how you respond.
Most major plans cover TMS for treatment-resistant depression, and coverage for other conditions varies. Our team verifies your benefits and handles prior authorization before treatment begins.
Prior TMS experience doesn’t disqualify you. Protocol, coil placement, and equipment all affect results. Our physician reviews your history carefully to determine whether a different approach may produce better outcomes.
