Understanding TMS Therapy for Depression and Anxiety | Episode 62 with Jourdan Generes

Описание: Jourdan Generes is the CEO of NeuroJust, an interventional mental health clinic offering transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) therapy. We talk about what TMS actually is, how it targets the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex to calm an overactive fight-or-flight system 🧠, and why NeuroJust focuses solely on this noninvasive treatment. Jourdan breaks down who benefits most (depression and anxiety, with adjunct use for OCD and smoking cessation), typical outcomes (remission rates and significant improvement 📈), safety and contraindications, and practicals like insurance coverage—including Medicaid—and the standard 36-session, 10–20 minute treatment schedule at their Metairie and Baton Rouge clinics.

We also cover why NeuroJust partners with outside psychiatrists and therapists rather than doing med management or talk therapy in-house, new access for adolescents 15+, and what patients can expect during and after a full course of TMS. If you’re a parent, caregiver, or clinician exploring effective, evidence-based options beyond medication alone, this conversation offers a clear, jargon-free overview of TMS and how to get started.
