Treatment Philosophy
"I believe that remission is possible for everyone. My goal is to move beyond symptom management and achieve true healing through advanced technology like TMS. Every patient's brain is unique, and their treatment should be too."
— Katelin Double
Katelin Double's approach to psychiatry is rooted in the understanding that mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, and OCD are medical conditions with neurological underpinnings—not character flaws or signs of weakness. This perspective shapes every aspect of their practice, from the initial consultation through the final maintenance session.
For patients who have tried multiple medications without success, Katelin Double offers TMS as a powerful alternative. Unlike oral medications that affect the entire body and often come with significant side effects, TMS delivers precisely targeted magnetic pulses to the specific brain regions responsible for mood regulation. This means patients can experience relief without the weight gain, sexual dysfunction, or cognitive fog commonly associated with antidepressants.
Katelin Double takes time to understand each patient's complete medical history, previous treatment attempts, and personal goals before recommending TMS. They believe that informed patients are empowered patients, so they thoroughly explain the science behind TMS, what to expect during treatment, and realistic outcomes.
