Mental health stigma has long prevented Australians from seeking the help they need. While public awareness has improved, many still struggle silently, wary of judgment or tired of traditional treatments that don’t work for everyone. That’s where Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is making a quiet revolution.
TMS is a non-invasive, drug-free treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain associated with mood regulation. It’s helping people with treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, OCD, and PTSD reclaim their lives—without the side effects often associated with medication.
What’s driving the shift? More Australians are looking for holistic, effective alternatives that don’t rely on long-term pharmaceutical use. For some, antidepressants may not work at all. For others, they’re simply not a sustainable option due to side effects. TMS offers a new path—grounded in science, approved by the TGA, and backed by growing clinical evidence.
By choosing TMS, patients aren’t just prioritizing their health—they’re helping to break the stigma. Every success story contributes to a national conversation where seeking help is seen as strength, not weakness.
At TMS Gold Coast, we see the transformation firsthand. When people feel better without compromising their lifestyle or identity, the shame attached to mental illness begins to fade.
If you or someone you love has been struggling with mental health and traditional treatments haven’t helped, it might be time to explore something new—without fear, and without stigma.

Our Services
We offer specialist outpatient TMS delivered in a supportive, private setting. Our protocols include standard rTMS, bilateral stimulation, theta burst, accelerated theta burst, and double‑cone coil protocols—including those suited for treatment‑resistant OCD.
We guide you through every step of your treatment journey:
-
Screening Session: A brief telephone or face‑to‑face assessment to determine candidacy.
-
Initial Session: Review of medical history, informed consent, and measurement of your Resting Motor Threshold, to determine the correct stimulation intensity.
-
Treatment Phase: Typically involves around 30 sessions over 4 weeks, often followed by a tapering phase of reduced frequency over 2–4 weeks. We monitor your mental state throughout and provide progress reports to your GP or treatment team.
-
Conclusion and Follow‑up: At the end of your treatment cycle, we reassess symptoms and send a comprehensive report to your healthcare providers.
