Treating Depression in Veterans & Military Families: TRICARE-Covered TMS Therapy at MindBodySoul
Veterans and military families carry a unique and often unseen burden. Years of service, deployments, relocations, trauma exposure, and constant high-stress demands can leave lasting emotional scars. For many TRICARE beneficiaries, Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) becomes a daily battle one that traditional antidepressant medications do not always relieve.
At MindBodySoul Mental Health & Family Practice, we proudly serve TRICARE-covered veterans, active-duty service members, and their families by offering FDA-approved Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy for depression that has not responded to medication.
When Antidepressants Aren’t Enough: A New Path Forward for Veterans
Many veterans struggling with depression have tried multiple medications often for years without lasting relief. Side effects, emotional numbness, fatigue, or worsening symptoms can make daily life even harder. If this sounds familiar, you are not alone.
TMS therapy offers hope when medications have failed.
It is a non-invasive, drug-free treatment that targets the areas of the brain responsible for mood regulation helping restore healthy brain activity without systemic side effects. For veterans who value clarity, resilience, and regaining control of their lives, TMS represents a science-backed breakthrough in depression treatment.
What Is TMS Therapy?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) uses focused magnetic pulses to stimulate underactive areas of the brain linked to depression. Treatments are performed in-office, do not require anesthesia, and allow patients to return to normal activities the same day.
TMS is FDA-approved for Major Depressive Disorder and is especially effective for patients who have not improved with antidepressants.
Key Benefits of TMS for Veterans & Military Families:
- Non-invasive
- drug-free,
- No systemic side effects (weight gain, sexual dysfunction) common with antidepressants
- No downtime
- No anesthesia or sedation needed, allowing immediate return to daily activities, and providing potentially long-lasting relief for treatment-resistant depression
- Preserves focus, alertness, and cognitive clarity
