Dr. McGaugh was great. Their office is warm and inviting. They don’t make you feel like a “patient” and they will sit and listen to you. My first visit I was so broken…crying…down and uninterested…I was giving up…but the treatments took affect by week 2…they have helped me to back to me that’s been gone for years from dealing with life and tragedies…I can’t thank them enough🩷
Highly recommend Dr. McGaugh! Very knowledgeable, understanding, and reliable. I love working with a smaller practice because you feel more like family rather than just another patient. Also highly recommend her TMS treatment, as someone who has suffered anxiety most of my life but not a big fan of antidepressants and their side effects, TMS has worked wonders!!
Absolutely love Dr. McGaugh and her lovely office staff. Super kind, understanding, and always ready to try something different or make adjustments to find the right fit. If I could leave more stars I would! If you are in Arkansas looking for a psychiatrist look no further! Helpful and up to date on recent research and methods. Thank you Best Life Psychiatry for helping me live my best life!
I suffer from depression and anxiety and the TMS treatment has been working wonders for me.
My mind is not foggy and I can sleep better.
It’s a cozy little clinic and Doctor McGaugh knows what she’s doing.
I’m looking forward to continuing with the treatment!
NeuroStar uses focused magnetic pulses, similar in strength to an MRI, to gently wake up underactive mood regions in the brain. There are no needles, no anesthesia, and no recovery time.
Step 1
We map the precise treatment spot and set your motor threshold, which takes about 60 to 90 minutes.
Step 2
Daily sessions run 5 days per week for about 6 to 7 weeks, 36 sessions in all, each about 19 minutes. You stay awake the whole time and drive yourself home afterward.
Step 3
Many people notice change by week 2 or 3, with the fullest benefit after completing the course.
NeuroStar is FDA cleared for major depressive disorder and OCD, and it is also used for related conditions. Most patients come to us after two or more antidepressants did not bring enough relief.
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)
Persistent low mood, lost interest, and fatigue. TMS reactivates the mood circuits that medication could not reach.
Learn More
Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD)
Depression that two or more medications did not fix. TMS targets the brain directly, offering a real chance at relief.
Learn More
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Intrusive thoughts and compulsions. TMS, cleared for OCD in 2018, helps quiet the overactive loop.
Learn More
Anxious Depression
Depression carrying heavy anxiety. TMS can ease both the worry and the low mood at once.
