Conditions We Treat

MeRT® uses a personalized EEG to map each patient’s unique brain pattern, then guides gentle magnetic stimulation to areas where activity is out of sync. It’s a different way of thinking about neurological and mental health care, focused on brain patterns rather than brain chemistry alone.

Autism Spectrum Disorder

The Detroit metro area is home to one of Michigan's largest communities of families seeking advanced, non-pharmaceutical options for autism. MeRT is a personalized, non-invasive treatment that many families pursue alongside ABA, speech therapy, and other supports. It's designed to address the specific brainwave patterns associated with autism rather than treating symptoms in isolation.

Depression & Treatment-Resistant Depression

For patients who haven't found relief through medication or talk therapy, MeRT offers a personalized, EEG-guided approach tailored to each patient's individual brain activity, available as a private-pay treatment. We also provide FDA-cleared rTMS for depression, which is covered by most major insurance plans, including TRICARE.

TBI, Concussion & Sports Head Injuries

From high school athletes to first responders to retired professionals, head injuries don't always heal the way we expect. Lingering symptoms — brain fog, headaches, mood changes, sleep disruption — can persist long after the initial injury. MeRT is designed to identify and address the abnormal brain patterns that often follow TBI and concussion, offering a path forward when "wait and see" hasn't worked.

We Also Treat...

PTSD

A non-medication path for veterans, first responders, and anyone whose past experiences are still shaping the present.

Anxiety

Personalized treatment for the persistent worry, restlessness, and physical tension that don't respond to medication alone.

Sleep Disorders

For patients whose sleep won't reset—often a downstream signal of deeper neurological patterns worth addressing directly.

Chronic Pain

A non-opioid approach for pain that has persisted despite other treatments, addressing the brain's role in pain processing.
