Psychiatry & Medication

TMS Therapy

TMS therapy can be an effective alternative to medication or invasive treatments, providing fast-acting relief without any long-term side effects.

Spravato®

Spravato® nasal spray can provide quick relief from symptoms of depression and anxiety and improve the overall effectiveness of a treatment plan.

In-Person Care

In-person mental health care can be an essential component of effective mental health treatment. Through our network of outpatient clinics, we offer a range of in-person services, including therapy sessions and psychiatric evaluations. Being physically present with your mental health provider can help build a stronger therapeutic relationship, allowing for deeper insights and more personalized treatment plans. The nonverbal cues and body language that are present in in-person interactions can also be valuable information for therapists and psychiatrists, helping to provide a more complete picture of a patient’s mental state. At New Directions Mental Health, we offer appointments at convenient locations throughout southwestern Pennsylvania.
