Bringing an Innovative Approach to Psychiatry

Bringing an Innovative Approach to Psychiatry

Fermata is the name of a musical notation that indicates a rest should be paused beyond its natural duration. We believe in stopping help that has not been helpful, pausing, and approaching individuals with mental illness from new perspectives with innovative approaches. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, where remissions from lifelong suffering can happen in the span of a week instead of months, is one such approach. We encourage you to reflect on what embracing a fermata could look like for you and make space for one in your life.
