Your TMS Assessment Is Free—Here’s What to Expect and How It Helps You Decide

The First Step Toward Relief Doesn’t Cost a Thing

Thinking about Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy, but not sure if it’s right for you? You’re not alone—and that’s exactly why Bella Vida TMS offers a free TMS assessment.

This no-cost consultation is your chance to learn about TMS, ask questions, and find out if it’s a good fit for your unique mental health needs. No pressure, no obligations—just professional insight in a supportive setting.

Here’s what happens during your free TMS assessment, and how it can help you take the next step toward real, lasting relief.


What Is a TMS Assessment?

A TMS assessment is a one-on-one consultation with a mental health provider who specializes in treatment-resistant depression and brain-based therapies.

The goal?
To determine whether TMS is medically appropriate for your condition and help you understand your treatment options.

It’s informative, personalized, and 100% free at Bella Vida TMS.


What to Expect During Your Assessment

Whether you visit one of our clinics in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Glendale, or Gilbert, or connect virtually, here’s what your free consultation includes:

✅ 1. A Mental Health History Review

We’ll talk about your current symptoms, past treatments, medications you’ve tried, and how depression is impacting your life.

✅ 2. An Explanation of How TMS Works

We’ll break down how TMS therapy uses magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain involved in mood—and why it helps when medications haven’t.

✅ 3. Personalized Eligibility Screening

We’ll assess whether you meet the criteria for TMS, including a diagnosis of major depressive disorder, past medication attempts, and current health factors.

✅ 4. Insurance and Financing Guidance

Our team will verify your insurance benefits, explain coverage options, and walk you through financing or self-pay plans if needed.

✅ 5. A Safe Space for Questions

You’ll have the opportunity to ask anything—from “Does it hurt?” to “Will I feel different after the first session?”


Why This Assessment Matters

You may be wondering, “Can’t I just call and schedule treatment?”

TMS is a powerful therapy—but it’s also highly individualized and typically requires insurance pre-authorization. That means we need to confirm:

  • That you’re a good clinical fit
  • That your insurer will cover it
  • That you understand how the treatment process works

This free assessment helps you make an informed decision—with the guidance of experts who care.


What If TMS Isn’t Right for Me?

If TMS isn’t the best option based on your history or diagnosis, we won’t leave you hanging. Bella Vida TMS also offers:

  • Spravato® (esketamine) for treatment-resistant depression
  • Referrals for IV or oral ketamine
  • Talk therapy and medication management
  • Support in exploring AHCCCS, Medicare, or private insurance coverage

Whatever your next step looks like, we’ll help you find it.


How to Prepare for Your Free Assessment

You don’t need to bring anything, but if you can, it helps to have:

  • A list of current and past medications
  • Notes about any therapy or psychiatric care
  • Your insurance card (for verification)

Don’t stress—we’re here to make it simple.
