Embracing Life Wellness Center - Miami TMS - Dr. Melissa Fickey is a premier mental health clinic dedicated to providing advanced and compassionate care. Located at 2600 Douglas Rd Suite 711, Coral Gables, FL 33134, our practice is built on a foundation of expertise and a deep commitment to patient well-being. Under the leadership of Dr. Melissa Fickey, our center specializes in innovative treatments, with a core focus on Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy, a non-invasive, FDA-cleared treatment for Major Depressive Disorder and other conditions.
Our mission at the Coral Gables clinic is to offer a beacon of hope for individuals who have not found success with traditional antidepressant medications. We understand the profound impact that mental health challenges can have on every aspect of life, and we are here to provide a scientifically-backed path toward healing and recovery. The environment at our Douglas Road office is carefully designed to be welcoming, private, and comfortable, ensuring that every patient feels safe and supported throughout their treatment journey.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is the cornerstone of our services at this location. TMS therapy uses targeted magnetic pulses to stimulate nerve cells in the brain region associated with mood control. This outpatient procedure is performed in our comfortable treatment rooms right here in Suite 711. Patients remain awake and alert during the sessions, which typically last about 20 minutes, and can drive themselves to and from our Coral Gables center immediately afterward. This convenient and effective treatment is changing lives without the systemic side effects often associated with medication.
While TMS is a primary focus, our approach at 2600 Douglas Rd is holistic. Dr. Fickey and our team provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and personalized treatment planning. We believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. Our goal is to help each individual reclaim their joy, improve their relationships, and fully embrace life once again. We are deeply committed to serving the mental wellness needs of our local community from our Coral Gables clinic.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is TMS therapy and how is it performed at your Coral Gables office?
TMS, or Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression. At our clinic at 2600 Douglas Rd Suite 711, you will sit in a comfortable chair while a magnetic coil is gently placed against your scalp. The treatment is administered by our trained staff under Dr. Fickey's supervision, and each session lasts approximately 20 minutes.
2. Do I need a referral to be seen at your wellness center?
While a referral from your primary care physician or therapist can be helpful, it is not a requirement to schedule an evaluation. You can contact our Coral Gables office directly at (305) 686-5150 to book a consultation with Dr. Fickey to determine if our services are right for you.
3. Is TMS treatment covered by insurance at this location?

4. How long does a typical TMS treatment course last?
A typical course of TMS therapy involves sessions five days a week for approximately 4-6 weeks, all conducted here at our office on Douglas Road. The total number of treatments is tailored to each individual's response and is determined by Dr. Fickey based on your personal progress.
5. Can I drive myself to and from my appointments at your clinic?
