AFG Guidance Center, located in Northfield, Illinois, offers a comprehensive range of mental health services for children, adolescents, and adults. The center is staffed by a multidisciplinary team of experienced psychiatrists and therapists who work collaboratively to provide tailored care for each patient. AFG Guidance Center is particularly noted for its innovative treatments, including Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and SPRAVATO® (esketamine), which are designed to address treatment-resistant depression and other mental health conditions. The TMS therapy offered at AFG is FDA-cleared and provides a non-invasive solution for Major Depressive Disorder, as well as Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder in adults. The center utilizes the NeuroStar TMS system, which has shown impressive clinical results, with a significant percentage of patients experiencing a reduction in depression severity. The treatment is well-tolerated, typically involving daily sessions over a period of four to six weeks, allowing patients to integrate it easily into their daily routines. In addition to TMS, AFG Guidance Center provides SPRAVATO® therapy, which is specifically designed for adults who have not found relief from traditional oral antidepressants. This nasal spray treatment is part of a comprehensive approach to managing depression, often used in conjunction with other medications. The center emphasizes a thorough evaluation process to ensure that each treatment plan is customized to meet the unique needs of the patient. AFG Guidance Center also offers a variety of other mental health services, including individual and family therapy, neurobehavioral therapy, and medication management. Their team is dedicated to providing high-quality care, with flexible scheduling options available for both in-person and telehealth appointments.
