Dr. Yaacov Weinstein
PsychiatristAs both a psychiatrist and psychotherapist, I work with individuals experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties, creating a supportive and collaborative space where people feel genuinely understood. We begin by addressing current symptoms while also exploring the deeper patterns that contribute to emotional distress. I provide care through psychiatric evaluation, psychotherapy, and medication when appropriate, partnering closely with each patient to develop a treatment approach that is thoughtful, individualized, and responsive to their needs.
Through my clinical work, I have seen firsthand how Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) can lead to meaningful improvement for individuals with depression, anxiety, and mood disorders, particularly when traditional treatments have not provided sufficient relief. This FDA-approved, non-invasive therapy delivers targeted brain stimulation without anesthesia or systemic side effects and has helped many patients experience lasting gains in mood, functioning, and overall quality of life. I thoughtfully integrate TMS into care when it offers the strongest path toward recovery and sustained well-being.

We Provide Various Directions
TMS for Depression & Anxiety
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) uses a targeted pulsed magnetic field, similar to what is used in an MRI machine. While the patient is awake and alert, TMS Therapy stimulates areas of the brain that are underacting, causing depression.
During the TMS procedure, the patient wears a padded helmet which activates the magnetic pulses. These repeated magnetic wave pulses reach the areas of the brain which are affected, stimulating the weakened neurotransmitters of the brain affecting depression.
In-office TMS therapy treatment takes 6-19 minutes and is administered 5 days a week for approximately 4-6 weeks.
OCD Treatment
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) uses a targeted pulsed magnetic field, similar to what is used in an MRI machine. While the patient is awake and alert, TMS Therapy stimulates areas of the brain that are underacting, causing anxiety, compulsive and obsessinve thinking and that can result in OCD.
In August 2018, the FDA cleared Deep TMS for treating OCD. Special coils were developed to target the areas in the brain affected by OCD. The Deep TMS for OCD we use at LifeQuality TMS in Brooklyn, NY directly stimulates areas of the brain at greater depths within the brain, doing so safely and efficiently. That is why Deep TMS is the only TMS system that is approved by the FDA for OCD.
Addictions treatment
Substance dependence and abuse is defined as intense cravings and uncontrollable desires to use certain substances. Substance use disorder (SUD) is considered a chronic psychological disorder and is prevalent among adult populations. The disorder can be categorized into 4 distinct categories, alcohol, nicotine, opioid, and illicit drug abuse.
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) uses a targeted pulsed magnetic field, similar to what is used in an MRI machine, while the patient is awake and alert, to gradually increase or decrease activity in areas of the brain that are not properly balanced or connected, which effect cravings, substance dependencies and abuse.
