Fermata, Brooklyn, NY
Why Choose Fermata?
Breakthrough mental health treatment in the New York City area:
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. Accelerated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, where remissions from lifelong suffering can happen in the span of a week instead of months, is one such approach.
“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”
