The Nexus Group - Squirrel Hill

At its Pittsburgh location in Pennsylvania, The Nexus Group - Squirrel Hill combines psychiatric medication management and psychotherapy with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and Spravato for depression that has not responded to standard medications. Their clinicians treat anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and related mood, behavioral, and sleep conditions, including ADHD in children and adults. The practice welcomes LGBTQIA+ patients, with multiple providers who specialize in mental health concerns affecting this community.

Medication Management and Psychotherapy

Psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants review patients' symptoms, medical histories, and previous treatments to develop medication plans and monitor their responses. Clinicians also provide psychotherapy using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic psychotherapy, EMDR, mindfulness-based stress reduction, hypnosis and guided imagery. Their services include functional medicine and neurofeedback. Eligible patients can attend virtual appointments while physically located in Pennsylvania, with at least 1 in-person appointment required annually.

TMS and Spravato for Depression

The Nexus Group offers transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) using Apollo technology for patients whose depression has not responded adequately to medication. Clinicians monitor symptoms throughout the 6 to 9-week course and update patients' existing providers on their progress. The practice also offers Spravato for adults with treatment-resistant depression or depressive symptoms associated with suicidal thoughts or actions. Patients self-administer the nasal spray under clinical supervision and remain for approximately 2 hours of monitoring afterward. Clinicians adjust subsequent treatment frequency based on each patient's response.
