TMS for prolonged grief after a loss
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study is testing if a treatment called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation, a non-invasive brain stimulation technique) can help people who are struggling with intense, long-lasting grief after losing a loved one. If you have been feeling stuck in your grief for a long time, this might be an option to explore.
