TMS therapy for sound sensitivity (misophonia)
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests if magnetic brain stimulation (TMS) can reduce the intense anger or fear triggered by certain sounds. It's for adults who feel very distressed by specific noises.

This trial tests if a non-invasive brain stimulation method called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can reduce stubborn auditory hallucinations (hearing voices) in people with schizophrenia who haven't improved enough with medication.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to reduce persistent auditory hallucinations (hearing voices) that haven't improved with antipsychotic medication. It may help people who continue to hear voices despite trying several medications.
This study tests a new way to use magnetic brain stimulation (TMS) to treat anxiety that hasn't improved with other treatments. It aims to see if targeting specific brain connections can reduce anxiety symptoms.
This study tests a brain-stimulation treatment called TMS to see if it improves how people with PTSD unlearn fear and form safer memories. It may help reduce fear responses by targeting specific fear-circuit areas in the brain.
