Brain Stimulation for Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (cTBS) to treat Generalized Anxiety Disorder. You will receive navigated stimulation sessions, and no surgery or medication is used.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder by at least two psychiatrists.
- You are between 18 and 60 years old.
- You are right-handed.
- You have more than 5 years of education.
- You do not have a pacemaker, cochlear implant, metal implants, or other metal in your body that would prevent MRI or brain stimulation.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a type of brain stimulation called cTBS to see if it can help reduce anxiety in people with generalized anxiety disorder. The treatment targets two brain areas linked to mood and worry.
This study tests a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment called continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) for adults with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). It aims to see if this treatment can reduce anxiety symptoms and possibly offer a new option for people who have not responded well to other treatments.
This study tests whether a brain stimulation treatment (rTMS) can reduce anxiety symptoms in older adults with generalized anxiety disorder. It may help people whose anxiety is still present despite current treatment.
This study tests whether a brain stimulation technique called TMS can help people with depression, anxiety, OCD, or schizophrenia. It aims to find better ways to target the treatment for each person's specific needs.
This study tests whether a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation method called high-precision transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can reduce anxiety. It is designed for people with moderate to severe anxiety who are not currently on other treatments.
This study tests a new type of brain stimulation (called cTBS, guided by MRI brain imaging) to treat generalized anxiety disorder. Researchers hope it may reduce anxiety symptoms when combined with standard anxiety treatment.
