Embracing Life Wellness Center - Miami TMS - Dr. Melissa Fickey
Welcome to Embracing Life Wellness Center, a premier mental health clinic located at 2600 Douglas Rd Suite 711, Coral Gables, FL 33134. Under the expert guidance of Dr. Melissa Fickey, our practice is dedicated to providing advanced, evidence-based psychiatric care to our community. We specialize in innovative treatments for depression and other mental health conditions, offering a beacon of hope and healing right here in our local Coral Gables office. Our mission is to help individuals move beyond their struggles and rediscover a life of purpose, joy, and wellness.
Our central offering is Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy, a groundbreaking, non-invasive treatment that has transformed the landscape of mental health care. TMS is FDA-cleared for Major Depressive Disorder, particularly for patients who have not found satisfactory improvement with traditional antidepressant medications. Unlike other treatments, TMS uses targeted magnetic pulses to gently stimulate nerve cells in the brain regions responsible for mood regulation. This process, conducted in our comfortable Suite 711, is designed to reactivate underactive neural pathways, offering a path to recovery without the systemic side effects often associated with medication. Patients remain awake and alert during the sessions, which last about 20 minutes, and can immediately resume their daily activities afterward.
Dr. Melissa Fickey brings a profound depth of knowledge and a compassionate approach to every patient's journey. She oversees all TMS treatments administered at our Coral Gables location, ensuring each patient receives a personalized treatment plan tailored to their specific needs. Her expertise ensures the highest standard of care, from the initial comprehensive evaluation to the final session. The environment at 2600 Douglas Rd is intentionally designed to be calming and supportive, making each visit a positive step on the road to wellness. We believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms, and we are committed to providing a supportive partnership throughout your healing process.
If you or a loved one is seeking a new approach to mental wellness, we invite you to connect with our local team. Discover how our specialized TMS therapy can make a difference. For more information or to schedule a confidential consultation, please contact us at our Coral Gables clinic.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is TMS therapy and how is it performed at your Coral Gables location?
TMS, or Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression. At our clinic at 2600 Douglas Rd Suite 711, you will sit in a comfortable chair. A magnetic coil is placed gently against your scalp, delivering brief pulses to the brain's prefrontal cortex. The treatment is painless and does not require anesthesia, allowing you to drive yourself to and from your appointments.
2. Do I need a referral to be seen at your wellness center in Coral Gables?
While a referral from your current physician or psychiatrist can be helpful, it is not a requirement to schedule a consultation at our office. Dr. Melissa Fickey conducts comprehensive evaluations for all potential TMS patients at our Suite 711 location to determine if this treatment is the right fit for your specific situation.
3. How long does a typical TMS treatment course last at your clinic?
A typical course of TMS therapy at our Coral Gables clinic involves sessions conducted five days a week for approximately 4 to 6 weeks. Each individual session lasts about 20 minutes. The total duration of your treatment will be determined by your personal response and the treatment plan developed by Dr. Fickey.
