Welcome to Serenity Center for Depression

Serenity Center for Depression is located just 30 minutes from downtown Houston in Sugar Land, Texas. Under the direction of Kimberly Cress, M.D., the depression center strives to tailor each person’s care to help them achieve remission from their mental illness. Treating depression is an art as well as a science. It is important to listen to each person and their history to determine the most effective depression treatment plan.

We at the Serenity Center are excited about now being able to provide Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) for the treatment of depression for our patients. TMS Therapy is one of the most technologically advanced depression treatments available. This non-invasive, outpatient therapy is FDA-approved and has helped thousands of depression patients who have not received adequate results or experienced side effects from traditional antidepressant medications.

The Serenity Center for Depression offers expertise in individualizing a person’s treatment by collaborating with referring physicians or therapists in the greater Houston area.

We are pleased to announce that TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) Therapy was featured on an episode of The Dr. Oz Show. The episode, which aired on Wednesday, March 14th, featured TMS Therapy as a depression treatment option for patients who have not benefited from initial antidepressant medication. Please see Dr. Oz's page on the TMS segment to view the episode.
