Developmental Disorder Treatment
Your child works twice as hard as their classmates and still falls behind. The frustration builds for the whole family, and conventional interventions keep managing symptoms without addressing the underlying neural patterns. SeeBeyond Medicine in Scarsdale, NY and Greenwich, CT offers developmental disorder treatment through deep TMS to target the specific brain circuits where development has stalled.
Non-invasive magnetic stimulation reaches cortical regions that medication and behavioral therapy alone cannot modulate directly. Our integrative team builds each protocol around your child's unique neurological profile.

Credentials
Why SeeBeyond Medicine
Dr. Hyun Joon Lee founded SeeBeyond Medicine in 2006 with a single principle: test, don't guess. He holds triple board certification in Family Medicine, Integrative Holistic Medicine, and Obesity Medicine.
SeeBeyond Medicine has achieved a 91% TMS response rate across 30+ conditions. The practice has treated over 20,000 patients across Westchester and Fairfield County since opening nearly two decades ago.
Our Scarsdale, NY office and Greenwich, CT office both offer physician-supervised deep TMS sessions for developmental support.
About This Service
What Is Developmental Disorder Treatment with TMS?
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for developmental disorders is a non-invasive neuromodulation approach that delivers focused magnetic pulses to cortical areas involved in executive function, language processing, and social cognition. Clinical research demonstrates measurable changes in neural plasticity and connectivity in children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental conditions.
Conventional developmental therapies focus on behavioral modification and symptom management. These approaches strengthen compensatory strategies, but they do not directly alter the neural circuits that drive the core deficits.
SeeBeyond Medicine applies deep TMS to stimulate underdeveloped cortical networks. Magnetic pulses activate neurons in the prefrontal, temporal, and parietal regions linked to attention, language, and social processing.
This direct cortical stimulation promotes neuroplasticity in areas where typical developmental wiring did not form as expected. Our physicians integrate TMS into a broader treatment plan that includes functional medicine evaluation and nutritional support.
Conditions Treated
Autism Spectrum Support
Children on the autism spectrum often show reduced connectivity in the medial prefrontal and temporoparietal regions involved in social cognition. Deep TMS targets these circuits to support social awareness and communication development.
Benefits
Non-Invasive and Well-Tolerated
What to Expect
Your Journey
Comprehensive Assessment
Your physician evaluates the patient's developmental history, current functional abilities, and treatment goals to determine TMS candidacy.
Brain Mapping
The first session includes brain mapping to identify the precise treatment location for optimal neural circuit targeting.
Treatment Sessions
Standard protocols involve sessions 5 days per week for 4-6 weeks. Each session lasts 20-40 minutes. The patient sits comfortably throughout — no sedation required.
Progress Monitoring
Regular assessments track cognitive, behavioral, and functional improvements. Your physician adjusts treatment parameters based on response.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions
Is TMS safe for children with developmental disorders in Westchester and Fairfield County?
TMS is non-invasive and does not involve medication or sedation. SeeBeyond Medicine administers all sessions under direct physician supervision at our Scarsdale, NY and Greenwich, CT offices. Side effects are typically limited to mild scalp sensation during the session.
At what age can a child begin TMS treatment?
Eligibility depends on the child's specific condition, developmental stage, and ability to sit comfortably during a session. SeeBeyond Medicine evaluates each patient individually during the initial neurological assessment. Our physicians discuss age-appropriate protocols with families before treatment begins.
How does TMS work alongside behavioral and speech therapy?
TMS activates the cortical regions that behavioral and speech therapists are training through practice-based exercises. By strengthening neural connectivity in these areas, TMS can accelerate the gains children make during their existing therapy sessions.
How long before families see results?
Many families observe improvements in attention, social engagement, or language within the first two to four weeks of treatment. SeeBeyond Medicine uses objective assessments to measure progress at each follow-up visit.

Your Child Deserves More Than Waiting
Even if years of behavioral therapy and medication adjustments have not produced the progress your family hoped for, direct neural stimulation can activate the brain circuits that other interventions cannot reach.
