About Us

“Our mission is to provide a professional & honest approach to health care”

Our Mission

The mission of BrainStim Centers, Inc. is to provide our patients with the most comprehensive care possible. Our team of physicians and specialists is recognized for their compassion, experience, knowledge, and commitment to excellence, which allows us to maintain this standard. We are committed to continuously educating ourselves and our patients, incorporating the best technology in our field of non-invasive neuromodulation. We believe in the ethical practice of medicine by assuring that each person receives quality, individual and personal attention. And we accomplish this standard of excellence through close collaboration between our physicians, staff, patients, and their loved ones. 

Welcome to BrainStim Centers

World-renowned Neurosurgeon Mark Liker, MD, FAANS, FACS, is the founder and CEO of BrainStim Centers, Inc., with clinics in Encino and Valencia, California.

Dr. Liker expects the highest standard of care and equipment not only in his private practice but in his TMS and MeRT Clinics as well. 

As a neurosurgeon, I recognize that the accuracy of my equipment means the difference between an effective and an ineffective treatment. Our patients rely on this as well. MeRT, or Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy, and Nextstim or Navigated TMS, both offer innovative, non-invasive options to target critical brain pathways associated with a variety of neurological issues.”

She then earned her medical degree as well as her Ph.D. in Neuropharmacology from George Washington University School of Medicine, completing her residency training in Neurological Surgery at the George Washington University Hospital in Washington, D.C. in 2005.

Previously in private practice in suburban Maryland, Dr. Mooney has dedicated herself to academic research. Over the course of her career, she has led several neuroscience research projects funded by the National Institutes of Health and authored numerous peer-reviewed articles. 

Now, Dr. Mooney has brought her years of expertise to BrainStim Centers as our Director of Research. 

Our Clinics

With offices in Valencia and Calabasas, California, our team of TMS/MeRT experts uses the Nexstim SmartFocus TMS system and Magventure MeRT technology. These systems offer advanced features such as 3D brain imaging and deliver the same precise brain navigation used by neurosurgeons while planning brain surgery.

Our team applies this technology to identify and treat underactive brain areas with no need for surgery. This non-surgical and innovative approach can offer relief to those experiencing mental health disorders and is proving to have far-reaching benefits. The procedure is gentle and targeted.

At BrainStim Centers, we approach each patient’s condition with expertise and compassion. Our team will work one on one with you to develop a treatment plan for your optimal brain health.
