About Us
A World-Class Treatment Experience
Who We Are
Our group of specialists is a multicultural, multilingual team of healthcare experts with diverse educational backgrounds. We are all in agreement on one thing: that the treatment of substance use disorders and mental health issues must be led by the latest neuroscience and psychological research.
Our mission is at the heart of every diagnosis, treatment plan, and clinical decision we make. Our individualized program is based on evidence and expert advice. You will have support every step of the way to ensure you reach your mental wellness goals. Every member of our staff has extensive clinical experience so we can deliver the highest quality care possible.
Our founder, Dr. Antonello Bonci is a well-known expert on mental health and TMS therapy. He has over 35 years of experience researching, diagnosing, and treating a variety of substance use disorders. He brings his extensive knowledge to our programs and patients every day.

Who We Support
The path to mental wellness can be life-changing. It can open the door to a world of possibilities for self-fulfillment, social connection, and overall well-being. We believe that every person should have the opportunity to make this change.
At GIA, we have options for individuals who are uninsured, underinsured or feel they are lacking in the financial resources they require to get help. Our flexible outpatient facilities ensure that a busy schedule or work and home responsibilities are not an obstacle on your path to recovery. Our new telehealth program allows us to serve an even broader range of patients.
Sometimes, the biggest barrier is knowing where to start. Our staff can offer compassionate expert advice and talk you through the next steps.
GIA Chicago supports individuals living with depression, OCD, PTSD, and other mental health issues to take back their lives. Reach out to us today.

What We Offer
At GIA, our visionary program involves a range of cutting-edge, evidence-based approaches to treat mental health issues and promote mental wellness.
Our founder, Dr. Bonci, and his team are pioneers in the use of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) as a treatment for a broad range of mental disorders. TMS involves the non-invasive use of electromagnetic pulses to stimulate certain parts of the brain.
While the FDA and wider medical community have already confirmed the effectiveness and safety of TMS in treating depression and anxiety disorders, Bonci’s seminal work has highlighted its potential as a mental health treatment. At GIA, we offer these ground-breaking treatments to our patients, providing each individual we meet with the best possible support on their journey to mental wellness.
Alongside TMS, we provide a range of other evidence-based treatment approaches, including medical detoxification, psychotherapeutic interventions such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, group therapy, and pharmacotherapy services.
