UAB Medicine continues its commitment to expanding access to high-quality, patient-centered care with the launch of four new clinical services in the fourth quarter of 2025. These new offerings reinforce UAB’s commitment to transformative mental-health care across the region.

Early-Intervention TEAM Clinics

The TEAM Clinics (Treatment, Evaluation and multidisciplinary Approaches for Mental health) focus on early intervention for younger individuals experiencing first episodes of psychosis, mood disorders and substance use disorders.

The first-episode psychosis clinic has been active since 2011, built around a team-based model (adult and child psychiatrists, psychologist, social worker) and emphasizing rapid assessment and frequent follow-up.

Together, the TEAM Clinics span critical age ranges (12–40 for psychosis; 16–30 for mood/substance use) and integrate family education and multidisciplinary care as hallmarks of the model. This expansion underscores UAB’s recognition that many serious mental-illnesses emerge in adolescence or early adulthood, and that early intervention can alter the trajectory of illness.

Patients interested in the TEAM Clinics may call 205-934-7008.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) Clinic

The new TMS-Clinic within the UAB Center for Psychiatric Medicine offers a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment option for individuals with treatment-resistant depression and related disorders.

The clinic applies FDA-approved TMS therapy, using magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in mood-regulation brain regions, with proven efficacy for patients who have not responded to medication or psychotherapy.
