Participants will then undergo a baseline functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scan at the Brown MRI Research Facility. This will be followed by 10 days of cTBS (5 sessions daily) to the rOFC during which symptoms and adverse effects will be monitored daily using a standardized checklist. At the end of day 5, participants will be asked to repeat some of the self-report clinical symptom measures included in the baseline clinical assessment. At the end of the cTBS protocol, participants will repeat a full clinical assessment, obtain an endpoint fMRI scan, and complete an acceptability questionnaire. Follow-up clinical assessments will be completed at 1-month and 3-months post-treatment either in person or virtually to assess the durability of responses.

Receive 50 sessions of a type of TMS called continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) over the course of two weeks.\n2.
