Our Mental Health Clinic – Who We Are
Advanced Brain + Body Clinic Ketamine TMS is a Minneapolis mental health clinic, founded and run by two leading psychiatrists – Dr. Stephen Manlove, M.D. and Dr. Brian Johns, M.D. Both are University of Minnesota Medical School alum who specialize in difficult-to-treat depression and anxiety. Each patient’s treatment plan is personalized to address the unique medical history, mental health needs and preferences of each patient.
AB+BC offers innovative mental health treatment methods such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and ketamine/ esketamine (Spravato). We believe that alleviating brain disease requires treating the whole person. That is why our team does a thorough medical and psychological assessment before prescribing a treatment plan. Our team of experts will get to the root of the problem and will guide you through your treatment options to get you on a path to a quick, successful recovery.
Our team is committed to making mental healthcare accessible and will work with you to design a treatment plan that will be covered by your insurance provider.

Reporter Andy Steiner covers ketamine’s origin as an anesthetic, its evolution to an FDA-approved treatment for depression and an early study at the Minneapolis VA by Dr. Brian Johns, plus a real patient story from our mental health clinic.
Lisa said she has seen significant change in her husband since he started on his daily ketamine treatment. “He was able to start opening up and he even started suggesting that we do things or talk about things,” she said. “This was a person who has been closed down for many years.”
“Ketamine grows neurons within hours of treatment. It’s like Miracle-Gro for your brain.” And, unlike other antidepressant medications, Johns said, for many people, ketamine works quickly: “Some people can have a single infusion of ketamine and say, ‘I don’t have any suicidal thoughts.’”
