Experimental Treatment
Group I: Intermittent theta burst stimulationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
All subjects will receive treatment with intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS). There will be a total of 5 treatments over a 2-week period. All subjects will receive iTBS to the right TGd region. TBS treatment will also be provided for two additional sites within the large-scale brain networks (LSBNs) that is found to contain the greatest number of connectivity anomalies. Total participation will be 10-12 weeks.
