Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to find alternative treatments for patient's suffering from depression after having a stroke.This study aims to show that accelerated rTMS is a safe, effective,and convenient treatment for patient's suffering from post-stroke depression in the acute to subacute phase. This will be an open label trial and thus all participants will receive the active rTMS intervention.

Depressive Symptoms as Rated by the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale
Depressive symptoms as rated by the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale. Measure of severity of depression -total score of Hamilton Depression Scale ranges from 0 (no depression) to 60 (worst depression possible)
Depressive symptoms will be quantified before the rTMS stimulation protocol
