Brief Summary: In this research study the investigators aim to learn more about the therapeutic effects of a newer form of non-invasive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), called theta burst simulation (TBS), on refractory depression in Autism Spectrum Conditions.
Detailed Description: The overarching goal of this study is to examine treatment effects and elucidate the physiological biomarkers of a newer form of non-invasive brain stimulation therapy on refractory depression in a sample of participants with ASC (autism spectrum condition).

Aim 1: To compare the efficacy of 30-sessions of bilateral (BL) versus unilateral (UL) Theta Burst Stimulation to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) on depression severity in youth/young adults with ASC and co-occurring refractory major depressive disorder (MDD).

Aim 2: To identify physiological markers of target engagement of successful response to either UL or BL on depression severity in youth with ASC and co-occurring refractory MDD. These physiological markers include high-resolution electroencephalography (EEG) markers, social eye-tracking, and handgrip strength (collected via NIH toolbox's motor toolbox domain).

Aim 3: To identify feasibility of BL and UL in participants with ASC including systematic measures of safety and tolerability. This includes clinical measures such as rate of hospitalization and medication use.
