A majority of patients reported noticeable improvements in mood and mental wellness. Faster than waiting on oral antidepressants. Benefits included reduced stress, improved sleep, and a more positive outlook with results lasting 3 months post-treatment.
Even patients without underlying psychiatric conditions experienced lasting mental benefits. Reported improvements included less stress, better focus, more energy, motivation, and higher quality sleep, sustained for at least 3 months.
Patients consistently describe ExoMind as the most comfortable TMS device, especially compared to NeuroStar and Apollo. Average discomfort rating was just 0.2 out of 10, versus 5 out of 10 reported for other devices.
Dr. Dees recently appeared on the SHE MD Podcast to discuss how EXOMIND TMS Therapy is transforming women’s mental wellness.
She shared how this advanced, noninvasive treatment helps women manage anxiety, depression, postpartum mood changes, and perimenopausal shifts—offering a gentle, medication-free approach to emotional balance.
At Luxury Psychiatry Clinic, we’re proud to offer Exomind, a non-surgical, drug-free treatment for depression, OCD, and other mental health conditions in the heart of Chicago’s West Loop. Using gentle magnetic pulses, this advanced form of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS therapy) activates specific areas of the brain linked to emotional regulation, cognitive function, and mental clarity. The result is a cutting-edge, FDA-cleared approach to improving brain health and promoting long-term mental wellness—without the need for medication, anesthesia, or downtime.
As a recipient of the Center of Excellence Award for BTL ExoMind TMS in 2025, Luxury Psychiatry Clinic is committed to providing patients with access to the most advanced mental health treatments available. Exomind represents a promising leap forward in personalized, compassionate care, offering targeted stimulation to enhance neuroplasticity, reduce brain fog, and restore balance to neural pathways. Located near River North, our clinic combines a modern medspa atmosphere with evidence-based treatment options—ensuring each Exomind session is tailored to your unique treatment plan, medical history, and wellness goals.
At Luxury Psychiatry Clinic, Dr. Michelle Dees—our founder and lead psychiatrist—was a principal investigator for the BTL Exomind Mental Wellness Study from 2024 to 2025 and is among only a select few psychiatrists in the United States offering this innovative treatment. Her leadership in advancing Exomind therapy reflects her commitment to pioneering safe, FDA-cleared, and cutting-edge approaches to mental health treatment. Under Dr. Dees’ guidance, each Exomind session is carefully tailored to the patient’s treatment plan, brain health, and wellness goals, ensuring a compassionate and personalized experience that embodies the next generation of mental wellness care in Chicago.
Exomind is a next-generation advancement in Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) that uses finely tuned magnetic pulses to stimulate specific areas of the brain responsible for mood regulation, motivation, and cognitive function. This FDA-cleared, drug-free technology helps strengthen neural pathways and improve brain activity in patients struggling with depression, OCD, and other mental health conditions. By promoting neuroplasticity—the brain’s natural ability to form new connections—Exomind supports greater mental clarity, emotional balance, and overall mental well-being.
Each Exomind treatment session is designed to be comfortable, effective, and non-invasive. There’s no anesthesia, surgery, or downtime, allowing patients to return to their daily activities immediately after treatment.
While Exomind is rooted in the science of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), it represents a significant evolution in how magnetic pulses interact with the brain’s neural pathways. Traditional TMS therapy delivers consistent magnetic stimulation to targeted brain regions associated with mood and emotional regulation. Exomind, on the other hand, refines this process using advanced BTL technology to dynamically adjust stimulation patterns, optimizing results for each patient’s unique brain activity and treatment plan. This makes it a more personalized, efficient, and precise approach to improving mental wellness and cognitive function.
Patients often describe Exomind treatment sessions as more comfortable and efficient than conventional TMS, with reduced downtime and a focus on overall mental clarity and brain health. It’s an ideal option for individuals seeking cutting-edge, FDA-cleared mental health treatment in Chicago that combines the proven benefits of TMS therapy with the latest advancements in neuroplasticity and mental well-being—all under the guidance of Dr. Michelle Dees and the award-winning team at Luxury Psychiatry Clinic.
Exomind is a versatile mental wellness treatment designed to address a wide range of psychiatric and neurological conditions. By gently stimulating targeted regions of the brain associated with mood, motivation, and cognitive control, Exomind helps restore neural balance and strengthen the pathways that support emotional resilience. It’s especially valuable for individuals who haven’t found success with traditional medications, psychotherapy, or other mental health treatments, offering a drug-free, non-surgical alternative that supports the brain’s natural ability to heal and adapt.
Exomind can be used to treat:
At Luxury Psychiatry Clinic, we view Exomind as part of a broader continuum of care that supports total brain health and mental wellness. Whether you’re struggling with emotional regulation, intrusive thoughts, or chronic mental fatigue, this cutting-edge therapy offers a clear path toward recovery. By integrating Exomind into your personalized treatment plan, our team can help you achieve greater mental clarity, lasting relief, and a renewed sense of wellness.
Exomind is designed for individuals seeking a non-invasive, drug-free approach to improving their mental wellness, focus, and emotional resilience. It’s ideal for those navigating treatment-resistant depression, OCD, or chronic stress and burnout, as well as anyone looking to enhance cognitive performance and mental clarity in their daily life. Because Exomind directly targets the areas of the brain involved in motivation, concentration, and emotional regulation, it’s also an excellent choice for high-performing individuals whose mental state is crucial to their success.
This includes athletes, professionals, and creatives who want to sharpen their mental edge while supporting long-term brain health. Whether you’re training for the next level with the Chicago Bulls, Blackhawks, Cubs, or White Sox, or simply striving to reach your personal best, Exomind can help optimize neural pathways that influence reaction time, focus, and recovery. Recently, Dr. Michelle Dees collaborated with performance coach Sean Harris (@trainwithseanharris) to explore how Exomind can complement athletic training by improving mental clarity and emotional regulation.
Exomind works by delivering focused magnetic pulses to specific areas of the brain involved in mood regulation, motivation, and cognitive performance. These gentle, non-invasive pulses help stimulate neural pathways, improve brain activity, and encourage neuroplasticity—the brain’s natural ability to form new, healthier connections. The result is improved mental clarity, better emotional regulation, and a noticeable reduction in symptoms of depression, OCD, and anxiety.
Your journey begins with an in-depth evaluation by Dr. Michelle Dees. During this consultation, we review your medical history, discuss your mental wellness goals, and determine whether Exomind therapy is the right fit for your specific needs. Factors such as metal implants, a history of seizures, or other health conditions are carefully assessed to ensure your safety and eligibility.
Once cleared, you’ll receive a customized treatment plan designed to target the precise brain regions involved in your symptoms. This plan outlines the number of treatment sessions, session duration, and measurable milestones—ensuring your care is evidence-based, personalized, and aligned with your broader mental health treatment goals.
Each Exomind session takes place in one of our modern treatment rooms at our Chicago clinic. You’ll be seated comfortably as our team calibrates the magnetic pulses to your individual brain mapping. The process is completely non-invasive and drug-free, allowing you to relax throughout the procedure.
During the session, gentle magnetic stimulation activates targeted areas of the brain, helping to restore balance in neural pathways linked to mood, focus, and motivation. Many patients describe the sensation as a light tapping on the scalp. There’s no need for anesthesia or recovery—most individuals resume daily activities immediately afterward.
After completing your initial series of treatment sessions, our team continues to monitor your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed. We often integrate Exomind with complementary therapies—such as cryotherapy, infrared sauna, or hyperbaric oxygen therapy—to enhance brain health and promote sustained mental well-being. At Luxury Psychiatry Clinic, our goal is to help you achieve lasting results through compassionate, evidence-driven care.
At Luxury Psychiatry Clinic, Exomind is administered by our licensed professionals, ensuring that your care is tailored specifically to your needs.
