Rebuild Control, Focus, and Cognitive Stamina with EXOMIND†
Individual brain mapping and adaptive stimulation aimed at reducing cue-triggered urges and improving attention, processing speed, and task follow-through.
Addictive patterns and cognitive disorders can share a bottleneck: reduced top-down control over attention, urges, and working memory. People describe powerful cue-triggered cravings, difficulty pausing before acting, mental fatigue, and trouble finishing tasks. EXOMIND applies individualized mapping and precise, noninvasive stimulation intended to nudge cognitive-control and salience networks toward a steadier, more resilient baseline. We coordinate with your existing treatment plan—therapy, medications, recovery programs, and medical care.
EXOMIND at a Glance
Personalized targeting informed by symptoms, sleep/circadian patterns, and history
Awake, noninvasive, drug-free sessions (no anesthesia or recovery downtime)
Typical course: brief weekday sessions over a few weeks with session-by-session tuning
We track clinical outcomes throughout your treatment journey
Who It May Help
- Cue-triggered cravings, impulsive use, or difficulty delaying responses
- Executive dysfunction: distractibility, mental fatigue, slowed processing, task incompletion
- Cognitive changes related to stress, mild TBI, or aging (non-dementia) that affect work or daily life
- Partial response, sensitivity, or preference to avoid additional medication changes
How EXOMIND Works
After a focused intake and mapping session, EXOMIND delivers patterned magnetic pulses to cortical hubs involved in stress regulation and cognitive control. Parameters are adjusted across visits to encourage healthier network connectivity and a steadier autonomic set point.
What to Expect
You remain awake and laying down. Most people feel rhythmic tapping on the scalp; mild, brief sensitivity or headache can occur and typically resolves quickly. Early changes may include improved wind-down at night, fewer spikes in reactivity, and easier recovery after stressors.
Candidacy & Safety
We screen for medical contraindications (e.g., specific metal implants, seizure history). EXOMIND is generally well tolerated. If you use medications or therapy, we can coordinate care; changes are not required to begin unless advised for safety.
Important Information
This page is educational and not a guarantee of benefit. Individual results vary, and risks and uncertainties exist with any medical intervention. All patients complete a thorough evaluation and an informed-consent process reviewing potential benefits, risks, and alternatives.
Before Your Visit
- ✓Track urges/cravings (0–10), triggers, and responses for 1–2 weeks
- ✓Log attention and productivity windows (best/worst times of day) and sleep timing
- ✓Share prior treatments (medications, therapy, recovery programs) and sensitivities
- ✓Choose 2–3 concrete goals (e.g., extend pause before action, finish one key task daily, reduce evening cravings)
Frequently Asked Questions
1When might I notice change?
Over a few weeks, early shifts often look practical: slightly lower urge intensity around known cues, a longer pause before acting, steadier sleep, and easier task initiation. For cognitive concerns, people may notice modest gains in sustained attention, processing speed, or working-memory capacity that build gradually across the series and may consolidate afterward. EXOMIND is adjunctive; we recommend continuing your recovery and medical plans while we monitor progress and pacing.
2How many sessions are typical for EXOMIND?
Courses commonly involve brief weekday sessions over a few weeks. The exact number and schedule are personalized after your mapping and consultation; some patients consider additional sessions if benefits wane.
3Can EXOMIND be combined with my current treatment?
Yes. EXOMIND is non-pharmacologic and can be coordinated with existing medications and psychotherapy. Changes to medication are not required to begin unless advised for safety.
4What side effects are most common?
Mild scalp discomfort or headache can occur and typically resolves on its own or with simple measures. We review safety and comfort strategies during consent.
5How do you select brain targets?
We are able to identify the Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex (DLPFC), based on your unique anatomy, within minutes.
6What if I don't feel progress?
Results will vary. For refractory cases, we suggest a multi-modal approach and will explore your individualized treatment plan for further performance optimization.
7Can I work or drive after sessions?
Most people resume normal activities immediately. If you experience a headache or unusual fatigue, brief rest is recommended before driving.
8How are payments handled?
EXOMIND Santa Monica is a direct-pay practice.
