In 2023, Katie's Way opened an additional branch of the company called Katie's Way Plus. The aim of Katie's Way Plus is to modernize mental healthcare to provide world class treatment and resiliency skills, as well as to provide counseling to determine best treatment while immediately giving you the tools you need to be successful while navigating day-to-day life. The motto for Katie's Way Plus is "Revolutionizing Mental Healthcare", which they are achieving by unique ways of treating mental health.

Katie’s Way Mental Health Services was started in 2015 with 2 professional providers. As of late 2023, Katie's Way is anticipated to be operating in 15 centers across the Midwest and Western United States (Alaska, Colorado, Kansas, Texas and Washington), with over 130 team members and 5 patents, making Katie's Way one of the largest private practices in the U.S. within 8 years.

Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (dTMS)[edit]

Katie's Way uses a new technology called Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, or dTMS. Deep TMS, a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain. This technology targets deep brain structures associated with various mental health conditions. With a success rate of 45–50%, Deep TMS can significantly improve symptoms, offering hope to those who haven’t responded to traditional treatments. It’s safe, well-tolerated, and performed in an outpatient setting, allowing you to return to your daily activities immediately after each session. In addition to dTMS, Katie's Way Plus offers services like Exposure Therapy, and the Remote 24 program, a monitoring program where patients are tracked from anywhere, by the help of a wearable device to monitor and aid from afar.
