Whole Mind provides compassionate mental health care built around families, guided by science, and designed to make healing accessible for all.
Whole Mind began with a simple but urgent mission: to make high-quality, evidence-based mental health care accessible to individuals and families who need it most. After years of working closely with patients facing serious mental illness, our founder, Dr. Thomas Rayner, recognized a critical gap in Utah—too many people were struggling to find comprehensive psychiatric care in one place. He envisioned a clinic where patients could receive thoughtful, whole-person treatment without barriers, long wait times, or fragmented services.
What started as a single location has grown into a network of clinics across multiple states, serving patients through every stage of life. Today, Whole Mind offers a full spectrum of services, including TMS and Spravato for treatment-resistant depression, medication management, talk therapy, EMDR, family counseling, and child and adolescent psychiatry. Our approach blends advanced, research-backed treatments with compassionate care that prioritizes comfort, clarity, and long-term healing. We don’t just treat symptoms—we work to uncover root causes and support lasting wellness.
At our core, Whole Mind is built on values of accessibility, affordability, and patient-first care. We are proud to be insurance-friendly and family-centered, ensuring that mental health support is realistic, approachable, and sustainable for the people we serve. Every care plan is personalized, collaborative, and designed around each patient’s unique needs and goals.
