TMS Therapy for Park City Residents
Advanced fMRI-guided TMS treatment for depression and anxiety. Complete your treatment in just 5 days at our Provo clinic.
Advanced TMS Treatment for Park City and Summit County
Living in Park City or the surrounding Summit County area and looking for effective TMS therapy? While there are TMS providers in the greater Salt Lake area, none offer the advanced fMRI-guided protocol available at Cognitive FX in Provo.
Our clinic is about 50 minutes from Park City via I-80 and I-15, making it accessible for a treatment program that takes just 5 days to complete. Many of our patients from mountain communities find that the drive is well worth it for access to Utah's most advanced TMS technology.
Unlike standard TMS that requires daily visits for 4-6 weeks, our accelerated protocol delivers a complete course of treatment in one week. This makes it practical even for patients who live an hour away, and many Park City residents choose to stay in Provo for the week to make the experience even more convenient.
Why Park City Residents Choose Our TMS Protocol
- Complete treatment in 5 days instead of 6 weeks of daily commutes
- fMRI brain scan identifies YOUR exact treatment target
- 86% response rate, 79% remission rate
- Provo offers affordable accommodation options for treatment week
- Utah's only fMRI-guided TMS clinic
The 5-Day Treatment Advantage
For Park City residents, the biggest practical advantage of our accelerated protocol is the time commitment. Consider the alternatives:
Standard TMS (4-6 weeks): You would need to drive approximately 50 minutes each way, five days per week, for over a month. That's potentially 40+ hours of driving over the course of treatment.
Our Accelerated Protocol (5 days): You can complete your entire treatment in one week. Many patients from Park City choose to stay in Provo for the week, turning the treatment into a focused wellness retreat. Others commute daily for just five days.
The accelerated approach isn't just more convenient. Research shows that concentrated treatment can actually be more effective, which is why our protocol achieves response rates of 86% compared to about 50% with standard TMS.
Getting to Our Clinic from Park City

Accommodation Options for Treatment Week
Many Park City patients prefer to stay in Provo during their 5-day treatment rather than commute daily. Provo offers a range of accommodation options that are much more affordable than Park City rates:
Hotels Near Our Clinic
Several hotels are within 5-10 minutes of our clinic, including options near the Riverwoods shopping area and along University Avenue. Rates typically range from $80-150/night.
Extended Stay Options
For a more home-like experience, Provo has extended stay hotels and Airbnb options that offer kitchens and more space, perfect for a week-long treatment stay.
Downtown Provo
Downtown Provo is about 7 minutes from our clinic and offers restaurants, shops, and a charming atmosphere for patients who want to explore between sessions.
Family Accommodations
If a family member is accompanying you, Provo has family-friendly attractions including parks, BYU campus, and easy access to Utah Lake for relaxation between treatment sessions.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your treatment week at Cognitive FX follows a structured schedule designed to deliver the best possible outcomes:
Day 1 (Monday): You'll have an fMRI brain scan in the morning. This scan maps your brain's functional connectivity and identifies the exact location for your TMS treatment. You'll begin TMS sessions in the afternoon.
Days 2-4: Each day includes approximately 10 TMS sessions with breaks between them. Each session is about 10 minutes. Between sessions, you're free to relax, read, use your phone, or step outside. Many patients from out of town use this time to explore Provo or simply rest at their accommodations.
Day 5 (Friday): You'll complete your final sessions and meet with our clinical team to discuss your progress and aftercare plan. You can head back to Park City that evening.
Conditions We Treat
Our fMRI-guided TMS therapy helps patients with:
- Treatment-Resistant Depression: If medications haven't provided adequate relief, TMS offers a different approach.
- Major Depressive Disorder: TMS can be effective as a primary treatment or combined with therapy.
- Anxiety Disorders: Our imaging allows precise targeting of anxiety-related brain circuits.
- Seasonal Depression: Living in a mountain community, you may be familiar with seasonal mood changes. TMS can help address underlying depression patterns.
