Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) with a pizza stone inside if you have one, or prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the whole wheat pizza dough until it's about 12 inches in diameter for a thin crust. Transfer the dough to a piece of parchment paper for easy handling.
Lightly spray the rolled-out dough with olive oil spray. This will help get a crispy surface.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves. Sprinkle the minced garlic over the dough evenly.
Thinly slice the button, cremini, and portobello mushrooms. In a large skillet, lightly spray with olive oil and sauté the mushrooms over medium heat until they release their moisture and brown slightly, about 5-7 minutes.
Sprinkle the sautéed mushrooms evenly over the dough.
Chop the basil and parsley, and spread them over the mushrooms.
Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the mushrooms and herbs.
Spread the marinara sauce over the mushroom and herb layer evenly.
Sprinkle the reduced-fat mozzarella cheese over the top of the entire pizza.
Carefully transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or prepared baking sheet.
Bake the pizza in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and starting to brown.
Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a couple of minutes, then slice it into six pieces.
Serve warm and enjoy your low-fat gourmet mushroom pizza slice!
