Reaching out for help when life keeps on going is the first step to healing.  Hello, my name is Brooke Erickson and I am a clinician serving clients in Utah and Idaho.  I work with adults and adolescents in a teleahealth platform to meet clients where they are at and to offer the flexibility that is needed in your busy lives.  I have a background in child welfare, palliative care, and working with caregivers and parents of children with disabilities.

​

Area of Interest

​

My area of expertise is working with clients for the treatment of grief and loss end-of-life and life transitions, disease prognosis and coping with illness, caregivers for children with disabilities, trauma, anxiety, depression, family disruption/conflict, and AFCC informed therapy.

​

Experience

​

As a Child Welfare Social Worker and Medical Social Worker, I have experience working with individuals across their life span from a strength’s base and solution focused approach. I have worked in trauma centers, palliative care, and pediatrics.   I believe that the client is the expert in their experience and that the client holds intrinsic strengths and skills in working through life/environmental stressors. I assist clients with gaining awareness and insight into their experience of the situation and clients are guided to utilize their strengths and existing expertise.
