After beginning a career in Graphic Design, Jerrica decided shortly after that she wanted to pursue a role that involved working with people rather than for people. She began her work in treatment in wilderness therapy, where she fell in love with the therapeutic process of growth and self-discovery through vulnerability and discomfort. She feels passionate about empowering her clients and holding space as they explore what it is they need to create the life they want.
Jerrica is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Utah. After working in wilderness therapy for three years, Jerrica received her Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Utah.

Jerrica has helped people of all ages acknowledge the power of vulnerability and develop healthy communication & boundaries skills. She specializes in connecting how present day struggles, family of origin, experience of shame, attachment, and our relationship with self all play a role in the underlying work. She works from a holistic lens and implements a range of tools, with a focus on the mind-body connection, to effectively address the traumas that can create our darkest parts. She supports her clients in figuring out how to shine light in the places that feel most vulnerable, and find power in compassion.
Jerrica grew up in north New Jersey, where she developed her love of the outdoors, hiking, live music, riding motorcycles and snowboarding. You can often find her in the mountains with her husband, exploring, climbing, and enjoying whatever mountain sport they can. She loves to travel, but when she’s not in the mountains or on the road you can find her at home on the Wasatch front, crafting something with her hands or playing fetch with her fur babies Rogue & Bo. Most recently she is adapting her lifestyle to accommodate the newest member of her family, her daughter.
Sam is a Utah Licensed Clinical Social Worker who received her Masters degree from the University of Utah. She brings a deep appreciation for the outdoors and community connection into her work.
Her path into the mental health field began with years of working seasonal outdoor guiding jobs, eventually leading her to wilderness therapy guiding. From there, she went on to work in a range of treatment settings including inpatient, outpatient, crisis services, residential, and now private practice. In addition to private practice, Sam works with Vail’s Employee Assistance Program, providing accessible therapy to employees at Park City and Canyons. Sam is connected with Somebody’s Thinking about You, a local nonprofit emphasizing the importance of mental health in the action sports community. She serves on the grief support team, supporting individuals through loss and major life transitions.
Sam approaches therapy with a trauma-informed lens, drawing from a range of modalities to support the processing and healing of both acute and complex trauma. She is trained in EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), using bilateral stimulation as a powerful tool to help desensitize and neutralize traumatic memories or negative cognitions. She approaches EMDR as an art form and collaborative process, often integrating Internal Family Systems to help clients access, reconnect with, and strengthen the most authentic parts of themselves.
Originally from North Carolina, Sam developed her love of the outdoors living in the Great Smoky Mountains, home to her favorite place, Bojangles. In her free time, she enjoys spending time with dogs, long coffee walks, desert dwelling with her friends, and finding a new craft to fixate on every few weeks.
Brielles path into the mental health field began in residential treatment centers for adolescents, where she fell in love with the work of holding space for people in their most vulnerable moments. At that point she decided to pursue her masters Degree in social work from the University of Utah before landing in Arizona, where she now calls home with her husband and their dog. She has worked across multiple residential and inpatient hospital settings, experiences that deepened her belief that healing is both possible and deeply personal.
Brielle now works in private practice with clients of all ages, helping people cultivate greater self-worth and reconnect with themselves through a holistic, integrative approach. She draws on the mind-body connection, acceptance-based principles, and parts work to support clients in building a life that feels grounded and authentic. She is also trained in EMDR and Brainspotting, using these powerful modalities to help people process and move through what has felt stuck.
Outside of the therapy room, you can find Brielle curled up with a good mystery novel, on a morning walk with her dog before the Arizona heat makes that an impossible idea, or in a Pilates studio, a practice she came to after 20 years as a dancer. She has a deep love for animals and nature, and brings that same sense of wonder and care into her work with clients every day.
