BIPOC community: “I am a proud Asian-American. I have worked within the Black, indigenous, people of color community for some time and enjoy being able to help individuals work through multiple issues. Having been born and raised in Utah, I understand the complexities that come from being a minority. There has been a stigma with therapy within some cultures and I want to help normalize therapy and its benefits”.
Substance abuse issues: “My background is in substance abuse as I have worked in the field for 8 years, at the beginning of my career. I have worked in outpatient mostly. I have completed substance abuse assessments, worked on treatment plans, and relapse prevention planning as well as a multitude of coping skills to help clients stay sober.”
LGBTQIA+ ally: “I proudly stand with the LGBTQIA+ community through providing support and empathy.”

Alena Ericksen, ACMHC
As Lao Tsu once said, “The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step.” I would be most honored to support you in a warm and compassionate environment as you take this step. Some of my greatest experience has come from being a wife of 26 years, mother of six, and a grandmother to two. I understand the complexities that can unfold in life. The modalities that resonate with me are Person-centered, Solution-focused, CBT, and EMDR. I can also offer hypnosis and nutritional/herbal counseling as alternatives to consider for holistic well-being. I value your investment with therapy & want to help you achieve your goals ASAP.
I have a Bachelor’s in Marriage and Family Studies from BYUI, a Master’s from Liberty University (Virginia), Master’s from The School of Natural Healing (Master Herbalist), certification from The National Guild of Hypnotists, and trained in EMDR. I work with depression, anxiety, trauma, and marriage for those motivated to achieve increased wellness.
Because of my deep love for people, I cannot think of a greater reward than to serve others by helping to minimize human suffering. Walking with someone on their journey in overcoming life’s challenges is one of the greatest privileges another can venture on. I believe in the potential of each individual in achieving their goals for an abundant life.
