About Rick
Rick Clements brings 25 years of clinical experience to his work as a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). He believes people grow when they form healthier connections and act more honestly in their lives. Rick writes plainly and listens closely to understand what feels out of balance for each person.
He starts by getting to know what matters most to the client and which problems feel most urgent. That could be stress, anxiety, depression, mood swings, relationship struggles, or problems with sleep and anger.
How Rick works
He also helps with parenting strain, grief, addiction concerns, ADHD, and questions about life purpose and career direction. Sessions focus on identifying practical steps a person can try, along with support while they practice new ways of coping. Rick checks progress regularly and adjusts strategies when needed.
He aims to give tools that can be used between sessions, not just talked about in the office. Rick has worked with many people over a long career, including those dealing with trauma, attachment issues, adoption and foster care concerns, fatherhood issues, and hospice or end-of-life matters.
He also addresses family of origin problems, guilt and shame, and midlife or young adult transitions. People who see him can expect straightforward conversation, clear goals, and steady follow-up. He offers services from Utah and communicates in English.
International clients may be supported through his online options.

Online support options
Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Rick uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and clearer relationships. One common approach emphasizes identifying patterns that keep problems active and practicing new skills to change those patterns; this helps with anxiety, anger, and relationship strain. Another approach concentrates on processing difficult experiences and building coping skills for trauma, grief, and abuse-related symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit the individual's goals, values, and daily life. That process includes trying techniques, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan together when something isn't working.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversations and nonverbal cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text can support quick check-ins or ongoing coaching, and messaging helps people keep momentum between sessions. These options aim to fit therapy into busy schedules and different practical needs.
