Lori Jo is a transplant to our great state, having grown up further along the west coast, in Oregon. She came to Utah to attend Brigham Young University, where she earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Recreation Therapy. After graduating, she interned in the Utah State Hospital Children’s Unit, where she realized her passion for working with kids.
Lori Jo went on to earn a Master’s Degree in Social Work from Boise State University, in 2001, and is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 15 years of clinical experience, working with kids and families. Lori Jo has a special interest in helping kids work through depression, anxiety, and other mood disorders. She also has experience helping parents and kids work through adoption-related issues.
When she’s not at work, she’s probably spending time with her husband and three kids. At any given moment, it’s a good bet she’s cheering one of them from the sidelines of a football or soccer field, hiking one of Utah’s many trails, or heading into the wilderness to camp, ski, snowshoe, or paddle board.

We’ve been going to Families First Pediatrics for almost a year and we have had a wonderful experience. Every nurse, PA, and/or doctor we’ve met has been incredibly helpful, empathetic and caring. The care is always top notch and I never feel rushed during a visit. I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for a pediatric clinic.
