ABOUT THE GUEST
- Rick received his PhD in Clinical Psychology in 2019 after completing his predoctoral internship at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Los Angeles. Although he works with a wide variety of clients, he has gained particular expertise in trauma-focused and mindfulness-based therapies. A former employee of Silicon Valley, Rick's research explores how technology can help lower barriers to effective psychological care, a subject he pursues with both passion and a hearty dose of skepticism. He recently moved to Washington DC to begin his postdoctoral residency.
