Mike Bodrero has been an integral part of the Logan River Academy team for over 11 years. In 2011, Mike began his career with Logan River Academy as the adventure learning coordinator. In 2017, his dedication to helping teens overcome their mental struggles led him to become a therapist while continuing to serve as Adventure Learning Coordinator. His dual role allowed him to develop his skills as a clinician and hone his leadership skills as he balanced his therapy caseload with leading the adventure learning team. His tenure at LRA and astuteness as a leader made him the perfect candidate to take over the position. Last year, Mike took on the role and has been leading the clinical team with the utmost skill and professionalism.  

Mike grew up in Cache Valley, Utah, and has spent most of his life playing in the mountains of Northern Utah. He earned a bachelor’s degree in Recreation Resource Management from Utah State University and later received a Master of Social Work. “My overarching goal as the Clinical Director at Logan River is for no one ever to feel like they are alone and unsupported in this process,” Mike says. “This includes every one of our students and their families as well as each member of our team. I believe life can be very challenging, and the ability to develop resiliency and skills to manage hard circumstances feels a lot more possible when we have someone with us to do that.”

The Logan River team is optimistic about the future of the program. They continue to adapt and progress in these unprecedented times. About his team and new role, Mike says, “I am very confident and pleased with our team and feel humbled to be in a position to help guide our program. Our clinicians are incredibly empathetic and passionate about their work and demonstrate appropriate boundaries, healthy relationship-building skills, and an appreciation for the responsibilities they face.”
