Presenter Bio:

Kylie Jean Hoggan, MSW, LCSW, is a clinician-scholar whose work sits at the intersection of clinical social work, youth development, and sport. A Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over five years of post-graduate clinical experience, she specializes in trauma-focused interventions with adolescents and adults, with advanced training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Brainspotting, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). She holds certification as a Clinical Trauma Specialist and graduated summa cum laude from Utah Valley University.

Hoggan’s clinical career has been defined by progressive leadership and a commitment to training the next generation of practitioners. She has served as Executive Director and Clinical Supervisor of a multi-location mental health practice, where she led operations and provided supervision to graduate-level social work interns. She currently serves as a Lecturer in the Family Science Department at Utah Valley University, where she teaches courses in family life education, clinical skills, trauma-informed care, and family policy.

Her doctoral research emerges directly from patterns she observed in clinical practice — young athletes navigating identity crises after injury, deselection, or other involuntary exits from sport with few evidence-informed resources to guide their care. Her capstone project, the Youth Athletic Identity Development and Transition Model (Y-AIDT), offers a clinical framework integrating developmental theory, systematic research, and practice application to support youth athletes ages 5–19 through these critical transitions.

Hoggan has presented on topics including suicide contagion among adolescents and is an invited speaker at the 2026 Utah School Social Work Association Annual Conference. She is a Doctoral Candidate in the Doctor of Social Work program at the University of Kentucky, with an anticipated graduation date of May 2026.
