Dr. Liz Angoff returns to dive deeply into the art and structure of feedback sessions with parents. Dr. Liz emphasizes the insight that “feedback begins at intake,” sharing practical strategies for preparing families throughout the evaluation process to avoid surprises during feedback meetings. We discuss common pitfalls, such as withholding diagnostic impressions until the final session, and highlight the value of continuous communication to ensure parents leave empowered and confident. Dr. Liz offers concrete advice, from using visual aids and simplifying language to effectively navigating challenging conversations when parents disagree or resist diagnostic findings. Overall, we explore how practitioners can make feedback sessions more collaborative, therapeutic, and supportive for both children and families.

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Dr. Robyn Miller to explore why every mental health practitioner needs a professional will. After experiencing the loss of her closest colleague and being thrust into managing her practice, Dr. Miller shares stories of clients who discovered their therapist’s death only after weeks of unanswered calls, and others who never learned what happened to years of their records. Through personal experience—including my own recent confrontation with mortality before heart surgery—we discuss practical steps for creating an effective professional will that ensures your clients receive compassionate care during an unexpected transition.

In this episode, I dive into the often-confusing world of Pearson’s Q products—specifically Q-interactive and Q-global. What started as a simple comparison turned into a deeper exploration of the origins of the “Q” branding and the roles these platforms play in private practice. I walk through the key differences in functionality, pricing, and integration (or lack thereof), and share how we use both systems in my own practice. Whether you’re just starting out or trying to streamline your assessment workflow, this episode will help clarify which digital tools are right for you—and why you might actually need both.

In this episode, I dig into the widely discussed New York Times Magazine article, “Have We Been Thinking About ADHD All Wrong?”—and more specifically, I zoom in on one particularly compelling component: the fluctuating nature of ADHD symptoms over time.

This idea—that ADHD is not a fixed trait but something that ebbs and flows with age and environment—is grounded in research from the MTA study and recent work by Dr. Margaret Sibley. I explore how her findings challenge our assumptions about stability, diagnosis, and treatment, and I share practical takeaways for clinicians, especially those of us doing ADHD evaluations.

If you’ve ever struggled to reconcile inconsistent ADHD data across settings or over time, this episode is for you. We talk about environmental demand, age-related changes, what “remission” actually means, and why our clinical models need to be more flexible. I also provide concrete recommendations for clinical psychologists to rethink assessment, feedback, and follow-up care based on this evolving understanding of ADHD.

In this episode, I sat down with my friend and returning guest, Dr. Tara Vossenkemper, for an honest and wide-ranging conversation about her family’s leap into full-time RV life and how it’s impacted her leadership, practice culture, and mental clarity. We dug deep into the experience of running a group practice remotely, the evolving dynamics of delegating projects vs. tasks, and the personal transformation that can come from letting go—physically and professionally. Tara shared powerful reflections on the visionary-integrator relationship, the emotional labor of leadership, and how EOS continues to shape her team and systems. We also explored what it means to slow down as a driven entrepreneur and how intentional structure (and trust in your people) can help rein in relentless forward momentum.

In today’s episode, Dr. Stephanie Nelson returns to explore the evolution of evaluation reports, emphasizing the need for a shift from traditional diagnostic approaches to a more contextual understanding of clients. We discuss the limitations of relying heavily on diagnoses and numbers and try to broaden the field for consideration of assessment results and recommendations. The conversation also highlights the need for a holistic view of individuals, considering their core beliefs and others factors, while also addressing the practical implications of these insights in assessment and recommendations. As always, Stephanie brings a fresh perspective that will give you lots to think about and potentially change in your practice!
