Patients typically start with a diagnostic interview. Dr. Joseph Boland provides psychological testing for children, adolescents and adults. Patients come to Dr. Joseph Boland for treatment because he does much more than just listen to their problems. Dr. Boland's compassionate, yet firm, approach has helped thousands of patients lead more happy and productive lives. He provides clear, precise feedback and instructions on how to correct their problems. Most patients choose to audiotape their sessions so they can listen to the sessions again at home and take notes. Skills are developed by completing exercises between sessions. Dr. Boland does not believe in endless therapy that costs you a fortune. His educational and skills building approach teaches patients the skills they need so they quickly no longer need psychotherapy. With child behavioral problems, AD/HD, and school problems, Dr. Boland teaches parents specifically how to correct the behavior. Dr. Boland specializes in teaching self-discipline and self-control to impulsive children. Parents learn how to make their children talk respectfully, follow directions, be responsible, and be honest. With couples, Dr. Boland teaches communication skills and effective conflict resolutions skills. Improving intimacy is a common goal. Both partners are seen as part of the solution and given suggestions for improving the relationship.

Just read this review. I saw Dr. Boland for help with my son who had been diagnosed with ADHD, Apergers and Bipolar. Dr. Boland would never tell a parent they are "bad" parents. He does give specific feedback as to what parenting approaches are most effective. He explained that discipline can be very effective, even when a child has the diagnoses mine has. It may take longer and require more patience from the parents. The main thing is that children can always learn to behavior better. None of these diagnoses mean the child can not learn to do better and consistent discipline is important. Dr. Boland can really help parents who are not overly defensive and insist on blaming all their child's behavior problems on the diagnosis. I was open to Dr. Boland's feedback and he helped me be a really good parent. My son is doing great.
