I cannot count how many times I’ve seen requests for clinical consultation come up in the Testing Psychologist Community and elsewhere. Fortunately, Dr. Kathryn Esquer has made a career out of connecting with others and helping them connect with one another. She is here today talking with me about the research and practice of clinical consultation, from both the consultant’s side and the consultee’s side.
207. Understanding Female Psychopathy w/ Dr. Jason Smith & Dr. Ted Cunliffe
Today’s interview was fascinating. I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Ted Cunliffe and Dr. Jason Smith, two of the co-authors of the book, Understanding Female Offenders. These guys have spent their careers working with- and studying female offenders and share a wealth of information from their own research and elsewhere.
206. Next Level Systems w/ Natasha Vorompiova from Systems Rock
We’ve been talking a lot about systems on the podcast lately. Today I have a true master of systems, Natasha Vorompiova from Systems Rock, to share some of her philosophy and secrets on developing systems in your practice. I really connected with Natasha on our shared love of noticing and eliminating inefficiencies in daily life.
205. The SPECTRA w/ Dr. Justin Sinclair and Dr. Mark Blais
The realm of psychopathology assessment is fascinating to me. Today I’m speaking with the developers of the SPECTRA Indices of Psychopathology, Dr. Mark Blais and Dr. Justin Sinclair, about their work to develop this measure over the last decade or so. They are kind enough to endure my naive questions about the measure and the assessment of psychopathology in general.
204. Admin Support, Email Management, & Imposter Syndrome w/ Uriah Guilford, LMFT
Uriah Guilford, the owner of The Productive Therapist virtual assistant company, joins me again today for another wide-ranging and dynamic conversation.

Dr. Oxalis Jusino has made it her mission to advance the state of assessment in Puerto Rico. She also has an excellent Spanish-language podcast (linked in the show notes) all about conducting good assessments. Join us today as we talk through the ins and outs of testing “on the island.”
202. From Solo to Group Testing Practice w/ Dr. Mandi White-Ajmani
Are you a solo practitioner thinking about making the leap to a group testing practice? That’s where Dr. Mandi White-Ajmani was a few years ago, and she now has a thriving group practice in Brooklyn, New York with both therapists and neuropsychologists on staff. It was such a privilege to sit down with Mandi and talk about her journey from solo to group practice.
201. The Latest Research on ADHD With Dr. Joel Nigg (Replay)
Ever wondered if diet really plays a role in ADHD? What about screen time? Is medication still the best treatment? Dr. Joel Nigg sits down with me today to talk about all of these things and many more. His most recent book presents the state of the literature on all things ADHD, from genes, to brain structure, to sleep, to parenting.
200. Reverse Interview: The Testing Psychologist Journey w/ Dr. Jeremy Sharp
This episode is a little departure from normal…instead of me interviewing someone or monologuing on a business topic, I’ve invited my friend and colleague, Dr. Andres Chou, to interview ME. It’s a true gift to have this broad conversation with Andres.
198. Transitioning from Therapy to Testing
I’ve spoken with so many consulting clients over the last few years who want to transition to an all-testing practice and stop seeing therapy clients altogether. The problem is that it’s REALLY hard to cut down a therapy caseload in many cases. Today’s episode is all about how to do so ethically and practically.
