I’ve made significant progress with Dr. Boland. He is concerned and encouraging. He is also an active listener and provides candid and purposeful feedback. He told me in the first session that I could develop the skills I needed to overcome my depression and anxiety, and likely without long-term therapy or medication. I have to admit I was skeptical. However, Dr. Boland has an approach that is very different from what I had experienced with other psychologists I had visited before I met Dr. Boland. As I learned and practiced the skills he taught, the depression and anxiety lifted. Dr. Boland is dedicated to his patients and he has a genuine interest in helping people reach emotional stability and happiness. I would highly recommend Dr. Boland. more

Best Psychologist in Town 3/23/2011

Dr. Boland is direct and to the point. He is the most intelligent man I have ever met and he has the solution to every problem. Sometimes feedback is hard to hear and you can either be defensive and reject it or listen carefully and grow. My previous experiences have been with therapist that just listened but did not give any helpful feedback. Dr. Boland tells it like it is and if you listen without being defensive, he makes great sense and has great ideas and solutions. CBT taught me how to understand and get rid of my depression and anxiety without medication. more

  • 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.
