Professional History

Lois B. Condie, Ph.D., is affiliated with the Department of Neurology at Boston Children’s Hospital Boston / Harvard Medical School, where she conducts developmental neuropsychological assessments, consultations, and research. Her research addresses service provision to vulnerable populations, and her practice is devoted to infants and young children with brain and vascular malformations, cerebral palsy, neurogenetic syndromes, infantile seizures and hemispherectomies, intraventricular hemorrhage, hydrocephalus, autism spectrum disorder, and other brain conditions. She is the developer of the Adapted Developmental Assessment, designed for children who have developmental delay in the setting of motor, auditory, and visual impairments. Dr. Condie is board certified in neuropsychology with the American Board of Pediatric Neuropsychology, and dually board certified in clinical and forensic psychology with the American Board of Professional Psychology.

Approach to Care
Dr. Condie entered the field of psychology out of interest in developmental neuropsychological assessment, entitlement legislation for children with neurodevelopmental disorders, neurodevelopmental services for vulnerable populations internationally, children’s rights in international law, psychological and legal conceptions of medical privacy, and ethics in psychological practice. She has served on and chaired national committees relevant to neuropsychology, ethics and standards of practice, family law, and forensic psychology. She is the author of many journal articles and book chapters. She has taught on an adjunct basis at Boston College, Boston University, Brandeis University, and Harvard University.
