Eric A. Bell Psy.D. What I Do I work with people suffering from sleep disorders, psychiatric & neurologic conditions.  Psychological testing, neurocognitive assessments and appropriate medical assessments are routinely conducted.   Some specific services include: Bariatric Pre-Surgical Psychological Evaluations Neurocognitive/Psychological Evaluations (memory assessments, mood and personality testing) Cognitive-Behavioral Psychotherapy Short-Term Dynamic Therapy Marital or Relationship therapy Evaluation of ADHD/ADD among children and adults Education, Licenses & Certifications BA & MA, West Virginia University (1980, 1986) Psy.D., Illinois School of Professional Psychology (1993) Registered Polysomnographic Technologist, 1983 Licensed Psychologist, Indiana, 1994 Diplomate, American Board of Sleep Medicine, 1998 Health Service Provider in Psychology, 2006 Licensed Psychologist, Texas, 2006	Clinical Trials & Psychopharmacology A post-graduate course in clinical trials management at The University of Chicago was completed a few years ago.  One of my main interests continues to be in the development of new medications for the management of depression, anxiety and insomnia, as well as agents for the treatment of other psychiatric disorders.   Combination treatments (medications & ongoing psychotherapy) are supported (and frequently encouraged) through my practice.  Patients often require pharmacotherapy along with outpatient psychotherapy for maximum benefit.  Medical Psychology People with neurologic diseases (e.g., multiple sclerosis, dementia, seizures, headaches, chronic pain, etc.), fibromyalgia, pulmonary conditions and other medical problems are seen for solution focused counseling, cognitive-behavioral therapy and supportive therapy.   Because depression and anxiety frequently accompany these conditions, time-limited interventions can be helpful in fostering adjustment and coping with disease.
