Doctoral Trainee Program
Meet Our Doctoral Trainees
Each year, Dr. Hogan and Dr. Hannani welcome doctoral students, pre-doctoral interns, and post-doctoral fellows to join us and learn. through practice. We ensure our trainees are highly skilled in assessment, neurodiversity, and neurodiversity-affirming practices, with a focus in autism and high masking individuals. Dr. Hogan and Dr. Hannani also emphasize a commitment to ensuring accurate and timely diagnoses for individuals that identify as women, non-binary folx, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+. Each client has the opportunity to work with our students in during their assessment sessions, where a trainee and psychologist take a team-based approach during the diagnostic process.

The Clinical Psychology Externship Experience
See what past participants have to say about the Doctoral Trainee Program at Neuron & Rose Psychological Services.
“Externship at N&R was one of the most formative and impactful experiences of my doctoral training. Dr. H and the team do a wonderful job of balancing warmth and care for externs as human beings with top-notch training in neurodiversity-affirming assessment and therapy. That training has opened doors for me that I never would’ve imagined as I’ve progressed through the next phases of my career. I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat!”
“I was truly grateful for the opportunity to be an extern at Neuron & Rose. From the beginning, I felt genuinely supported in my growth as a doctoral extern—not only through thoughtful training and mentorship, but also through the strong sense of community the team created. Neuron & Rose placed real value on connection and collaboration, giving externs meaningful opportunities to engage with and learn from one another. The team and work environment allowed me to thrive by recognizing my strengths while also encouraging me to grow in new ways, always with consistent care and support. I especially appreciated Neuron & Rose’s investment in my learning and development by providing access to resources, books, and conferences that helped me expand my knowledge and stay current in the evolving field of neurodiversity.”
“Wowwwwww Neuron and Rose is truly a gem of a training site. I stayed for three years and honestly never wanted to leave!!! From the very beginning, I felt supported in practicing in a way that felt aligned with who I am. Dr. Hogan and the team are incredibly accommodating to trainees’ needs and learning styles. As a trainee, I was encouraged to bring all of me into the room — my curiosity, my creativity, my sensitivity, and even the parts that were still learning, still wondering, still finding their voice. My quieter parts, too. What makes this space so powerful is that you learn how to honor identity in others because your own identity is being honored in the process. Be prepared to feel seen. Be prepared to feel embraced. Be prepared to be cherished for who you are — not despite your differences, but because of them. I am forever grateful to Dr. Hogan and the entire team for the work they do to support neurodivergent individuals and for the care they extend so intentionally to their trainees. Neuron and Rose will forever be a huge part of the clinician I am today and it will always hold a place in my heart!.<3”
