The EBC Collaborative Care Model

Dr. Michelle Rad is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist (Psy.D.) experienced in Neuropsychology and Jungian Psychology. She is the founder of Evidence-Based Consultation with over 15 years of specialized experience in clinical diagnostics, trauma-informed care, and complex psychological evaluations. Holding PSYPACT APIT® authorization, she offers interjurisdictional telepsychology services across more than 40 states, bringing expert care directly to clients wherever they are. Dr. Rad’s practice is built on a rigorous three-pillar framework: integrating cutting-edge clinical research, specialized professional expertise, and individual client values to deliver clear, accurate, and deeply compassionate care. Beyond her private practice, she serves as Executive Director of the non profit organization, Self Knowledge Base & Foundation, where she leads community mental health advocacy and educational initiatives aimed at empowering individuals through evidence-based resources

While Dr. Rad is the primary consultant for your care, our practice utilizes a collaborative, evidence-based model to ensure the highest level of service. As a teaching and consulting platform, at times, Dr. Rad is supported by Doctoral level Psychology Residents or similar backgrounds who assist during sessions (with prior client consent). These residents work under Dr. Rad's direct supervision, bringing fresh academic perspectives and assisting with the interactive tools we use to track your progress. Besides that we have a team of dedicated individuals, this team approach allows us to maintain the clinical rigor and 'actual tools' that keep you moving forward.

When you join Evidence-Based Consultation, you aren't just assigning your care to an individual provider—you are gaining a dedicated clinical team working behind the scenes for your growth.

1. Collaborative Case Review & Group Work

Every treatment plan developed at EBC is shaped through structured clinical case consultations. Dr. Rad works closely alongside our licensed clinicians and clinical residents, reviewing client milestones, treatment trajectory, and diagnostic nuances to ensure every client receives multi-layered expert oversight.

2. Vigorously Research-Backed Interventions

Psychological science evolves constantly. Our team continuously surveys the latest peer-reviewed clinical research to integrate proven tools, diagnostic frameworks, and therapeutic protocols into your care.

3. Dynamic Progress Measurement

We don't rely on guesswork or indefinite ruminative talk therapy. We track client progress using objective, evidence-based metrics. Treatment plans are regularly reviewed, evaluated, and adjusted in real time based on your actual data and evolving goals.

4. Empowered Clinical Judgment

Our clinicians and residents combine standardized, research-validated methods with their own nuanced clinical intuition and empathy. This guarantees care that is scientifically sound, highly personalized, and responsive to your unique life context.

Your Privacy & Data Security: BAA-Backed HIPAA Compliance

Your trust, privacy, and peace of mind are the cornerstone of our clinical practice. Mental health care requires absolute confidentiality, which is why EBC adheres to stringent HIPAA privacy standards across all operations and communications:

• Enterprise-Grade Encryption: We utilize secure, HIPAA-compliant enterprise technology—including Google Workspace with signed Business Associate Agreements (BAAs)—to safeguard all client communications, records, and digital appointments.

• Encrypted Telehealth & Portals: Every virtual session, email exchange, and document submission is fully encrypted end-to-end to maintain complete patient privacy across 50+ PsyPact states.

• Strict Security Protocols: From administrative scheduling to direct clinical notes, our internal workflows strictly restrict access solely to your designated care team.
