Dr. Joshua Ireland is a postdoctoral fellow specializing in psychological assessment and evidence-based therapy for children, adolescents, and adults. He provides cognitive, educational, and social-emotional evaluations, as well as therapeutic support and structured group programs for school-age children focused on social connection, executive functioning, and emotional regulation.

His clinical expertise includes working with neurodiverse individuals - especially those with ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, and gifted or twice-exceptional profiles - as well as students and adults seeking to strengthen performance, emotional resilience, and personal growth.

Since 2019, Dr. Ireland has trained and practiced across a wide range of mental health settings, including inpatient and outpatient care, court-related and foster-care assessments, and community mental-health programs. He currently serves clients at Morrissey-Compton, where he provides in-depth evaluations, therapy, and support services for individuals across the lifespan.

With an academic foundation in both philosophy and psychology, Dr. Ireland brings analytical depth, warmth, and clinical skill to his work. His approach is collaborative and strengths-based, drawing on evidence-based modalities such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

A Bay Area native, he values culturally responsive care and the diversity of the communities he serves. Outside of work, Dr. Ireland is happiest spending time with his family - whether helping his teenage son learn to drive or cheering on teen daughter’s latest interests and adventures and they all love playing games together. He and his wife also share a love of travel and are always planning the next time they'll whisk off to Paris.
