Meet the Owners

In January of 2024, Dr. Tracine Smoot, the visionary and founder of Psychological Solutions (PSI), opted to sell the company following nearly two decades of ownership.

 

Rest assured, even though Dr. Smoot has relinquished ownership of PSI, she remains an integral part of the team, continuing to provide her exceptional testing services as a senior psychologist within the group.

 

Let's extend our gratitude to Dr. Smoot for her years of dedication and selfless service as the guiding force behind this remarkable group!

“We are so excited to have this opportunity to carry on the great work that Tracine and team have provided to so many individuals and families. Effective treatment and recovery begins with a clear understanding of the challenges and strengths of each individual. We are proud to be a part of this team dedicated to providing the very best assessments to inform the care plan for each student. We look forward to working with you all.”

- Liz & Roland Griffith

About the Founder, Dr. Tracine Smoot

Psychological Solutions was founded in 2005 because I wanted to provide the very best psychological evaluations for students in wilderness and residential treatment programs. I saw firsthand how difficult it is for parents to send their child to out-of-home care and recognized that most students in these settings need a different type of psychological evaluation. These students need comprehensive, holistic evaluations that “go beyond diagnosis” to tell the story of why they went to a treatment program and how they can best move forward. To meet this goal, I designed an integrated team model in which highly qualified psychologists work together to provide the assessment services that we believe are so important.


"After 20 years of building PSI to become a standard of excellence for psychological evaluations, I made the difficult decision to sell. Fortunately,

for me, I still get to be on the PSI team and work with these professionals that I respect and love so much. After receiving several offers, I chose Liz and Roland Griffith to be the new owners of PSI because of their high ethical standards and commitment to the human side of PSI. They plan to maintain the PSI model and keep the PSI team intact, as they recognize that this team, and serving individuals and families, are what PSI is all about. The high-quality services that you are used to will continue." - Dr. Tracine Smoot
