The department welcomes new psychometrist, Phillip Stinson, M.S.
We are delighted to welcome Phillip Stinson as psychometrist in the department of neuropsychology located in Spain Rehab Center. Stinson will work alongside Amy Knight, Ph.D., ABPP where he will administer psychological assessments to patients suffering from a variety of behavioral and neurological disorders.
Stinson received his B.S. in psychology and political science from Tuskegee University and his M.S. in Clinical Psychology from Alabama A&M University. His career began in West Neuropsychology at Princeton Hospital, where he worked for nearly ten years.
Stinson’s reason for pursuing a career in the field of psychology is due to his natural curiosity of the human mind. “I feel it is my job here at Spain Rehabilitation to help educate the public in the care of our most important organ. Mental health needs to be a top priority, especially in this day and age,” said Stinson.
Welcome to UAB, Phillip!
