1. Assessment and Diagnosis Training Program + the Assessment and Diagnosis Training Certificate (ADTC)
Today’s diagnostic landscape is more complex—and more critical—than ever. With diagnoses influencing access to care, legal decisions, and identity, clinicians must make ethical, accurate, and culturally informed choices that account for both scientific criteria and human complexity.
This self-paced, 12-hour training equips mental health professionals with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to conduct diagnostic assessments grounded in both DSM-5-TR criteria and real-world clinical judgment. It’s a thoughtful, practical course for those who want to refine their approach to diagnosis and provide more responsible, person-centered care.
Topics covered include the historical evolution of diagnostic systems, the social construction of mental illness, DSM-5 to DSM-5-TR changes, the structure and function of the Mental Status Examination, psychiatric assessment components, the biopsychosocial model, diagnostic categories (including trauma-related, mood, anxiety, psychotic, and substance use disorders), and special considerations for grief, cognitive differences, and intellectual disability.

2. Telemental Health and Psychological Assessments
Psychological assessments are a cornerstone of diagnostic accuracy—but how do clinicians uphold best practices when the tools, environments, and communication channels shift to telehealth? In a world where remote services are essential, assessors are under increased pressure to adapt without sacrificing quality, ethics, or clinical effectiveness.
This course offers a practical and research-based roadmap for clinicians navigating the rapidly evolving landscape of telemental health assessments. If you’ve felt unsure about how to replicate the integrity of in-person assessments through a screen, this training meets that challenge head-on.
Topics covered include mental status examinations, diagnostic and intake interviews, and behavioral observations conducted via telehealth. You'll explore the remote use of cognitive/IQ, personality, achievement, and projective assessments, with guidance on ethical adaptations, test security, client environment evaluation, and how to work with children or clients with special considerations. The course also details APA and IOPC guidelines, hybrid and asynchronous models, and documentation standards for remote testing.
Learning Objectives:
- Apply ethical standards and guidelines for psychological assessment to telemental health.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of conducting psychological assessments via telemental health for individual clients.

3. Foundations of Telemental Health
You’ve worked hard to earn your license—but providing care across a screen raises a whole new set of questions, risks, and challenges.

A licensed mental health counselor (LMHC), Ray is an innovator and leader in the field of telemental health. He’s an expert telehealth trainer, a respected speaker, and a trusted consultant.
Ray’s inspiration for TCI came from his clients that started asking him to conduct their therapy sessions over the phone. Ray had discovered a knowledge gap in mental health training. He wanted to fill that void with comprehensive and practical training in telemental health - so Ray created that training for himself and fellow clinicians.
Since 2014, TCI has delivered comprehensive telehealth training and consultation to a global network of more than 40,000 healthcare organizations and professionals. TCI now offers over 180 specialized courses, a vast array of telehealth resources, and ongoing free continuing education opportunities for telehealth providers.

Ray played a significant role in developing the initial curriculum for the Board Certified Telemental Health credential (BC-TMH) for the Center for Credentialing and Education (CCE).

He even wrote and developed the initial draft of one of the training modules: Telemental Health Settings and Coordination of Care.
The American Telemedicine Association (ATA) - the most respected organization for telehealth - recently overhauled its guidelines. Ray was on the writing committee that developed Best Practices in Synchronous Videoconferencing-Based Telemental Health in March 2022.
In 2019, Ray participated in a task force for developing a clinical rating process for mobile apps designed to help treat depression. The recommendations were presented to ATA.
The Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) is an independent, nonprofit organization that provides accreditation services worldwide at the request of health and human service providers. As part of the International Standards Advisory Committee (ISAC), Ray helped establish CARF’s standards for virtual services.
Ray also is a frequent speaker and consultant for professional organizations. He has presented for over 20 organizations since 2015.
