Eric Connors, Ph.D is a neuropsychology postdoctoral fellow at Home Base. He is a Boston native and he obtained his Bachelor of Science at Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences. Shortly after graduation, he moved to San Diego to complete his graduate studies at the APA-accredited Alliant International University. His first clinical experience involved conducting neuropsychological evaluations with those in the acute stages of recovery following an acquired brain injury. Witnessing firsthand the benefits of neurorehabilitation and the role of neuropsychology solidified Dr. Connors’ goal of becoming a neuropsychologist.
In 2018, Dr. Connors moved back to Massachusetts to complete a predoctoral neuropsychology internship at the Tewksbury Hospital; where he treated individuals with complex medical conditions, acquired brain injuries, and rare neurological disorders. Dr. Connors obtained his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology in the Summer of 2019. Now at Home Base, he is thrilled to have his neuropsychology training come full circle back to Boston and to have the opportunity to work with Veterans and their families.
