Joe Lipetzky, Psy.D.

Dr. Lipetzky is a psychologist in private practice in the Boise area since 1995. He works with couples, families and individuals of all ages. Dr. Lipetzky helps his clients understand the logic behind their emotions. Once they understand how their mind (logic) and heart (emotions) work, they are better able to use their new tools to reduce or stop depression, worries, pain, and relationship problems. Marriages improve and children behave better once these principles are put into place. They learn how to meet their needs in a healthier way and break the abusive cycles of behavior.


Dr. Lipetzky also conducts court ordered parenting time evaluations. He is a Certified AEDP Therapist (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy) working with adults suffering the effects of childhood attachment trauma and abuse and is also a Certified Clinical Trauma therapist. He is a frequent guest speaker and presenter on various topics, especially involving children, parenting and prayer. In addition, Dr. Lipetzky is presently on part-time staff at a local private school. On his off time, Dr. Joe enjoys trying to get himself lost in the great wilderness of Idaho.
