Scott P. Hoopes, M.D.
Dr. Hoopes completed his undergraduate degree in Zoology and his M.A. in Classical
Languages at B.Y.U. before completing his M.D. at the University of Utah. Residency
took him and his young family to Portland to train in Psychiatry at the Oregon
Health Sciences University. While there he elected to spend his final general
psychiatry year training full time in the Child Pyschiatry Department. Thus,
although he is not formally a child psychiatrist, he has had substantial training
and experience in treating children. His first years of practice were at Mountain
Home Air Force Base where he was Chief of Behavioral Medicine for two years.
Upon discharging from the service he moved his growing family to Boise where
they have lived ever since. He has practiced in Boise since 1995 and since 2003
he has only seen patients in his outpatient practice. From 1997 to 2002 he was
the principal investigator for over 30 industry sponsored clinical trials in
his own research organization. He returned to full time clinical practice in
2002. He has published studies on the use of topiramate in Bulimia Nervosa,
lamotrigine in adolescents with Bipolar Disorder, and others. He has lectured
widely on mood disoders and belongs to the speakers bureaux for Lilly, Glaxo
Smith-Kline,and Bristol-Meyer Squib. He and his friend and colleague, Dawson
Hedges, M.D., recently wrote Bipolar Disorder: A Clinical Guide, published by
Lippincott. It is particularly gratifying for him to work with a wonderful group
of clinicians, all of them good and loyal friends, in a clinic where they all
share the passion to “get people well”.

Lisa Manery, LCSW
Rand Martel, LCPC
After fifteen
years involvement in international affairs, including working undercover for
a US intelligence agency, Rand earned a graduate degree in mental health counseling
and marriage and family therapy from Idaho State University. Prior to that,
Rand received degrees from Concordia College in Moorhead, Minnesota, and the
Goethe-Institut of Passau, Germany. He studied human and emotional intelligence
at USAINTS in Baltimore, Maryland, and did graduate work in Eastern European
political psychology at Brigham Young University.
Rand’s primary professional intrigue is drawn from “systemic traumatology” (disturbing events occurring within family systems), with subspecialties in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Acute Stress Disorder, grief and loss, as well as pornography addiction recovery. Being involved with couples, families, and individuals in their evolving efforts to find meaning and direction in their lives fuels the passion of his work. Rand states his most fulfilling therapeutic experiences are working with “normal people in abnormal situations.” Presently, he is developing a program of therapeutic research with survivors of the former Soviet-bloc, primarily East Germany and Russia .
In addition to finding his greatest joys in life with his wife and three children, personal interests for Rand include running thousands of miles, cycling even more, backpacking with his hounds (and camera) in the Idaho wild and, recently, taking up paragliding. Displaying little natural ability, Rand nonetheless finds fulfillment in considering himself a student of the classical guitar.
