The Power of Potential

We were delighted to have Dr. Ted Lombardo from the Florida School for the Deaf and Blind. 

Dr. Lombardo earned his doctorate in psychology in1985 and worked for his first 10 years professionally in Denver Colorado. That is where he caught the bug of working with deaf people, learning sign language and working his way up to being the state hospital's consultant with the Colorado School for the Deaf and Blind. When he moved to Florida he assumed a variety of management positiions in behavioral health for a central Florida hospital system. In 1999, He made the biggest leap of his professional life when he accepted a position as a full time psychologist working with deaf people in St. Augustine. He has been there for 13 years and in that time, has done a wide variety of activities including evaluation, counseling, consultation, research, etc. A few years ago he began teaching sign language for fun thru Learn Jacksonville. He's also maintained a small weekend private practice in clinical psychology in Jacksonville and Ponte Vedra.
