Jeanne Hoffman, Ph.D., ABPP is a board certified clinical psychologist at the Rehab Medicine Clinic at the University of Washington Medical Center, head of the UW Medicine Division of Rehabilitation Psychology and Neuropsychology and a UW professor of Rehabilitation Medicine. She is an attending psychologist at the UW Medical Center Montlake Campus where she helps individuals cope with new disability and managing symptoms of depression and anxiety. She conducts research to improve outcomes for individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and spinal cord injury (SCI) and examines access to healthcare for individuals with disability. Her other research interests include adjustment to disability and new healthcare models and health services.
Dr. Hoffman is involved in several clinical trials. She is the Project Director for the UW TBI Model System funded by National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR), leading a local project examining the use of collaborative care to treat pain in individuals with TBI. She is a co-Principal Investigator of a Patient Centered Outcome Research Institute (PCORI) funded study comparing the effectiveness of two approaches to the transition from inpatient rehabilitation to the community for individuals with moderate to severe TBI. In addition, she is the Principal Investigator of a study funded by the Craig H. Neilsen Foundation to determine the effectiveness of a online peer-led self-management intervention. She has also led other clinical trials such as telephone delivered cognitive behavioral therapy versus education for Veterans with pain and TBI, evaluating the effectiveness of scheduled telephone follow up for individuals with SCI, the impact of exercise on mood after TBI, and assisted with studies of Amitriptyline to prevent headache in individuals with new mild TBI and Sumatriptan to treat headache in those who have had a TBI.
