Neuropsychological Evaluation

Our Neuropsychological Evaluation provides an in-depth and comprehensive understanding of an individual’s cognitive functioning and development.  This assessment for children and adults identifies neurological weaknesses that may impact an individual’s learning, efficiency/productivity, socialization, behavior, emotional control, or daily living.

When to Consider Evaluation

This assessment may be indicated for children or adults who are experiencing symptoms of a neurological disorder, have a developmental problem, genetic disorder, disease affecting the brain, or have had a brain injury.  It may also be appropriate for those who, even after previous evaluation, continue to experience difficulties functioning in their home, school, or work environment.

Components of our Assessment

Developmental, educational, medical, and family history
Review of medical, clinical, and academic records
Multiple behavioral surveys and rating scales from home and school/work
Clinical interview
Behavioral observations
Classroom observation if indicated
