Neuropsychological Assessment
Neuropsychological testing is a comprehensive, evidence-based evaluation of how the brain's functioning affects thinking, behavior, and emotion. Using standardized measures of memory, attention, processing speed, language, and executive functioning, a neuropsychological evaluation builds a detailed picture of your cognitive strengths and areas of difficulty. It is not pass-or-fail, but a map of how your brain works.
Afterward, you receive a written report summarizing the findings, any diagnoses, and recommended next steps, along with a feedback appointment where every result is explained in plain language.
Some neuropsychological referral questions may require in-person testing or medical neuropsychology services. When a referral is not appropriate for remote evaluation, we will recommend a more suitable provider or setting.
Benefits of
Neuropsychological Testing
-
Provides a comprehensive, objective picture of brain–behavior relationships: intelligence, attention, memory, processing speed, executive functioning, language, and visuospatial skills
-
Identifies specific cognitive strengths and weaknesses that cannot be detected through observation or a standard clinical interview alone
-
Guides individualized treatment planning, school accommodations, workplace supports, and medical decision-making with data-driven results
-
Establishes a baseline of cognitive functioning to track changes over time including after a brain injury or illness, or as part of aging
-
Gives individuals and families clear answers and a roadmap forward, reducing uncertainty and frustration
Who Should Consider Testing
-
Adults with significant difficulties in attention, memory, or learning that interfere with daily functioning
-
Individuals who have experienced a traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, seizure disorder, or other neurological event
-
Those with a history of prenatal or birth complications, prematurity, or early developmental concerns
-
Older adults or their families concerned about memory loss, cognitive decline, or early signs of dementia
-
Anyone whose academic, occupational, or daily performance is unexpectedly declining or inconsistent without clear explanation
