Overview

A Neuropsychological Evaluation is a careful, in-depth assessment of how an individual’s brain is functioning in everyday life, including memory, attention, problem-solving, and emotional functioning. Through a series of standardized, evidence-based tests, clinicians develop a clear picture of cognitive strengths and areas of difficulty. The information gained is organized into a comprehensive, clinically meaningful profile.

Purpose

People often seek this type of evaluation when there are changes in thinking or memory, difficulty keeping up at work or school, or concerns that a medical or neurological condition is affecting daily life. The process can provide clarity, direction, and peace of mind for individuals and families. Results help guide treatment, accommodations, and practical next steps so that functioning and quality of life can be supported.
