NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL TESTING
Neuropsychological testings are cognitive tests that measure brain functioning. It can be useful to identify and differentiate any diagnoses that involve cognitive/memory functioning such as dementia, adult attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder or others seeking testing accommodations for learning disabilities, adult autism testing differential diagnosis (18yrs+), traumatic brain injury and others.
We sometimes recommend and conduct neuropsychological tests as part of our comprehensive evaluation and diagnosis. These tests can help identify specific problems or help us differentiate between possible diagnoses and inform the treatment plan to be more individualized.
Neuropsychological evaluations can measure your:
- Ability to concentrate
- Cognitive processing
- Executive function
- Memory (immediate & delayed recall)
- Problem-solving
- Visual-spatial skills
- Intelligence Quotient (IQ)
- Information processing
What to Expect From a Neuropsychological Evaluation
The first step would be to schedule a consultation with one of our neuropsychology specialists. They will conduct an initial virtual evaluation to see if you’re the right candidate and what type of testing would be beneficial.
The testing typically takes a few hours and can be completed in multiple days. It can be done online or in-person depending on the nature of the test. Your specialist will determine the exact breakdown of the tests and timing with you during the consultation. After the testing is complete, they will meet with you to go over the detailed results.
