Neuropsychological and Psychological Evaluations

Neuropsychological/Psychological evaluations are conducted through a combination of standardized tests, clinical interviews, self-report measures, and observations. The assessment process is individualized, with tests selected based on the individual's presenting concerns, medical history, and referral questions. The results of these assessments provide valuable information for clinicians, patients, families, and others involved in the individual's care.
