Research tells us that a neuropsychological assessment leads to more accurate diagnosis and specific interventions targeting unique challenges resulting in more efficient and positive outcomes. Our goal is to help you identify and enhance brain behavior abilities and help answer questions you have regarding cognitive, educational, social-emotional, and behavioral capabilities.
We are a small team of board certified neuropsychologists offering specialized assessments to provide a deep understanding of how you or your child's behavior is influenced by their brain functioning. Dr. Natalie and Dr. John have dedicated their education, experience, and years of training to the field of clinical and educational neuropsychology to provide you with highly individualized reports.
We do not use techs, students, or master's level clinicians, and you will directly work with your licensed clinical neuropsychologist from start to finish.
A note on artificial intelligence (AI). Although there is great utility to the advancements in this technology, we have made a conscious choice in not utilizing AI services in any aspect of our evaluation reports. We strive to have highly personalized evaluations entirely written by your neuropsychologist.
Children experience many changes in a short period of time. For parents, understanding whether a child’s cognitive development, learning potential, and social-emotional growth are on track is invaluable. A neuropsychological evaluation provides important insights for parents, teachers, and healthcare providers by identifying a child’s strengths and challenges, allowing for tailored support to help them succeed.
Such an evaluation can address concerns related to developmental delays, learning differences, autism spectrum disorders, attention disorders, giftedness, executive functioning, and more. It helps create an individualized learning profile based on the child’s unique brain functioning. If a diagnosis or challenge is identified, early intervention is key to achieving the best possible outcomes—this is where an evaluation becomes essential. We specialize in assessing children as young as 2 years old, providing guidance for educational planning and customized interventions to meet each child’s specific needs.
For some families, the goal may be to enhance their child’s academic performance. Obtaining a neuropsychological profile can help both children and their parents understand how they learn best and how to maximize their potential.
Adolescents undergo many dynamic changes, including significant brain remodeling as their brains work to become more efficient—a process known as “pruning.” During this time, processing speed and efficiency increase, and the prefrontal cortex, responsible for decision-making and impulse control, is rapidly developing. Adolescence is a period of rapid development and reorganization, which can help explain changes in emotions, learning, and cognitive growth.
As the complexity of their environments increases, caregivers may notice new challenges or concerns, making this an important time to consider a neuropsychological evaluation. During these years, an evaluation can empower teens to better understand their own neuropsychological profile, advocate for themselves, and discover how they learn best.
We provide neuropsychological evaluations across the lifespan, including for adults and older adults. If there are questions about memory, attention, behavioral changes, or other cognitive concerns, an evaluation can offer valuable insights into how the brain is functioning as it ages. By assessing cognitive strengths and weaknesses, we can create a detailed profile that includes memory, attention, language, problem-solving, judgment, executive functioning, and more.
Neuropsychological evaluations can guide treatment planning when specific cognitive challenges are identified. For some adults, these assessments also serve as a baseline for cognitive functioning, allowing for the monitoring of changes over time. If there are concerns about cognitive changes, a neuropsychological evaluation can provide important information about brain-behavior relationships and inform next steps.
