Features

Neuropsychological evaluations have the richest and oldest scientific underpinnings of any procedure designed to assess brain-behavior relationships. These evaluations describe brain mediated human behavior better than any other single approach.

Evaluations describe cerebral impairment in terms of a person's abilities and limitations
Successfully employed, these evaluations guide the multidisciplinary treatment that will maximize recovery
Pre- and post-surgical evaluations are available to monitor progress and improvement
Expert opinions for legal or court-ordered cases

Neuropsychological evaluations are not just "testing." Tests are one component of this evaluation that takes into consideration and utilizes an individual's developmental, psychological, emotional and general adaptive history in order to understand results in the context of the individual's life history.
