What is a Neuropsychological Evaluation

A neuropsychological evaluation is a comprehensive assessment of cognitive functions (learning and memory or problem-solving). Standard testing procedures are used to assess the abilities that relate to learning and use knowledge skills.

These areas include:

• Learning, Memory, Concentration

• Language Skills

• Problem-solving and Critical Thinking

• Perceptual, Spatial & Motor Skills

• Planning, Organization, and Judgment

Benefits of Evaluation

• Discover the reasons for your child's academic struggles

• Determine if your child may qualify for special education services

• Explain your child's learning style to you and school staff

• Obtain recommendations that will help your child learn to compensate for difficulties.

• Assess the effectiveness of treatments and interventions

• Determine if academic difficulties are due to cognitive or motivational deficits

Potential Benefits of Psychological Evaluation

Accurate diagnosis of psychological difficulties will lead to treatment strategies that work to improve relationships, self-esteem, energy, ability to initiate, and academic performance. Children may feel less overwhelmed, more in control, and happier. They may demonstrate more positive thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Our recommended strategies include interventions at school and at home.
