BRIEF OVERVIEW:
A neuropsychological evaluation may include rating scales, cognitive tests (e.g., verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning, working memory), and assessments of personality and emotional functioning. The goal is to answer referral questions and gain insights into both strengths and potential challenges.
A Neuropsychological Evaluation is typically recommended for:
Diagnostic Clarification: If there are multiple possible diagnoses, such as Autism vs. ADHD, or Anxiety/Depression vs. Neurocognitive Disorder, this evaluation can help clarify the diagnosis. It provides a detailed assessment of cognitive abilities, sensory processing, and daily functioning, while considering how other medical or mental health issues may be contributing to the challenges.
Cognitive Functioning Concerns: If you or a loved one are having difficulties with attention, memory, or problem-solving, a neuropsychological evaluation can provide a clear understanding of cognitive strengths and weaknesses. This evaluation usually takes place over two days, including a clinical interview, with additional testing days if needed.
Treatment Planning: A neuropsychological evaluation provides important information to create a personalized treatment plan. By thoroughly examining cognitive functioning, the evaluation identifies any additional challenges or co-existing conditions that may affect treatment. This ensures the development of targeted interventions and supports that are tailored to the individual's specific needs.
