Narrative

A neuropsychological evaluation uses the assessment techniques of clinical psychology and neuropsychology to assess learning and developmental challenges; to identify their underpinnings; to offer a diagnosis; and to make recommendations for treatment and for management.

What is the focus of this evaluation?

A neuropsychological evaluation will take a holistic focus and will assess multiple aspects of a child’s or an adult’s functioning. It will include intellectual assessment, academic testing, emotional assessment, and assessment of a broad range of neurological domains (such as memory, language, visual-spatial skills, and executive functioning).

What can you expect at the conclusion of the evaluation?

At the conclusion of the neuropsychological evaluation, parents need to be given more than a label. Parents should gain a better understanding of their child’s developmental profile: their strengths and challenges, and how their child experiences the world. Parents should also expect to be supported in translating this understanding into a plan for helping their child with whatever challenges have prompted the evaluation. The same results can be expected of our adult clients.
