Frequently Asked Questions

A neuropsychological assessment is a comprehensive evaluation of cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning, using a battery of standardized tests and procedures. A neuropsychological assessment is a vital tool in understanding how brain function affects behavior and cognition. It provides a thorough evaluation that informs diagnosis, treatment, and support strategies, ultimately helping you to move past obstacles in order to reach your short and long term life goals.

The key components of a neuropsychological assessment are:

  • Clinical Interview:  A detailed interview with the individual and often family members or caregivers to gather information about medical history, psychological background, educational and occupational history, and current symptoms.
  • Record Review: Reviewing relevant medical, educational, and psychological records to provide a comprehensive understanding of the individual’s history and current functioning.
  • Standardized Testing: A variety of standardized tests are administered to assess different cognitive domains, including memory, attention and concentration, language skills, motor planning, executive functioning and visuospatial skills.
  • Behavioral and Emotional Assessment: Questionnaires and interviews to assess emotional functioning, personality, and behavior. This helps identify any psychological factors that might influence cognitive performance.

Obtaining a neuropsychological assessment offers several key benefits for individuals experiencing cognitive, emotional, or behavioral difficulties. Firstly, it provides an accurate diagnosis of various conditions, including ADHD, learning disabilities, and psychological disorders. This ensures that individuals receive appropriate treatment and support tailored to their specific needs. Additionally, a neuropsychological assessment offers insights into cognitive strengths and weaknesses, guiding personalized interventions to improve daily functioning and quality of life. By monitoring progress over time, the assessment helps individuals and their healthcare providers evaluate the effectiveness of treatments and make informed decisions about ongoing care. Overall, a neuropsychological assessment is a valuable tool for understanding complex brain-behavior relationships and facilitating optimal life outcomes.

The length of the neuropsychological evaluation process can vary from several weeks to a couple of months, depending on the complexity of the case and the specific assessments needed. Typically:

  • Initial Appointment: The initial clinical interview and information gathering takes 1-2 hours.
  • Questionnaires and Testing: Completing behavioral questionnaires and any cognitive tests takes 4 to 8 hours, often done over one or two sessions.
  • Feedback Session: After all information is collected and analyzed, a feedback session is scheduled, usually within 4 to 6 weeks of the initial appointment, to discuss the results and next steps.

We recommend reaching out to your insurance company to obtain information about your specific mental health benefits.  The codes that we use for neuropsychological assessments are:
