What is Neuropsychological Testing?
Neuropsychological testing consists of systematically and objectively measuring your brain functioning as it is related to your cognitive strengths and weaknesses. Testing will measure the cognitive domains of attention, memory, language, information processing, and problem-solving. Testing also includes assessing your emotional functioning because emotional and behavioral functions are often a key component of cognitive processes. Our neuropsychological testing services can provide detailed information about your cognitive strengths and weaknesses so that effective treatment recommendations can be developed to improve functioning in your daily life.
