Neuropsychological testing examines how attention, memory, learning, reasoning, and other cognitive abilities affect daily functioning. An evaluation can help clarify concerns such as ADHD or learning difficulties, or changes in thinking associated with an injury or medical condition. We consider cognitive findings alongside emotional, behavioral, and personal history to identify strengths, difficulties, and appropriate next steps.
A parent, teacher, learning specialist, or physician may recommend assessment when there are concerns about attention, learning, memory, behavior, or mood. Adults may seek an evaluation for persistent difficulties at work or changes following an injury or medical event. Findings can inform learning support, academic accommodations, treatment planning, and referrals for additional care when appropriate.
The testing schedule depends on the nature and complexity of the presenting concerns. Comprehensive evaluations include a clinical interview, review of relevant information, and testing administered by trained assessment staff. A psychologist interprets the findings and prepares a written report. Your assessment coordinator will explain the expected appointment length and the arrangements for reviewing results.
We work with adolescents, college students, and adults seeking clarity about cognitive, learning, and emotional functioning. Contact BGA Psychology to discuss your concerns and determine which evaluation is appropriate.
A neuropsychological evaluation may examine intellectual ability, academic skills, attention, memory, executive functioning, motor skills, mood, and personality. The psychologist selects measures that address the specific referral questions. The following are examples of instruments used in this type of assessment; not every evaluation includes every measure.
