What is Neuropsychological Testing?
Neuropsychological Testing is a detailed, evidence-based assessment of how your brain is functioning. Unlike a basic memory test or mental health screening, this evaluation looks at a wide range of cognitive abilities—such as memory, attention, language, reasoning, and problem-solving—as well as emotional and psychological well-being. It can help identify changes related to injury, illness, aging, or developmental disorders.
At Stuart J. Nathan, Ph.D. and Associates, we tailor each evaluation to the individual, taking into account your medical history, current concerns, and specific goals. Our reports offer clear, actionable insights that can support medical treatment, educational planning, workplace accommodations, or therapy recommendations.
How Does Neuropsychological Testing Work?
Neuropsychological Testing involves a series of standardized tasks and questionnaires administered by a licensed clinician or trained technician. The process usually includes:
You’ll complete a series of standardized tasks that measure memory, attention, problem-solving, language, and other thinking skills. We may also assess mood, personality, and emotional functioning to get a full picture of your cognitive and psychological health.
Once testing is complete, we’ll schedule a feedback session to go over the results with you. You’ll receive a comprehensive written report that includes findings, diagnoses (if applicable), and personalized recommendations for treatment, support, or next steps.
With your consent, we can share findings with your physician, therapist, school, or other providers involved in your care. This ensures everyone is working from the same understanding and can make informed decisions about your treatment, accommodations, or recovery plan.
