Neuropsychological & Psychoeducational Assessments
We provide the following types of assessments for adults of all ages (18+ year old):
Assessments for patients with a diagnosed history of certain neurological conditions that can result in changes in cognitive functioning, including multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, brain tumors, and infections of the brain or spinal cord
Assessments for patients with a history of non-neurological conditions (and their treatments) that can affect cognitive functioning, including diseases of the liver, kidneys, heart, lungs, digestive system, and endocrine system, as well as some cancers
Evaluations of cognitive and psychosocial functioning for patients with a history of traumatic brain injury (TBI)
Psychoeducational evaluations of ADHD and learning disabilities (including dyslexia) for adults who are currently enrolled in a college/university program, planning to return to school, or considering career options
Evaluations for patients seeking accommodations on high-stakes tests and/or licensure exams (e.g., TN Bar Examination, MCAT, GRE)
Assessments for both intellectual disability and intellectual giftedness, including evaluations for twice-exceptionality (i.e., intellectually disabled or gifted, with comorbid Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, psychiatric disorder, etc.)
Psychiatric differential diagnostic evaluations and assessment of emotional and personality functioning
Brain Wellness Checkup Services
We provide Brain Wellness Checkups for middle-aged adult patients (typically ages 45-65) who have started to notice changes in memory, attention, or organizational skills and who would like assistance determining if their symptoms are cause for concern, or consistent with normal aging.
Every Brain Wellness Checkup patient receives tailored recommendations for techniques to aid in improving cognitive functioning, as well as evidence-based lifestyle modifications they can implement in order to reduce their risk of developing dementia in the future.
Assessments typically consist of 3-4 appointments:

Appointment Length: Typically 1-1.5 hours
Our neuropsychologist will meet with the patient and their family member(s)/caregiver(s) to gather information on the patient’s current cognitive and mood symptoms, functional capacity, and relevant psychosocial and medical history.
