Neuropsychological Testing Process
- Clinical Interview: We begin with a clinical interview, where we gather information about your cognitive and psychological functioning. This helps us understand your unique experiences and concerns.
- Test Battery Administration: We administer a test battery tailored to your needs, which may include face-to-face, paper-and-pencil, or computer-based tests. These tests have undergone extensive research and are reliable measures of cognitive abilities.
- Data Analysis and Report: Once we collect and analyze all the data, we prepare a comprehensive report summarizing the assessment findings. The report addresses your specific questions and concerns.
- Feedback Session: We schedule a feedback session to discuss the results and recommendations with you. This session ensures you have a clear understanding of the assessment outcomes and helps you make informed decisions regarding your treatment.
