A neuropsychological evaluation assesses various facets of an individual’s overall functioning and capabilities, including cognitive, developmental, behavioral, visual-spatial, language, sensory-motor, emotional, and personality aspects. The neuropsychological evaluation uses empirically-based, standardized assessments to understand your strengths and weaknesses. These evaluations help provide diagnostic clarification, treatment recommendations, and recommendations for school accommodations.
The first appointment for a neuropsychological evaluation is a structured, 50-minute clinical interview. During this time, we will discuss the background history, including childhood and developmental history, medical and psychological history, academic and occupational history, and current symptoms or concerns. This clinical interview allows your provider to gather as much background information as possible to determine the unique set of tests that will be utilized.
The second part of the neuropsychological evaluation process typically involves a 4-hour testing block on either Tuesday or Thursday. A second testing session is sometimes required and would typically occur the following week, lasting 1-2 hours. This would be discussed at your intake session. You will work with a psychologist and a psychometrist (a doctoral student in Clinical Psychology), who works under the psychologist’s supervision. During this time, the individual completes a wide range of empirically-based assessments. These appointments are typically scheduled in the morning to help gather the most accurate level of functioning.
There is a wide variety of empirically-based, standardized assessments to further understand your cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and social functioning. We use laptops, iPads, and other test materials and stimulus items during the assessment. We also use self-report, teacher-report, and parent-report measures to assist in our clinical decision-making process. The goal is also to be fun and engaging! We take breaks for snacks/water, restroom use, and sensory or motor breaks whenever needed, to make this a positive experience for you and/or your child.
Some insurance policies cover psychological and neuropsychological assessments. Prior to the testing sessions, we will help determine your coverage. Some insurance companies require a pre-authorization to be completed. We will be happy to complete and submit the pre-authorization for the testing after the initial assessment intake. If we do not accept your insurance plan for testing, a discounted out-of-network rate will be quoted. The total cost of an assessment includes the face-to-face time spent in the office (e.g., initial intake appointment(s), testing administration appointments, and feedback sessions), as well as the administrative time required by the psychologist (e.g., scoring, interpreting results, and report writing).
If you have any further questions about the assessment process, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We are happy to help walk you through the process.
Bringing in previous psychological or neuropsychological evaluations, a child’s Individualized Education Plan (IEP) or 504 Plan, other school records, and medical records can be extremely helpful in the assessment process. These documents provide additional information on each patient, helping us determine the appropriate battery of assessments to use. With your consent, we will review these documents to incorporate them into the final evaluation report.
We also encourage all patients to bring water and a nutritious snack to each testing session. Additionally, we recommend dressing comfortably and in layers to maintain your comfort throughout the evaluation.
After all testing sessions are completed, we will score, interpret, and write a neuropsychological report. This process typically takes 3 to 4 weeks. Once the report is completed, a feedback session is provided to discuss the assessment results, diagnosis, and further recommendations. Contact us today to schedule your appointment and begin your journey towards healing and empowerment.
We’ll support you in finding clarity, growth, and emotional well-being.
