A Neuropsychological Assessment is performed by a Neuropsychologist. It helps to diagnose neurological, neurodevelopmental, and psychiatric disorders in children and adults. It will help identify functional limitations and abilities and determine the prognosis of these problems so that you can get help in areas you need it, and excel in areas of strength. Neuropsychological assessment is also widely used to evaluate complex learning and behavior problems in children and adults.
