Purpose:
While both clinical psychologist and neuropsychologists conduct neuropsychological testing, neuropsychologists have specialized training in understanding how medical and genetic conditions can impact brain function, cognition, learning, and behavior. They interpret evaluation results in the context of a child’s medical history to better understand how these conditions may have affected their brain.
To put it simply: if a psychologist is like a general surgeon, a neuropsychologist is like a brain surgeon—brought in when there are more complex or specific needs related to brain function.
This specialized expertise allows neuropsychologists to provide a more detailed understanding of how medical or neurological factors may be affecting your child’s development and functioning. An evaluation conducted by a neuropsychologist may be appropriate if your child has:
A neurological condition such as hydrocephalus, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, neurofibromatosis, multiple sclerosis, tuberous sclerosis, or a brain tumor.
A traumatic brain injury resulting from any incident causing loss of consciousness or requiring hospitalization (serious head injury, stroke, brain infection).
Medical conditions that increase the risk of brain injury (diabetes, chronic heart or respiratory problems, genetic disorders, or treatment for childhood cancer).
Exposure to toxins like lead, drugs, inhalants, or substances in utero (e.g., alcohol, nicotine, or other drugs).
Available for youth ages 6-18
