We combine our expertise in behavioral neuroscience with a positive, supportive approach so that coming to NHA is enjoyable and rewarding.

Neurocognitive Assessment Testing

The first phase of the examination focuses on gaining the individual’s health, developmental, academic and behavioral history. During this phase the patient is asked to solve a variety of problems. This sophisticated computerized testing evaluates

 

attention
   
visual and verbal memory
   
processing speed
   
reasoning
   
cognitive flexibility
   
social acuity

 

This test is designed to gain a better understanding of the person’s brain functioning. Non-invasive brain-mapping technology is then used to collect information about brain dynamics and activity. A series of analyses is conducted to determine what brain factors are contributing to the patient’s symptoms. The doctors at Neurohealth Associates discuss the information gathered during the evaluation process. From this review comes a comprehensive report which includes a detailed interpretation of the individual’s results and treatment plan.
