Parents, school officials, and medical providers may notice that a child is having social difficulties, sensory problems, repetitive behaviors, or difficulties with transitions. These issues can be a result of a variety of factors. Neuropsychological assessments can determine if these problems are consistent with normal development, an autism spectrum disorder, or another diagnosis. 

These cognitive assessments provide information about a student's learning strengths and weaknesses.  The student's abilities and cognitive potential are compared to others of a similar age.  Detailed reports generated from these assessments can be used to guide appropriate interventions and approaches to maximize the learning potential of the student.

Memory difficulties are among the most common complaints of individuals across the lifespan, but they are particularly common among the elderly. Formal assessment of memory helps identify if someone's memory difficulties are truly an area of concern or if they are just part of normal changes in life.  Memory is a complex process that can be disrupted in many ways. A memory assessment will help clarify if significant memory problems exist and what type of memory problems are present.
