Neuropsychology Evaluations

Complete testing for complex conditions affecting adults and children

Neuropsychology is the study of how brain function relates to behavior, emotion, and cognition (thinking). Our team evaluates patients of all ages throughout southeast Michigan for problems associated with behavioral or medical conditions. In addition to testing and diagnosis, we also provide recommendations and education to help patients and families better understand their conditions and related challenges.

Our neuropsychology team works with adult patients who have conditions that affect behavior, emotion, and thinking, such as:

• Dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, or memory loss
• Epilepsy and seizure disorders
• Head injuries and concussions
• Various neurological disorders
• Complex medical disorders
• Cognitive, emotional or mental health issues following a lengthy ICU stay
• Movement disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease
• Strokes
• Brain tumors

In children and teens, patients see our trained pediatric neuropsychologists for evaluation for difficulties relating to:

• Neurological and medical conditions, such as spina bifida, hydrocephalus, epilepsy/seizures, and genetic disorders
• Brain injury
• Sickle cell disease and stroke
• ADHD
• Autism*
  
  • We offer educational planning for a child already diagnosed with autism.
  • If you are seeking diagnosis of Autism, this service is offered through out Center for Autism and Developmental Disabilities (CADD)
• Neurodevelopmental disorders, such as intellectual disabilities or language delays
• Complications from preterm birth or complex pregnancies
• Learning disabilities
• Exposure to substances or toxins during pregnancy

Patients of all ages also come to us for evaluations following brain injuries and sports concussions. Through testing, we can assess the extent of the injury and make treatment recommendations to help patients back to work, school, and sports safely.

Our recommendations are based on the evidence we gather in detailed evaluations and the latest medical science. We work with experts in a variety of fields as part of a team effort for our patients, including:

• Mental health providers
• Neurologists
• Pediatricians
