Comprehensive Neuropsychological Evaluation
Extensive testing to diagnose complex cognitive and psychological conditions. This evaluation differentiates between overlapping symptoms of anxiety, ADHD, and neurological disorders. Clinicians use standardized assessments to map cognitive functioning, identify strengths, and create targeted treatment plans for adults and children.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Evidence-based therapy addressing anxiety, depression, and behavioral issues through skill-building techniques. Sessions focus on modifying thought patterns, developing coping strategies, and implementing practical solutions for emotional regulation and behavioral change across all age groups.
Brain Mapping EEG
Digital EEG technology assessing brain function to identify abnormalities affecting behavior. This non-invasive diagnostic tool enhances evaluation precision when combined with traditional neuropsychological testing, guiding more effective treatment planning for cognitive and psychiatric conditions.
Independent Educational Evaluation
Objective testing for children requiring academic accommodations. These evaluations meet school board standards, identifying learning disabilities like dyslexia, and providing documentation for Individualized Education Programs or college disability services.
Teletherapy Services
Secure virtual therapy sessions for mental health treatment. This service maintains the same evidence-based approaches as in-person visits, offering flexibility for clients seeking treatment for anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and behavioral concerns from their preferred location.
