Services
Neuropsychological Evaluations
Comprehensive assessments identify cognitive strengths and weaknesses related to brain injuries, developmental conditions, or age-related changes. Our evaluations measure memory, attention, language, and executive functioning to create targeted treatment plans. Results guide personalized rehabilitation strategies for improved daily functioning.
Traumatic Brain Injury Treatment
Specialized programs address cognitive and emotional effects of traumatic brain injuries through neuropsychological testing, cognitive rehabilitation, and therapeutic interventions. We develop individualized plans to restore independence and improve quality of life for patients recovering from concussions or severe brain trauma.
Learning Disability Assessments
Diagnostic evaluations identify specific learning challenges in children and adolescents, including dyslexia and executive function deficits. Our assessments inform tailored remediation strategies to improve academic performance and develop compensatory techniques for long-term success in educational settings.
Cognitive Rehabilitation Therapy
Structured therapy programs use computer-based tools and behavioral techniques to restore cognitive functions like attention, memory, and problem-solving. Sessions focus on reengaging neural pathways and developing compensatory strategies for individuals with brain injuries or neurodegenerative conditions.
Sports Concussion Management
Specialized concussion care for student-athletes includes baseline testing, post-injury assessment, and graduated return-to-play protocols. Our approach integrates symptom management, cognitive rest strategies, and family education to ensure safe recovery from sports-related head injuries.
