In Alberta, when a person registers to be a psychologist, they must also declare their area of practice, or specialization, based on their coursework and clinical training. One such specialization is neuropsychology. According to the College of  Alberta Psychologists (CAP), the neuropsychology branch includes “the application of psychological knowledge, skills and judgment about brain-behaviour relationships to the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of individuals with known or suspected central nervous system dysfunction.” Psychologists who practice in the area of neuropsychology have specialized training to understand how illnesses, injuries, and diseases of the brain and central nervous system affect the way a person thinks, feels, and behaves.
