The field of neuropsychology is dedicated to learning about and diagnosing conditions related to the brain and nervous system. Neuropsychological exams go into detail on the general health of the brain. The results of a neuropsychological evaluation can help to pinpoint causes of problems, whether they are related to a stroke, metabolic issue, traumatic brain injury, developmental issue, seizures, learning disabilities, or with our Deaf population, language deprivation. Neuropsychological evaluation and diagnosis early in the course of a disease can help patients make lifestyle changes to negate disease progression. Psychological evaluations, on the other hand, focus on examining mood or personality issues that may be interfering with daily functioning. Psychological evaluations can also look into general cognitive functioning as well as areas of strengths and weaknesses in academic achievement.
