General Neuropsychology INFORMATION
At Fort Wayne Neuropsychology, we specialize in understanding how the brain affects behavior, thinking, and emotions. Our general neuropsychology services are designed to help individuals of all ages identify, understand, and manage cognitive and psychological challenges related to brain function.
What is Neuropsychology?
Neuropsychology is a specialized field of psychology that focuses on how brain structure and function relate to behavior and thinking. A neuropsychological evaluation helps identify strengths and weaknesses in areas such as:
-
Memory
-
Attention and concentration
-
Problem-solving and reasoning
-
Language and communication
-
Academic skills
-
Emotional and behavioral functioning
This information can be crucial for diagnosis, treatment planning, and everyday support at home, work, or school.
Who can benefit?
We work with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults experiencing cognitive, emotional, or behavioral changes due to a variety of medical or neurological conditions, including:
-
ADHD and learning disorders
-
Autism spectrum disorders
-
Concussion and traumatic brain injury (TBI)
-
Stroke or vascular conditions
-
Epilepsy or seizure disorders
-
Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Parkinson’s Disease, and other neurodegenerative conditions
-
Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias
-
Chronic medical conditions affecting the brain (e.g., cancer, chronic pain, autoimmune disease)
What to expect from a neuropsychological evaluation?
A typical evaluation includes:
- Clinical Interview – We begin by discussing your symptoms, concerns, and medical history.
- Testing – You’ll complete a series of standardized assessments tailored to your specific needs.
- Feedback Session – After testing, we review your results, provide a clear explanation of findings, and offer recommendations for treatment, support, or accommodations.
You’ll receive a comprehensive written report you can share with your doctor, school, or employer.
