There are many tools that can help us to understand how the brain works. Although there are many high-tech machines that can look at the structure of the brain (and some even measure the function of the brain), a standardized neuropsychological assessment objectively measures the functioning of the brain in a non-invasive way.

By measuring behavior - how we use language, pay attention, learn and remember, solve problems, think flexibly, use motor and sensory skills, and how we perceive things visually - a neuropsychologist can identify strengths, weaknesses, and areas of impairment in functioning. By doing so, the neuropsychologist can work with individuals to rehabilitate skills that are weak or impaired in order to assist individuals with meeting different types of goals.

The goals might include returning to work, how to learn better in a classroom setting, whether or not a person can live independently, and so on. Although the standardized neuropsychological assessment helps us to develop a treatment plan, not all individuals referred to the center require this comprehensive, one-day evaluation. Some individuals are referred for immediate therapies that might include neurobehavioral intervention, cognitive rehabilitation, psychotherapy for the adjustment to disability issues, family therapy, neuro EEG feedback, and clinical hypnosis.
