Neuropsychology
SPA can provide neuropsychological assessment and treatment to young people with a variety of medical conditions and cognitive difficulties that can interfere with skill acquisition and learning. These include maltreatment, epilepsy, neuro-developmental disorders, liver disease, stroke, dyslexia, dyscalculia and other specific learning difficulties.
Neuropsychological assessment provides a systematic evaluation of cognitive abilities such as intelligence, memory, language, attention, problem-solving ability, visual-motor skills, sensorimotor abilities, personality/emotional functioning, and academic skills. An evaluation takes from as few as one to two hours to as many as five hours depending on the referral question.
Evaluations are flexible and tailored to a specific referral question. The results of the evaluation are often the first step in developing an effective treatment or remedial plan.
