You may be feeling distressed, unsettled, or hopeless right now. Perhaps your symptoms have become unmanageable, and you’re craving answers. Whether you’re a family member seeking an assessment for a loved one or you’re seeking to be evaluated yourself, we take a compassionate, culturally-informed approach to Neuropsychological and Psychological Evaluations.
Health care, in general, is not a one-size-fits-all paradigm. But when treatment plans are created with you in mind, better outcomes are achieved. Neuropsychological and Psychological Evaluations allow treatment plans to be personalized and tailored to your specific needs.
Neuropsychological and Psychological Evaluations involve a series of tests that provide in-depth information regarding your uniqueness, including your cognitive ability, behaviors, personality traits, perspectives, and interpersonal and intrapersonal styles. These evaluations highlight your strengths and areas for improvement and can be done in a reasonably short amount of time. Neuropsychological and psychological testing and assessment can help clarify a diagnosis and provide recommendations for the next steps. They can give a tremendous sense of clarity, relief, and confirmation that the difficulties you are facing are real.
At Avatar Cognitive and Behavioral Center, we approach Neuropsychological and Psychological Evaluations holistically. We respect and honor your individuality, considering your culture and background. We understand that testing and assessment can be daunting, but we're here to alleviate your concerns. Our aim is to provide you with compassionate, supportive and holistic care, ensuring your comfort throughout the process.
