Independent neuropsychological assessments, delivered with clarity

What we assess

Neuropsychological assessment helps clarify cognitive strengths and difficulties across domains such as memory, attention, language, and executive functioning. It can support diagnosis, rehabilitation planning, workplace decisions, and medico-legal questions.

Our reports are objective, evidence-based, and written to be understood by the intended audience, whether clinical, legal, or occupational.

How a neuropsychological assessment works

Clear steps so you know what happens next.

1. Initial consultation

A detailed discussion to understand the reason for assessment and gather relevant background information. We clarify the referral questions and explain what the assessment can and cannot answer.

2. Clinical interview

Exploring medical, psychological, educational, and functional history to build a well-rounded understanding of cognitive strengths and difficulties.

3. Comprehensive cognitive testing

Using standardised neuropsychological tests to assess areas such as memory, attention, language, processing speed, visuospatial skills, and executive functioning.

4. Detailed neuropsychological report

A structured report summarising findings, interpretation, and tailored recommendations for treatment, rehabilitation, support, or adjustments. Reports are written to match the needs of the referral context, including medico-legal requirements where relevant.

A feedback consultation to discuss results, explain implications, and agree next steps. We can also advise on onward referrals and support options.
