Cognitive differences can arise from neurodevelopmental variations, neurological conditions, or brain injuries. Below you'll find information about some of the conditions we commonly assess. Click on any condition to learn more about how neuropsychological evaluation can help.
ADHD in Adulthood
If you've always felt like you have to work twice as hard as everyone else to stay organized, or wondered why things that seem easy for others are inexplicably difficult for you, you're not alone.

Understanding whether you have ADHD can be validating, relieving, and life-changing—opening the door to support and strategies that actually work.

Whether you're in the early stages of recovery or living with long-term effects, clarity about your functioning empowers you to adapt, plan for the future, and advocate for your needs.
