Neuropsychology Evaluations
Gaylord’s neuropsychologists are licensed psychologists with training in how behavior and skills are related to brain structures and systems. In clinical neuropsychology, brain function is evaluated by objectively testing memory and thinking skills. Testing is recommended when symptoms or complaints involve memory or thinking. The first step is to talk with a physician to obtain a referral. We will perform the evaluation, help identify the root causes, coordinate with your doctor, and develop a treatment plan for the best course of action.
Counseling Services
Experts find that professional talk therapy is helpful while grieving the loss of one’s physical or mental capabilities. Many people separate their life as the time “before” or “after” their health-related crisis and have difficulties adjusting to their new “normal” following a life-changing medical event.
As one proceeds through physical healing, it’s vital to address the emotional and mental health issues that can accompany these challenges.
Gaylord’s licensed clinical social workers are trained to help those who have undergone a significant change in their physical health.
Outpatient Pediatric Neuropsychology
Children who are experiencing difficulties with their thinking, schoolwork, behavior or mood due to a medical condition such as a brain injury should be referred for a Neuropsychology Evaluation with an adolescent expert.
The program strives to maximize functional independence for every level of care
Inpatient Care
Patients admitted for an injury or illness exhibiting signs indicating a change in their mental status or are in need of counseling services may be seen by a member of our psychology department. The inpatient team will facilitate appropriate services.
Outpatient Care
If problems with memory or an inability to think clearly have become a continuing problem, you may be a candidate for a Neuropsychological Evaluation to provide a diagnosis and plan of treatment.
