Neuropsychological assessments use objective measures to determine the extent of your current thinking skills, taking into consideration your medical and mental health conditions as well as developmental and social situations. They are commonly used for individuals experiencing cognitive changes due to conditions such as dementia, stroke, brain injuries, and other neurological disorders, to help establish/clarify diagnosis and assist with treatment planning. They can also be used to assess strengths and weaknesses in your thinking abilities, as well as monitor changes in your cognition over time.
