Neuropsychological evaluations can be a reliable tool for diagnosing (or ruling out) autism spectrum disorders, learning dysfunctions and ADHD in adolescents. Teens who experience emotional, behavioral, social, or/and academic challenges could gain from assessment and the consequent advice and treatment plans for better performance at school, at home, and in a social setting.
Our trusted neuropsychological tests, available at our Arlington area center, for teenagers aged 16+, address concerns related to academic struggles, social skills, executive functioning, attention, concussions, emotion regulation, Autism Spectrum Disorder and ADHD assessment and treatment solutions.
We do tests on teens and adults for autism spectrum disorders by using the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, 2nd Edition (ADOS-2) to evaluate applicable cognitive characteristics like language skills and social interaction.
Our emotional well being can have a huge impact on our overall health. Our health psychologists employ psychology-based behavior change concepts in order to help patients cope with a new or existing diagnosis and implement lasting, helpful changes in their lifestyle to encourage optimal health and wellbeing.
Sleep problems are extremely widespread amongst adults in America. CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) for insomnia is a method to help you improve your sleep by fine-tuning your feelings, thinking patterns and behaviors as they relate to sleep.
