What is neuropsychology?
The British Psychological Society (www.bps.org.uk) Division of Neuropsychology (DON) describes neuropsychology as, ‘Neuropsychology investigates the links between damage to different parts of the brain and changes in thinking, feeling and behaving.’
What do clinical neuropsychologists do?
According to the DON, Clinical Neuropsychologists apply this knowledge to assess and treat people with brain injuries and other conditions that affect brain functions.
Neuropsychologists are experts in psychology as applied to neurological conditions. We carry out assessments and treatments based on the scientific study of the brain and human behaviour. Clinical Neuropsychologists use this information to develop specific therapy and rehabilitation interventions for our clients.
HOW CAN A CLINICAL NEUROPSYCHOLOGIST HELP YOU?
Neuropsychological assessment can help with a range of issues including:
-
Evaluating the effect of the brain injury on cognitive and emotional functioning
-
Describing the effect of the brain injury on personality and behaviour
-
Identify the presence of Post -Traumatic Stress symptoms following brain injury
-
Measure the extent and severity of other psychological difficulties
-

-
Identify rehabilitation needs following brain injury
Following a neuropsychology assessment a tailored therapy or rehabilitation intervention plan is developed to address the neuropsychological issues identified.
INDIVIDUAL & FAMILY SUPPORT
A brain injury is a life changing event that affects both the individual and the family.
Do you or a member of your family struggle to cope with the impact of memory and organisational problems?
Do you find yourself getting angry more easily since the brain injury? Would you benefit from learning stress management techniques that take into account the unique effects of the brain injury?
