Benefits of Working With a Neuro-Psychologist

Behavioral health specialists in neuro-psychology support patients and their families as they navigate neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s Disease, Alzheimer’s Disease and other dementias, Multiple Sclerosis, or neurological injuries such as strokes or MTBI’s. We also help patients and their families in adjusting to a diagnosis or illness, increasing resiliency and coping strategies, and reducing some of the symptoms that can accompany neurological disorders such as depression, anxiety, anger or irritability and insomnia. We strive to be an integral part of the treatment team, working alongside our physician colleagues to provide holistic care, improve treatment outcomes, and enhance patients’ quality of life.
