A Neuropsychologist is a professional within the field of psychology with special expertise in the applied science of brain-behavior relationships. Clinical Neuropsychologists use this knowledge in the assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and/or rehabilitation of patients with neurological, medical, neurodevelopmental and psychiatric conditions, as well as other cognitive and learning disorders. Neuropsychologists use psychological, neurological, cognitive, behavioral, and physiological principles, techniques and tests to evaluate patients’ relationship to normal and abnormal central nervous system functioning. The Clinical Neuropsychologist also uses information provided by other medical/healthcare providers to identify and diagnose neurobehavioral disorders, and plan and implement intervention strategies.
