Neuropsychological Evaluations for Adults
Maybe your physician recommended "neuropsych testing" and you're not sure what that means. Maybe you have questions about your memory or attention. Either way, you're in the right place. A neuropsychological evaluation is a detailed, evidence-based assessment of thinking that answers a specific question about your mind and turns the answer into practical next steps. Dr. Joy Clark is a board-certified clinical neuropsychologis, seeing adults in person in Belton and by telehealth across PSYPACT states.

What to Expect During an Evaluation
|
Most adult evaluations begin with an interview, often by secure video, where Dr. Clark discusses your history, concerns, and goals. From there, testing is tailored to your needs and usually scheduled for a separate visit, which keeps you fresh and the testing focused. Some focused adult evaluations can be completed in a single same-day visit. After testing, Dr. Clark prepares a report and meets with you to review the findings in plain language and discuss clear recommendations. You receive a copy of your report.
