Susan F O'Brien Neuropsychologist

About Us

" Questions about your childs neuropsychological functioning can arise at any point between preschool and college. I specialize in child, adolescent and young adult neuropsychological evaluations; I do NOT provide therapy. My goal is to understand what may be interfering with your childs ability to be successful in various settings - academically, behaviorally and/or socially. Examples of common parental concerns include: problems with attention and concentration, problems with organization and planning, learning disabilities, memory issues, developmental delays/intellectual disabilities, and questions of Autism Spectrum Disorder. ", My evaluation will focus on identifying strengths and weaknesses regarding (a) cognitive/intellectual development (verbal, visual-spatial, reasoning skills), (b) executive functioning (i.e. attention, focus, organization, planning), (c) memory functioning, (d) social-cognitive functioning, and (e) academic skills assessment in reading, math and writing. , I strive to help parents and educators understand the examinee as a whole individual by providing both a feedback session and a report that is comprehensive but easy to understand. Please reach out for a free 15-minute phone consultation to have your questions about formal evaluations answered.
