Comprehensive Neuropsychological Testing in Michigan
Did your doctor recommend a neuropsychological evaluation? Insight Behavioral Health can help!Neuropsychological testing in Michigan is used to assess cognitive function and behavior when a doctor suspects a brain impairment. The evaluation process is designed to assess your cognitive and functional abilities. It may include answering questions, recalling specific information, drawing pictures, and solving puzzles. We may also ask you questions about yourself and evaluate how you respond.
Given the length of this test, it’s important to hold this in a non-stressful environment with friendly and patient staff and healthcare providers. At Insight, we designed our neuropsychological evaluation to ensure it won’t cause unnecessary stress or pressure.
