At Windsor Allied Health, our Clinical Neuropsychological Assessments are designed to understand how brain function affects thinking, memory, attention, language, problem-solving, and emotional wellbeing.
These assessments provide valuable insights into a person’s cognitive strengths and challenges, helping guide diagnosis, treatment planning, rehabilitation, and everyday support.

Step 3: Comprehensive Assessment
In-depth testing, covering memory, attention, problem-solving, language, and mood/personality. Includes breaks and uses a combination of computer-based and paper tests.
Step 4: Scoring & Report Writing
