WHAT IS NEUROPSYCHOLOGY?

Neuropsychology focuses on the relationships between the brain and behavior. Neuropsychologists conduct evaluations to characterize behavioral and cognitive changes resulting from central nervous system disease or injury, like traumatic brain injury or substance use disorder. Some neuropsychologists also focus on the remediation of or adaptation to these behavioral and mental changes and other symptoms.
