Adolescent Neuropsychology

We support teens through key transitions, assessing cognitive and emotional functioning and helping with issues such as anxiety, executive functioning, and academic stress.

At Neupath Neuropsychology, we offer a range of services to adolescents including comprehensive neuropsychological assessments. These assessments may involve assessment of intellectual ability, attention and memory skills, and academic performance.

Some of the reasons adolescents are referred for assessment include:

  • Academic delays and learning difficulties
  • Difficulties with school attendance and/or school refusal
  • Attention difficulties such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
  • Investigation for modifications to curriculum and/or remedial supports
  • General intellectual ability assessments (WISC-V assessments) for students who are being considered for funding at school under the intellectual disability or language disorder criteria.
  • Assessments to support applications to the VCAA for Special Arrangements (such as additional time, use of computer or scribe) in the VCE examinations
  • Assessments to support applications to the Special Entry Access Scheme (SEAS) for university entry and post-school study

About Neuropsychology

Clinical Neuropsychologists assess how brain function affects thinking, learning, and behaviour. They work with conditions like ADHD, brain injury, and learning difficulties. Assessments explore cognitive strengths and weaknesses and may involve several sessions.

Assessment Process

Neuropsychological assessments explore thinking, learning, memory, and attention, and are tailored to each child or young adult. They include interviews, cognitive testing, and a feedback session with a detailed report and recommendations. No referral is needed to book.
