Specialized Consultation Areas
Neurodegenerative Disorders
Objective differentiation between normal cognitive aging, Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), and various neurodegenerative etiologies (including Alzheimer’s disease, Frontotemporal Dementia, Dementia with Lewy Bodies, and Vascular Dementia).
Cerebrovascular Conditions
Comprehensive characterization of the neurocognitive sequelae associated with Stroke (CVA), Transient Ischemic Attacks (TIA), or chronic cerebrovascular disease.
Neuromedical & Systemic Conditions
Defining cognitive profiles associated with complex neurological, medical, and systemic conditions, including metabolic, endocrine, sleep/respiratory, oncological, autoimmune, infectious, seizure, movement, and demyelinating disorders.
Traumatic & Acquired Brain Injury
Objective documentation of cognitive symptoms following concussion/mild TBI, moderate-to-severe neurotrauma, or acquired brain injuries (e.g., anoxia/hypoxia) with dedicated return-to-work, return-to-school, or daily living recommendations.
Pre-Surgical Clearance & Post-Surgical Follow-Up
Baseline neurocognitive and psychosocial screenings for deep brain stimulation (DBS), epilepsy surgery, spinal cord stimulator (SCS), and solid organ transplant candidates, with longitudinal post-surgical tracking to monitor cognitive trajectories, as indicated.
Complex Psychiatric Presentations
Clarifying the “cognitive overhead” or intersection of executive deficits in treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, PTSD, severe mental illness, somatic symptom profiles, or functional cognitive presentations to help optimize psychiatric and psychotherapeutic interventions.
Medication & Substance Effects
Evaluating the neurocognitive impact of long-term substance use, toxic exposure, or complex polypharmacy.
Attention & Learning Profiles
Rigorous differential diagnosis of neurodevelopmental conditions, including adult ADHD and specific learning disorders, paired with evidence-based recommendations for workplace or academic accommodations.
