A Cognitive Evaluation is a structured assessment that looks at how you think, learn, remember, and solve problems. It may include standardized tests, interviews, and observation to evaluate areas like attention span, memory, reasoning, language, and executive function. This process helps uncover cognitive strengths and challenges that may be affecting your mental health.
Mental health conditions often go hand-in-hand with cognitive difficulties—like trouble focusing, forgetfulness, or mental fatigue. A Cognitive Evaluation helps us understand the full picture of how your brain is functioning. It’s especially useful for tailoring therapy to individuals dealing with ADHD, depression, anxiety, trauma, or learning differences.
Knowing how your brain works allows your care team to adjust treatment in ways that meet you where you are. A Cognitive Evaluation gives insight into what’s getting in the way of your progress, helping you learn more effective coping strategies, improve focus, and build self-awareness. It empowers you to engage in therapy with clarity and confidence.
