Cognitive Rehabilitation Therapy

Cognitive Rehabilitation Therapy focuses on improving or compensating for areas of the brain that may be declining due to injury or illnesses such as Alzheimer’s disease. This kind of therapy might address relearning skills, teaching you ways to compensate for difficulties, or just “exercising” what you already have to try to slow or stop declining brain function.

Neuropsychological Assessment

Neuropsychological assessment includes a comprehensive, detailed assessment of intellectual, cognitive, and emotional functioning, followed by treatment recommendations. Afterward, Dr. Siders will schedule an appointment to review the results of the assessment and answer any questions you may have. He provides a full report to the referring provider.

Neuropsychological assessment is appropriate for those who are having problems with memory, concentration, or learning. Common diagnoses for those who are referred for assessment are:

  • Traumatic brain injury
  • Concussive syndrome
  • Neurodegenerative disorders, including
    • Alzheimer’s disease
    • Mild cognitive impairment
    • Lewy body disease
    • Parkinson’s disease
    • Many others
  • Stroke
  • Tumor
  • ADHD
  • Seizures of various etiologies

Psychological Assessment

Psychological assessment consists of a thorough assessment of emotional and social functioning and brief testing to assess for cognitive contributions to emotional dysfunction. An informed diagnosis is made along with treatment recommendations. Afterward, Dr. Siders will prepare a full report, schedule an appointment to review the results of the assessment, and answer any questions you may have.

Neuropsychologically Informed Therapy

Neuropsychologically informed therapy is the application of brain/behavior relationships to psychotherapy. Conditions that affect brain function are often accompanied by emotional problems either due to coping with loss of functioning or the disruption of brain systems. Dr. Siders combines the latest psychotherapeutic techniques with a detailed knowledge of how brain systems affect emotions to educate you and help you take active steps toward recovery.
