Comprehensive Neuropsychological Services

At Butterfield Neuropsychology, we provide a wide range of neurological services for adults of all ages. Our comprehensive evaluations include cognitive testing to assess cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning. We help identify cognitive changes related to memory decline, assist in diagnosing conditions such as Alzheimer's and dementia, and develop treatment plans for issues like brain injury, concussion, Parkinson’s, and ADHD. Our neuropsychological evaluations offer personalized recommendations for brain health, memory assessment, treatment, and accommodations, as well as tracking cognitive changes over time. We are dedicated to compassionate, evidence-based care. Medicare and self-pay options are available, with assistance for out-of-network reimbursement. View our printable brochure by clicking here.

Memory Disorders

We specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of memory disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and dementia. Our comprehensive evaluations include memory assessment and cognitive testing to determine whether perceived changes are due to normal age-related decline or other factors, such as brain injury or concussion. Our dedicated team provides tailored care for patients and their families, offering education based on research evidence on ways to delay cognitive decline, as well as support resources. Additionally, we address conditions like Parkinson's and ensure thorough neuropsychological evaluations are part of our approach.

Movement Disorders

Our team specializes in the evaluation and treatment of movement disorders, including Parkinson's disease, dementia, Alzheimer's, and atypical Parkinsonian syndromes (CBD, MSA, PSP). We also address essential tremor, Huntington's disease, and the effects of brain injury, including concussion. Our approach involves comprehensive cognitive testing and memory assessments to evaluate memory decline, and we work closely with patients to create tailored evaluations and individualized treatment plans that may include neuropsychological evaluation.

Primary Progressive Aphasia

We specialize in the evaluation of language changes associated with conditions such as Alzheimer's, brain injury, and dementia. This includes assessing individuals who experience word-finding trouble, dysfluency of speech, or changes in semantic knowledge. Our team is dedicated to helping identify whether there is a primary progressive aphasia (PPA), which subtype is present, and to provide patients and families with a comprehensive understanding of this diagnosis. We also offer cognitive testing and memory assessments to address concerns related to memory decline, including those arising from concussion or Parkinson's disease, and conduct thorough memory testing through neuropsychological evaluations.

Brain Injury (TBI) & Stroke

We specialize in assessing various severities of brain injury, including mild concussions to severe TBI, while also providing cognitive testing to evaluate memory decline. Our focus extends to educating individuals on ways to rebuild brain pathways and promote brain health, which is vital for conditions like Alzheimer's, dementia, and Parkinson's disease. Additionally, we offer comprehensive memory assessments and neuropsychological evaluations to help understand and support brain health.

Complex Medical Conditions

Many individuals with a complex medical history, including those with Alzheimers, Parkinsons, or a history of brain injury and concussion, notice cognitive changes. We can tailor cognitive testing and neuropsychological evaluations to identify cognitive strengths and weaknesses, aiding in memory assessment and addressing issues related to memory decline or dementia.

ADHD

For individuals concerned about Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), we will conduct a thorough evaluation of symptoms while also considering other conditions such as dementia, cognitive testing for memory decline, or the effects of a brain injury from a concussion that may mimic ADHD. Additionally, we will rule out any potential influences from neuropsychological evaluations related to Alzheimer's or Parkinson's diseases.
