Psychological and neuropsychological assessments
At Charlottenlund Privathospital, we offer comprehensive psychological and neuropsychological examinations of children, adolescents and adults. Our goal is to provide an in-depth understanding of individual needs and resources.
What are psychological and neuropsychological assessments?
Psychological and neuropsychological assessments are systematic evaluations of mental, cognitive, and emotional functions. The purpose is to identify strengths, challenges, and potential diagnoses in order to offer targeted recommendations and solutions. At Charlottenlund Privathospital, we use highly recognized, standardized tests to ensure valid and reliable results.
What does a survey include?
A psychological or neuropsychological examination typically includes a combination of interviews, observations, and testing. The tests may include assessments of memory, attention, executive functions, and emotional states. The results are compiled into a written report that is reviewed with the client.
When is a psychological or neuropsychological examination relevant?
A psychological or neuropsychological examination can be relevant in many situations. It can be in cases of difficulty concentrating, suspicion of ADHD, learning disabilities, or the need to clarify work ability. At Charlottenlund Privathospital, we offer tailored examinations that take into account the needs of the individual.
Typical issues
Typical issues include memory problems after illness or accident, suspected developmental disorders such as autism or ADHD, and the need for clarification before choosing treatment or schooling.
Our testing methods and tools
At Charlottenlund Privathospital, we use recognized testing methods such as WISC-V and WAIS for giftedness and neuropsychological tests. These tools provide a detailed picture of cognitive functions such as working memory, processing speed, and language comprehension.
WISC-V and WAIS
The WISC-V is used for children and adolescents aged 6-16 and provides insight into their cognitive profile. The WAIS is used for people over 16 and assesses general intelligence level as well as cognitive strengths and weaknesses.
Investigations into work-related issues
A significant part of our work is about clarifying work ability and future opportunities in the labor market. We have experience in preparing studies that can be used as a basis for municipal decisions and job clarification processes.
Municipal decisions
The surveys can be included in assessments for flexible work, disability pension and sickness benefit cases. We always adapt the process to the specific issue.
