EMH embraces a holistic approach to mental health, and that can include the use of specialized tests to identify potential neurobehavioral disorders, such as Alzheimer\u2019s disease and other forms of dementia or depression, that can adversely affect a person\u2019s wellbeing.<\/p>\n

A neuropsychological evaluation includes a comprehensive battery of tests that measure how individuals think, feel, and behave, as well as a clinical interview. The evaluation provides valuable information on the reason(s)\/conditions that most likely explain why you think, feel, and behave the way that you do, i.e., a differential diagnosis. Neuropsychological tests can also clarify a patient\u2019s strengths and weaknesses and be used to create an individualized care program that identifies other care providers who are best suited to treat the patient. Most importantly, it can establish a timely baseline to measure improvement or decline over time.<\/p>\n
