Why Wasatch Pediatric
Neuropsychology?

Wasatch Pediatric Neuropsychology provides comprehensive neuropsychological and psychological evaluations for children, adolescents, and emerging adults to understand how brain development affects learning, behavior, attention, emotions, and daily functioning. Through this process, we identify a young person’s unique strengths and challenges, offering insight into the cognitive factors that shape how they learn, regulate emotions, and navigate daily life. We translate complex, brain-based findings into clear, practical guidance for families, providers, and schools to better understand the reason behind the struggles. This understanding allows for targeted supports that promote skill-building, confidence, and greater independence. Our goal is to help children move forward with greater success, so their challenges no longer define them, and their strengths guide confident progress.

Partnering with Parents and Caregivers

Parenting a child with a medical issue, disability or developmental difference is rewarding, challenging, and sometimes overwhelming. Families often navigate uncertainty about development, complex emotions, frequent appointments, and the need for ongoing advocacy within medical, educational, and community systems. Understanding a child’s thinking, behavior, and emotions can feel like holding mismatched pieces of a puzzle. A comprehensive assessment helps identify and connect those pieces. By identifying strengths and challenges and translating them into practical guidance, neuropsychological evaluation guides intervention. With meaningful insights and individualized recommendations, parents can make informed decisions, access the right supports, and help their child grow, adapt, and thrive.

What People Are Saying

Meeting with our doctor and doing the testing helped us understand in a deeper way how our child’s brain works and what tools might be helpful for our child and family. Her demeanor and persona put our child at ease right away. The time she took to collaborate with us when relaying the results was supportive and valuable.
-Parents of 11 yo
Because of her injury, our child has multiple difficulties, and for the first time we felt that someone truly understood the whole picture. Our doctor was patient and flexible in making the testing fit our daughter’s abilities, which helped them work well together to get it done. She took the time to talk with many other providers and visit her school to really understand all the parts. As parents, we finally understand challenges that had felt overwhelming for years. We communicate better with her therapists and school, and the doctor even helped them understand our daughter’s unique special needs. She is finally progressing, and we are so happy to have that direction.
-Mother of 5 yo
I appreciate these evaluations that give me important clarity on my patient’s multifaceted issues. They give me the ability to make informed decisions about care, collaborate with family support their child effectively throughout development.
-Pediatrician
Her careful attention to detail uncovered insights that were so helpful in understanding our son’s needs. She guided our family with compassion and offered recommendations that made a meaningful difference in supporting his mental health and development. It was clear that she is both highly knowledgeable and genuinely dedicated to helping the families she works with, and we are truly grateful for her guidance and support.
-Parent of 9 yo
Rather than only being confused and frustrated, our doctor taught us how our daughter’s multiple disabilities play a role in her unique needs that can be managed as she transitions to adulthood. Our family feels empowered to help her pursue what she wants in the next step in her life, and ours.
-Father of 18 yo
I find neuropsych testing extremely helpful in better understanding the cognitive underpinnings of behavior and emotions. Insight into cognitive issues that impact academic learning and executive function helps to better understand challenges in mastering developmental tasks. With this information, there are effective behavioral and medication management plans that allow children to gain greater success and mastery. As they develop mastery, the issues no longer define them or how they connect with others
