Jimmy came to us as a 10-year-old who had been diagnosed with four different mental health disorders – ADHD, disruptive mood dysregulation disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, and depression – prior to coming to our clinic.
Despite having struggled with these many issues throughout his life, he was a bright and pleasant boy. However, the medications the doctors had prescribed in an attempt address his significant outbursts were simply not working.
During our evaluation with Jimmy, we found that his correct diagnosis was autism spectrum disorder. It was one diagnosis that covered ALL of his symptoms.
I sat down with Jimmy’s parents to discuss the results, and the stories they told me about Jimmy’s behaviors were very consistent with what we had found during testing.
Several months later, I spoke with Jimmy’s parents. They both expressed gratitude for the evaluation we had performed which had been helpful for their family. Jimmy’s mom said they had been having these issues since Jimmy was two years old but that now they better understood how to help him.
They said that because they had an accurate diagnosis, Jimmy was now on the right medications. They described how this had really helped him to be more successful. While he had not yet begun to receive our recommended services, they would be starting soon.

Neuropsychological testing is a detailed evaluation that measures how your brain is working in areas like memory, attention, language, mood, learning, and problem solving. It helps identify patterns that explain changes in daily functioning and gives clear guidance for treatment or support.
A neuropsychological evaluation can show how well different parts of your brain are functioning. It can help explain difficulties with focus, memory, mood, behavior, learning, or cognitive changes after illness or injury. The results point to strengths, weaknesses, and areas that may benefit from support.
