Neuropsychological Assessment Services
Neuropsychology is a discipline that studies the links between the brain and behavior by assessing cognitive functions such as attention, memory, language, and executive functions. It provides a better understanding of the difficulties encountered in daily life, whether related to a neurodevelopmental disorder, brain injury, cognitive aging, or a mental health disorder. Through a thorough assessment, Dr. Diab identifies each individual's strengths and challenges in order to propose tailored strategies to optimize their functioning and improve their quality of life. Whether for children, adolescents, adults, or seniors, Dr. Diab offers personalized support aimed at better understanding and managing cognitive and emotional challenges. To do so, she relies on a thorough assessment and intervention that includes tailored recommendations to promote independence, well-being, and fulfillment in everyday life.
