Diagnostic & Testing Providers in Needham, Massachusetts

Boston Neuropsychological Services offers neuropsychological evaluations and counseling from our Needham office, with specialists for every age group. Our clinicians trained at places such as Children's Hospital of Boston, Harvard University, and the Yale Child Study Center. Evaluations include neuropsychological, neurodevelopmental, autism spectrum, IQ, gifted and talented, and concussion assessments, as well as school Independent Educational Evaluations. Each evaluation moves from a phone consultation to intake, testing, and a feedback meeting. After testing, we write a report that explains the factors that limit success and gives clear recommendations for home and school. If you would like, we will join you at a meeting with your school district to help write an Early Intervention plan, IEP, or 504 plan, and we offer follow-up counseling after the evaluation.

Our Needham practice offers neuropsychological evaluations for preschool-aged children through young adults, serving families in MetroWest and eastern Massachusetts. Dr. Kate Smith leads each evaluation, with a focus on cognition, attention and memory, executive functions, academic learning, and social and emotional functioning. We look at how a child's brain is developing and functioning so parents and schools understand both strengths and areas of need, and so support can be planned around them. Dr. Smith previously saw clients at Dana Group Associates in Needham and North Shore Medical Center in Salem. We accept Blue Cross Blue Shield, and families with other coverage can choose private pay.
