Whether struggling with emotions, behaviors, relationships, or other obstacles, feeling stuck or exhausted can be difficult. At Ascend Behavioral Center, we provide psychological and neuropsychological evaluations to clarify diagnoses and guide treatment. Our therapy services support individuals, couples, and families across the lifespan, addressing concerns with mood, behavior, relationships, and more.

We provide psychological and neuropsychological testing for ages one and up to assess cognitive, learning, emotional, developmental, and behavioral concerns, including ADHD, autism, mood disorders, and learning difficulties.
