Beacon Neuropsychology is proud to offer adult neuropsychological evaluations and cognitive rehabilitation therapy, with both in-person and virtual options. We understand that many people are worried about their memory, attention, or other thinking abilities, or they may be concerned about a family member or loved one. We aim to provide hope and answers when our clients come to us for guidance in navigating challenging times in their lives, especially with regard to memory, attention, and other thinking skills. We can help you understand if you've had cognitive decline, the possible reasons, and what to do about it.

Our comprehensive assessments are designed to understand each unique person's background and life situation, and we create an individualized evaluation to address your specific concerns. We specialize in assessments for dementia (e.g., Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Lewy Body, vascular), stroke, concussion / brain injury, or brain tumor, as well as ADHD, etc.

Some clients may be searching for ways to improve their lives by learning how to cope with cognitive challenges, or to learn lifestyle approaches for improving or maintaining brain health. Our cognitive strategies and lifestyle coaching offer a number of possible solutions. Visit us our website to learn more at: www.beacon-neuropsychology.com .

Treatment Approach

Types of Therapy

Cognitive Rehabilitation / Compensatory Strategies
Culturally Sensitive
Psychological Testing and Evaluation

For assessment, I use research-supported methods to assess cognition and brain-behavior relationships. For Cog Rehab, I mainly use CogSMART, developed at the San Diego VA and UC San Diego. I also love to teach lifestyle strategies for brain and behavioral health. Cultural diversity is important to me, and I aim to provide culturally sensitive care. Note: I do not provide crisis services.
