What is Clinical Neuropsychology?
Clinical Neuropsychology is a specialist area of psychology that focuses on the assessment of brain function. Clinical Neuropsychologists have expertise in understanding how developmental, psychological and neurological conditions affect an individual’s thinking skills (e.g. attention, learning, memory, executive functioning etc), emotions, behaviour and daily functioning.
Clinical neuropsychologists undertake specialist postgraduate university training before being endorsed under national law, meaning they have recognised additional qualifications and expertise in clinical neuropsychology.
