Philosophy
Neuropsychology
Dr. Vassallo has a tradition of providing comprehensive psychological and neuropsychological assessments of seniors, adults, adolescents and children. She has extensive experience in performing evaluations of intelligence (IQ), personality, adjustment, learning disabilities, memory problem, dementia, language skills, nonverbal skills, sensory and motor skills, executive functions, and the neuropsychological consequences of stroke, neurological illnesses and injuries.
Her approach is a client-centered and problem-centered model, employing a flexible-battery process approach to address your specific needs. While understanding the causes and extent of cognitive impairment is important, providing realistic recommendations for treatment, accomodations, and long-term expectations is vital.
Payment Options
Dr. Vassallo no longer accepts insurance for payment of neuropsychological services. She accepts a limited number of self-pay and forensic cases; therefore, availability is likely to be limited.
