Neuro Psychology

Support with thinking, memory, and emotional wellbeing after injury.

About Neuro Psychology

At Resilience Neuro Specialists, our neuropsychologists support people experiencing cognitive, emotional and behavioural changes following a neurological illness or injury.

Neuropsychology helps individuals understand how changes to the brain may be affecting memory, concentration, mood, behaviour, relationships and everyday life.

Every neuroosychology assessment and rehabilitation programme is tailored to the individual. Our aim is to help people better understand their difficulties, develop practical strategies and improve their confidence, independence and quality of life.

What is Neuro Psychology

Neuropsychology is a specialist area of psychology concerned with the relationship between the brain, behaviour, thinking and emotional wellbeing.

Understanding how it works

Neuropsychological assessment brings together information about the person’s medical history, current difficulties, strengths, goals and daily functioning. It may include interviews, questionnaires and structured cognitive assessments.

The results can help identify areas of strength and difficulty, explain changes that may have occurred following an injury or diagnosis, and guide an individual rehabilitation plan.

Neuropsychological rehabilitation may include practical strategies for managing memory, attention, fatigue, anxiety, low mood, frustration or changes in behaviour. It can also help individuals adjust to changes in their abilities, identity, relationships and future plans.

Our neuropsychologists work closely with the wider rehabilitation team to ensure that psychological and cognitive needs are considered throughout the person’s recovery.

Who can benefit?

You may benefit from specialist neuropsychology support if you are experiencing:

  • Memory or concentration problems following a brain injury or stroke
  • Changes in mood, behaviour or personality after neurological illness or trauma
  • Difficulties with planning, organisation or problem-solving
  • Anxiety, low mood, frustration or emotional distress related to a neurological condition
  • Fatigue, reduced motivation or difficulty returning to everyday routines
  • Problems adjusting to changes in independence, work or relationships
  • Cognitive changes associated with multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease or other neurological conditions
  • Difficulty understanding or managing the effects of a complex injury or diagnosis
  • Family or relationship difficulties linked to cognitive, emotional or behavioural changes

We can also support families, carers and professionals to better understand the effects of neurological injury and respond to them consistently.

Depending on your needs and goals, neuropsychology may help you achieve:

  • A clearer understanding of cognitive and emotional changes
  • Practical strategies for memory, attention and organisation

  • Increased confidence in managing daily life
  • Support with adjustment, identity and future planning

Specialist, practical and person-centred support

Our neuropsychologists provide evidence-based assessment and rehabilitation for people with a wide range of neurological conditions and complex injuries.

We recognise that every person’s experience is different. Two people with the same diagnosis may have very different cognitive, emotional and behavioural needs. We therefore take time to understand the whole person, including their home life, relationships, work, interests and rehabilitation goals.

Support may include:

  • Neuropsychological assessment
  • Cognitive rehabilitation
  • Memory and organisational strategies
  • Psychological therapy adapted for neurological needs
  • Emotional adjustment and coping support
  • Fatigue and stress management
  • Behavioural support and formulation
  • Education for clients, families and carers
  • Advice to rehabilitation teams and other professionals
  • Goal setting and rehabilitation planning

Sessions are tailored to the individual and may take place at our Resilience Therapy Centre in Warwickshire, at home, online, in a care setting or elsewhere in the community.

Our neuropsychologists can work alongside neurophysiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, dietitians and other professionals to provide coordinated multidisciplinary rehabilitation.
