NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT
Neuropsychology is the area of psychology and neuroscience that studies the relationship between the central nervous system, cognitive functioning and behavior.
Neuropsychological assessment is a complementary diagnosis to clinical interventions aimed at different pathological conditions, resulting from changes in the central nervous system, whether or not there are diseases. It covers the investigation of changes in mood and behavior and the impact of these changes on the patient's daily, occupational, social and personal life.
Objectives of neuropsychological assessment:
• Assist in the differential diagnosis of neurological conditions and psychiatric disorders.
• Investigate the nature and degree of cognitive and behavioral changes.
• Monitor the evolution of neurological and psychiatric conditions, medical and surgical clinical treatments.
• Plan rehabilitation programs, aimed at patients' cognitive, behavioral and daily life changes.
Neuropsychological assessment is not limited to the application and correction of cognitive tests and instruments. It enables clinical reasoning regarding diagnostic hypotheses, identifies in detail the type and extent of cognitive change, discriminates between preserved and compromised cognitive functions, the presence of behavioral and mood changes, as well as their impact on life activities. daily, occupational, social and personal life of the individual.
After tracking and identification through tests, interviews and standardized instruments, a personalized report is delivered with guidance on how to proceed to obtain more effective results in each proposed treatment.
PARENTAL GUIDANCE
It is the therapeutic process that involves parents in the dynamic therapeutic process of their children. It is training for parents to learn how to relate in a healthy way with their children who have some type of disorder, especially externalizing disorders.
The work of the cognitive behavioral psychologist will be focused on effectiveness with treatment with less criticism from parents, more effective commands, parental problem-solving skills, among others.
In empirically based Cognitive Behavioral Therapies, there is an emphasis on participatory treatment between the patient and their family, in which the therapist plays the role of facilitator by encouraging parents to employ educational practices suited to their children's needs. Furthermore, the therapist, by sharing with the family the understanding of the difficulties and problems they are going through, encourages the emergence of feelings of understanding and hope in the parents and the child.
This is an extremely relevant factor because in many cases, the family finds themselves powerless in the face of the child's difficulties, they often believe they are incorrigible. That is why it takes them a while to feel encouraged, in therapy, to take an increasingly active position in the model. of their children's education, making the child and their parents agents of their own change.
