Neuropsychology & Psychology

Neuropsychology and Clinical Psychology

Clinical Neuropsychologists provide specialist assessment and treatment after brain injury including aspects of cognition (mental abilities), emotional adjustment, behavioural change and limited insight. They also help facilitate rehabilitation in other areas and guide other therapists and family when barriers arise.

Clinical Psychologists work with a variety of conditions which often arise after brain injury and traumatic injury. These include anxiety or depressive disorders, substance abuse, challenging behaviour, anger management, family therapy and adjustment to physical conditions including orthopaedic and spinal injury. They also undertake assessment to formulate a treatment plan and work closely with the client, family and support team.

 

We provide in-house Neuropsychology and Clinical psychology. Our psychology team have a wide experience of clinical assessment, treatment/rehabilitation, and medico-legal assessment. We offer medico legal neuropsychology reporting provided by Dr Andrew Harrison (Consultant Clinical Neuropsychologist) who has extensive experience preparing reports for the Courts in Scotland and England and is regularly instructed by both sides of the litigation process. His CV is available on request.

 

Dr Harrison accepts instruction for adults who have or are suspected to have sustained an acquired brain injury or who have been diagnosed with another neurological condition resulting in neuropsychological complications. We also accepts instructions for clients who sustained an acquired brain injury in childhood and now require an assessment with a specialist in adult neuropsychology.

 

Dr Harrison accepts medico legal instruction from across the UK and conducts examinations at a variety of locations including our offices in Edinburgh, domiciliary visits or at instructing parties’ premises, depending on the needs of the client. Our fees are charged at a fixed hourly rate with the total fee calculated on a case-by-case basis depending on the extent of medical records and other documentation for review, travel costs etc.
