Our Continuing and New Services The Aging Center offers neuropsychological evaluations and other mental health services exclusively for older adults and their caregivers who are Medicare-eligible as well as those eligible for a reduced fee based on household income. Services include cognitive screens, memory clinic screens, comprehensive neuropsychological evaluations, individual therapy, and caregiver individual and group services.

Neuropsychological evaluation: This includes a 45- to 60-minute interview, 1-4 hours of memory and cognitive testing, an interview with someone who knows the client well, and a review of available external records. This thorough evaluation can assess whether a cognitive problem is present and what is likely causing it. It also provides a comprehensive baseline to be used for comparisons with follow-up screens or other evaluations. The client receives a detailed report that can be given to other professionals (such as physicians and attorneys). Clients can either pay for student-provided services on a sliding scale, ranging from $70-$1,400, depending on household income/assets, or see a licensed psychologist, who can accept some insurances on a limited basis. All student services are supervised by licensed clinical psychologists.
