What We Evaluate
Every evaluation begins with a clinical interview and ends with a written report and feedback session — translating data into real direction.
Adults, adolescents, and children. Objective cognitive testing that goes beyond checklists — distinguishing ADHD from anxiety, learning differences, and co-occurring conditions.
Comprehensive assessment using ADOS-2, standardized questionnaires, and neuropsychological profiling. For children, teens, and adults seeking answers for the first time.
Dyslexia, dyscalculia, written expression disorders, and processing differences. Assessment that identifies the specific nature and degree of difficulty — and produces actionable documentation.
Planning, organization, working memory, cognitive flexibility, and impulse control. Particularly relevant for professionals, executives, attorneys, and high-achieving individuals whose challenges don't fit a tidy label.
Trauma, PTSD, and adverse experiences can produce measurable cognitive effects. We evaluate the intersection of emotional and neuropsychological functioning — including for veterans with service-connected conditions.
Memory concerns, mild cognitive impairment, and dementia evaluation. Dr. Furr has conducted cognitive assessments for geriatric patients in hospital settings — bringing that depth of experience to our clinical practice.
Many gifted students also have learning differences or ADHD — a profile that can look confusing without proper assessment. We identify the full picture.
Bar exam, LSAT, MCAT, GRE, USMLE, and graduate school accommodation applications require clinical documentation that meets specific evidentiary standards. Our reports are built for this purpose.
Early assessment for independent school applications, developmental concerns, and school readiness. Dr. Furr has evaluated children for the Educational Records Bureau (ERB) and elite NYC independent preschools.
Clinical Authority
Neuropsychological testing is only as good as the clinician interpreting it. The difference between a thorough evaluation and a form-based checklist is significant — clinically, legally, and practically.
Psychologists are the only licensed mental health professionals authorized to administer, score, interpret, and provide legal or educational opinions based on neuropsychological testing. This is not a technicality — it is the foundation of why a psychological evaluation carries weight with schools, employers, courts, and licensing bodies.
Dr. Furr's doctoral training included specialization in advanced assessment methodology, including the Exner Comprehensive System for the Rorschach Inkblot Test — one of the most rigorous and clinically rich assessment approaches available, and taught in only a handful of doctoral programs nationally.
He has conducted hundreds of neuropsychological and cognitive evaluations across the full lifespan — from preschool through geriatric assessment — in private practice, specialized educational programs, and hospital settings.
Evaluator for the program supporting high-achieving low-SES minority students gaining access to elite NYC independent schools. Assessments required to meet the highest standards of rigor and fairness.
Assessment for elite independent preschool and school admissions in New York City — one of the most demanding and consequential testing contexts in early childhood education.
Neuropsychological evaluation and consultation for university students and programs across three countries — producing reports accepted by international institutions.
Cognitive evaluations for geriatric and dementia patients in clinical settings — requiring the highest level of assessment rigor and differential diagnostic precision.
The Rorschach Inkblot Test has a reputation for mystery — but in the hands of a clinician trained in the Exner Comprehensive System, it is a rigorously validated, empirically grounded instrument that provides a depth of insight into cognitive style, personality organization, and emotional functioning that few other measures can match.
Training in the Exner system is intensive and specialized, offered in only a small number of doctoral programs. It is the kind of training that separates a surface-level evaluation from one that actually captures how a person's mind works — which matters most when the stakes are high: legal proceedings, contested diagnoses, complex presentations, and evaluations that will shape educational or professional trajectories.
Who We Evaluate
From a three-year-old being assessed for preschool readiness to an adult navigating cognitive changes — every stage of life is within our scope.
School readiness, developmental assessment, ERB evaluations, early identification of learning differences and giftedness.
ADHD, autism, learning disabilities, school accommodations, IEPs, 504 plans, and twice-exceptional profiles.
Late-identified ADHD and autism, executive functioning, professional licensing accommodations, bar exam, LSAT, MCAT, cognitive effects of trauma.
Memory concerns, mild cognitive impairment, dementia evaluation, differential diagnosis of age-related cognitive change.
Insurance & Access
The majority of NYC neuropsychological practices require full payment upfront and leave billing entirely to you. We operate differently.
Most independent neuropsychologists in New York City are out-of-network. Patients pay thousands of dollars out of pocket, receive a receipt, and are expected to navigate insurance reimbursement on their own — a process that can take months and often results in partial payment or denial.
We are in-network with major plans and have a dedicated billing team that handles verification, authorization, direct claims submission, and follow-up. We tell you what to expect before your first appointment — not after.
For clients with limited coverage or self-pay situations, we customize testing batteries to maximize clinical value within your budget. Comprehensive does not have to mean one-size-fits-all. We also offer online, in-person, and hybrid formats — making high-quality testing accessible whether you are in Manhattan or in Japan.
Major commercial plans accepted in New York. We verify your specific benefits before scheduling.
Accepted for eligible veterans and military families. We assist with FMP documentation and claims.
We check deductibles, copays, and pre-authorization requirements before you commit to anything.
We submit and track your claims. If there is a problem, we deal with it — not you.
Customized testing batteries for clients without adequate coverage. Targeted or comprehensive — designed around your goals and budget.
What You Receive
A neuropsychological report is only valuable if it works in the real world. We write with that purpose from the first page to the last.
Education
Extended time, separate testing rooms, preferential seating, reduced distraction environments, and other IEP or 504 plan supports. Reports meet the documentation standards required by K-12 schools, universities, and graduate programs.
Professional Licensing
Professional licensing and standardized testing bodies have specific evidentiary requirements for accommodation documentation. We know those requirements and write reports that satisfy them.
Workplace
Flexible scheduling, remote work authorization, assistive technology, noise reduction, extended deadlines. Our reports provide the clinical foundation that HR departments and disability offices require.
Legal & Forensic
Evaluations conducted with the rigor and documentation standards required for legal purposes — including custody proceedings, disability determinations, and competency assessments.
VA & Military
Reports that accurately document cognitive functioning, diagnostic impressions, and functional impairment in the language the VA system uses — informed by Dr. Furr's experience as a former VA C&P Examiner.
Academic
Pass/fail grading, course load modifications, technology supports, and program requirement waivers. We work with students and institutions to navigate the documentation process from start to finish.
