About NCS

​​​At NCS, we are dedicated to providing evidence-based care that recognizes the unique strengths and challenges of each individual and family. Our team brings expertise in neuropsychology, clinical psychology, and developmental science.

​

We specialize in working with individuals affected by neurological and neurodevelopmental conditions, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), learning disorders, brain injury, Tourette disorder, epilepsy, and genetic conditions. Across all of our work, our goal is to deliver clear evaluations and practical recommendations that help families, schools, and professionals make informed decisions and achieve meaningful outcomes. In addition to clinical services, we also provide expert consultation and forensic review in legal contexts.
