How Does Neurology Differ From Neuropsychology?

Neurologists focus on diagnosing and treating physical symptoms (e.g., tremor, weakness, seizures) and causes of brain disorders, often using medication. In contrast, neuropsychologists focus on diagnosing and treating the cognitive (e.g., memory, attention, language) symptoms of brain disorders, without medication. Both specialists could diagnose and treat a patient for different aspects of the same disorder. The neurologist would focus on diagnosing/treating the physical aspects, while the neuropsychologist would concentrate on diagnosing/treating the cognitive symptoms of the disorder.

Finding A Psychologist Or Psychiatrist

Based on your response of wanting to be assessed for psychological/emotional symptoms rather than cognitive (thinking) problems, we think you should seek services from a psychologist or psychiatrist, NOT a neuropsychologist. We only have neuropsychologists on staff at Minder.

How Does Psychology or Psychiatry

Differ From Neuropsychology?

The main difference between psychology/psychiatry and neuropsychology is in their approaches to how they address psychological conditions. Psychologists and psychiatrists focus on emotions (e.g, depression, anxiety) and use talk therapy and medications, while neuropsychologists focus on cognitive and brain disorders (e.g., Alzheimer's, autism, learning disorder, traumatic brain injury) and implement cognitive rehabilitation best practices. Most people can benefit from a psychologist or psychiatrist. However, you would generally only seek the services of a neuropsychologist in the case of a brain-altering condition or an event that has impacted your cognition, memory, or language skills.
