[QUOTE="SRL, post: 369988, member: 701"] A neuropsychologist is involved in the assessment and diagnostic phase of the process. They also will make referrals to other specialists (such as a psychiatrist or occupational therapist). If they're in practice with other specialists they may consult with them as part of the process. They do not prescribe medications and are not involved in ongoing counseling or therapy, however they might suggest bringing the child back in X number of years for followup assessments. Hope this helps. Check the Children's Hospital websites in your area to see if any neuropsychologists are on staff. If you can't find anyone that way, then google the nearby large cities along with the term "pediatric neuropsychologist". If your insurance doesn't list anyone, they still may cover someone out of network if there's not a representative within network. Usually that would take a letter from your pediatrician to make happen. [/QUOTE]
