A neuropsychiatric assessment explores the connection between brain function and mental health. It helps diagnose and treat conditions where emotional, behavioural, or cognitive symptoms may be linked to neurological, medical, or neurodevelopmental factors.
This assessment is for people experiencing cognitive, emotional, or behavioural symptoms that may have a neurological basis. You may benefit if you’re experiencing:
Mood or personality changes after brain injury, stroke, or seizure
Memory problems, confusion, or language difficulties
Functional neurological symptoms (e.g. non-epileptic seizures, sensory changes)
Co-occurring neurological and psychiatric symptoms
Complex presentations involving ADHD, autism, OCD, or psychosis
Suspected early-onset or atypical dementia
Behavioural or emotional changes following a medical diagnosis
Overlapping neurological and trauma-related presentations
Severe fatigue, sensory overload, or shutdowns not explained by mental health alone
Neuropsychiatric assessments are particularly helpful for individuals whose difficulties don’t fit neatly into psychiatric or neurological categories alone.
Detailed history of mental, cognitive, and physical health
Neurodevelopmental and neurological screening
Review of previous diagnoses, treatments, and medical imaging (e.g. MRI, EEG)

At Bloomfield Health, we take a collaborative and integrative approach to neuropsychiatry. Our clinicians are trained in both psychiatric and neurological aspects of mental health, and we understand how conditions like FND, ADHD, or cognitive changes interact with trauma and identity. We work with empathy, precision, and respect — especially where past services have overlooked or misinterpreted your experience. Our assessments are accessible, thorough, and focused on real-life understanding and support.
No — neuropsychiatric assessments explore the overlap between mental and cognitive health. We may review neurological findings, but we don’t conduct brain scans ourselves.
Absolutely. We specialise in working with neurodivergent individuals, especially where symptoms are complex or misunderstood.
Not necessarily. We welcome referrals from GPs, therapists, or self-referrals if you suspect neurological involvement in your symptoms.
Yes — partners, family members, or carers are welcome if you’d like support or input.
Yes — we regularly assess and support people with FND, including dissociation, movement changes, and non-epileptic seizures.
You’ll receive a summary of findings and recommendations. We can support medication, therapy, referrals, or case coordination as needed.
Please contact us to book an initial consultation. We’ll guide you through the process and match you with the right clinician for your needs.
