Dr. Mary Acunzo has been in private practice on Cape Cod since 1996, specializing in neuropsychological assessment of children, adolescents and young adults.
NOW ACCEPTING a wider range of insurance plans.
Dr. Acunzo conducts testing with individuals who present with an array of developmental and neurological issues, such as:
- Attention regulation problems (such as ADHD, executive dysfunction)
- Developmental learning disabilities (such as language-based, nonverbal learning disorder)
- Pervasive developmental disabilities (such as PDD, Aspergers)
- Autism
- Acquired injuries/illness (such as head injuries),
- Seizure disorders
- Tic disorders (such as Tourettes)
- Other neurological conditions
In addition to testing in the office, she will often spend time reviewing records; talking to teachers, physicians, and other professionals; and, sometimes observing children in their classroom. Assessment culminates in a comprehensive report that includes diagnosis (if appropriate), strengths/compromises, and detailed recommendations (with ideas about strategies and interventions). This information is generally given in a feedback session with parents and often the patient. Follow up meetings with schools or other professionals are also possible. Dr. Acunzo can provide ongoing consultation and treatment (dependent upon availability).
