Neuropsychological Assessment
Neuropsychological Assessment
The Triumph Center provides neuropsychological evaluations of children, adolescents, and young adults. Our evaluations assess each person’s unique cognitive, behavioral, and social-emotional functioning to assist with diagnostic clarification, as well as educational and treatment planning. We work collaboratively with parents, schools, and agencies to address concerns by providing practical and evidence-based recommendations.
You can learn more about our evaluation services, including our Neuropsychological Assessments, on our Evaluations Services page.

Insurance for Our Counseling Services
Insurance for Our Counseling Services
Our service rates are “fee-for-service” as we do not accept insurance. To ensure that all families can afford services at Triumph Center we offer a sliding scale which is granted on a financial need basis and we provide “insurance-friendly” statements that include many of the service codes and information your insurance company may require for you to submit for out-of-network reimbursement. A number of insurance companies will pay at least a portion of the costs associated with treatment. If you wish to apply for the sliding scale, we request that families provide documentation of your total family income, the number of legal dependents that you are financially responsible for and claim on your taxes, and current out-of-pocket monthly mental health expenses. After review of these documents, if a family qualifies, we will provide a revised fee for you to review before deciding whether to proceed with services. It will be helpful to talk to you insurance provider to determine what your family may be eligible for, and what the reimbursement process entails, as we are unable to guarantee that our services or staff will be reimbursed. As such, families should plan/budget assuming services will not be reimbursed and seek sliding scale as needed.
Triumph Center is dedicated to eliminating inequality in the mental health system, including financial barriers to high-quality, evidence-based treatments. We offer sliding scale fee reductions as one part of this mission. Reduced rates are reserved for low-income families without access to other financial resources and/or support.
Upon receipt of our sliding scale request form and accompanying documents, Triumph Center’s underwriting team will review for a possible reduced rate. We request financial information and documents of the caregivers/parents of the patient looking for a reduced rate. This is regardless of the patient’s age and/or financial independence.
