Cognitive Evaluation in Salt Lake City

A cognitive evaluation provides an objective measure of intellectual functioning, including verbal reasoning, visual-spatial abilities, working memory, and processing speed. At CPS, our psychologists use gold-standard instruments like the WAIS-V (adults) and WISC-V (children).

Cognitive evaluations serve many purposes — identifying intellectual disabilities, establishing giftedness, evaluating learning disabilities, supporting school placement decisions, and providing documentation for legal or disability proceedings.

Our psychologists interpret test results in the context of your full history, presenting concerns, and other assessment data. You receive a comprehensive report with clear explanations and actionable recommendations.

Our main Salt Lake City office at 1208 East 3300 South provides comprehensive behavioral health services to the greater Salt Lake metro area. To schedule a cognitive evaluation appointment, call us at (801) 483-1600 or visit our Salt Lake City office at 1208 East 3300 South, Salt Lake City, UT 84106.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a cognitive evaluation?
A cognitive evaluation (sometimes called IQ testing or intellectual assessment) measures how you think, learn, and process information. It produces standardized scores for verbal reasoning, visual-spatial skills, memory, and processing speed.
Why would I need a cognitive evaluation?
Common reasons include suspected learning disabilities, academic struggles, gifted identification, disability applications, legal proceedings, or as part of a neuropsychological evaluation.
How long does cognitive testing take?
A standard cognitive evaluation takes 2–3 hours. If combined with achievement testing or other assessments, it may take longer.
What's the difference between a cognitive evaluation and neuropsychological testing?
A cognitive evaluation focuses on intellectual ability (IQ). Neuropsychological testing is broader — it also measures attention, executive function, language, memory, and other brain-behavior relationships.

Dementia & Memory Concerns

Memory changes are scary — but 'is this normal aging, MCI, or dementia?' is a question we can actually answer. A neuropsychological evaluation gives the whole family something concrete to plan around.

Learning Disability

A child (or adult) who is bright but struggling disproportionately with reading, writing, or math needs a real evaluation — not another year of 'let's wait and see.'
