Our neuropsychological evaluation consists of tests administered over four hours that are then used to measure an individual’s intellectual, academic, and personality strengths and weaknesses. In addition, this testing service assesses the effects of underlying brain abnormalities that might affect an individual’s everyday life, such as attentional issues, executive function, dyslexia, low self-esteem, or lack of motivation. Each test is scored, analyzed, and compiled into a final report to help determine a differential diagnosis and further treatment plans. Additionally, an interview with parents is consulted with younger patients to evaluate steps moving forward.
Telemedicine uses video and audio technologies to provide virtual appointments between healthcare providers and their clients, allowing patients to meet with our psychiatrist or psychotherapist from their homes or office.

Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) or Medication Assisted Recovery (MAR) is a physician-supervised use of medication to treat opioid use, dependency & abuse.

Therefore, our method is a more effective & responsible approach to using MAT to treat opioid and heroin dependency.
A persistence of emotional distress and difficulties in everyday life can be uncomfortable to tackle. However, our goal is to create and provide an atmosphere of warmth, compassion, and consideration.

Copley Healthcare & Partners believes in something other than a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, our highly skilled professionals take a holistic & comprehensive approach by looking at the full spectrum of a person rather than just treating symptoms.
Each patient under our care will begin their treatment with a psychiatric assessment that helps develop a comprehensive plan tailored to their needs. This evaluation helps determine whether medication, therapy or a combination of both would be most effective for the patient’s treatment plan.
