Subject areas Our subject areas
Cognitive disorders include, for example, memory difficulties, concentration problems, difficulties with new learning, dyslexia, dyscalculia, executive difficulties (ie difficulties with cognitive self-regulation and ability to cognitively apply themselves, as well as ability to relate information from surroundings). Cognitive disorders are mapped through neuropsychological testing. Such testing can reveal both strengths and weaknesses of a person's cognitive functioning. Such a mapping is often important, both when considering treatment strategies for various mental disorders, when considering an ability to work or possibly assessing the occurrence of occupational disability.
Psychosomatic disorders mostly include conditions with various bodily ailments and pains, but without reliable biological findings that can explain the whole disease picture. Examples can be: * Musculoskeletal disorders * Chest pain * Stomach / intestinal disorders * Headache * Abdominal pain The treatment prognosis for such conditions is significantly improved by a psychosomatic examination. We obtain a clarification in questions about diagnosis and any measures in relation to both treatment and the social security system.
Neuropsychology deals with connections between the brain and behavior. Behavior is used here as a term that covers human behavior both on the inner and outer plane, that is, both how we think and how we behave. Neuropsychology includes knowledge about the effect of brain injuries and diseases on behavior, and also knowledge about which parts of our brain are particularly active during completely normal behavior. This knowledge forms the basis for studies of people who seek help for difficulties they struggle with, where it is assumed that the cause can not only be explained on the basis of environmental or emotional conditions. We offer neuropsychological examination / diagnostics as well as advice in relation to neuropsychological issues.
