Re-Specialization in Neuropsychology

What is Re-Specialization?

Re-specialization is a formal training pathway for licensed psychologists seeking to transition into clinical neuropsychology. This process involves completing specialized coursework, gaining supervised clinical experience, and meeting professional requirements.

How to Specialize in Neuropsychology Post-licensing

The post-license specialization or re-specialization pathway includes three essential steps:

  • Foundational Learning: Complete specialized coursework in neuropsychological theory and assessment
  • Supervised Clinical Experience: Gain hands-on practice through mentored neuropsychological evaluations
  • Professional Credentialing: Pursue board certification and establish your neuropsychology practice

Who Can Re-Specialize?

Specialization is available to licensed psychologists who hold a doctoral degree in psychology and are currently licensed to practice independently (e.g., PhD, PsyD, EdD). Training requirements vary based on your unique background and experience. Contact us to discuss your specific pathway and create a personalized training plan.

Why Specialize in Neuropsychology?

Specialization opens new professional opportunities and deepens your clinical expertise:

  • Expand your practice to include neuropsychological assessment and consultation
  • Work with diverse populations including brain injury, dementia, and neurodevelopmental disorders
  • Collaborate with medical professionals in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and clinics
  • Build expertise in a growing and high-demand specialty area

What Are the Requirements?

Requirements vary based on your individual background, training history, and state licensing regulations. We work with you to identify your specific needs and develop a customized training plan that meets ABPP board certification standards. Contact us for a consultation to discuss your personalized pathway. Please also review FAQ on American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP) & American Board of Clinical Neuropsycholog (ABCN) sites.
