Passion. Experience. Culture Awareness.
My name is Dr. Efland H. Amerson. I am a University of Virginia trained Neuropsychologist and graduate from Argosy University of Honolulu. I have been a resident of Hawaii for over 25 years as well as practicing/treating clients in the local community. I have worked in various settings throughout the United States to include overseas. I look forward to providing you, your family, and/or organization (if applicable) with a comprehensive cognitive or psychological evaluation as well as psychotherapy to meet your determined clinical needs.
As a neuropsychologist, I provide neuropsychological assessments, diagnostic services, and treatment to a wide range of clients; from questions about a child's learning difficulties to concerns about a senior's memory that has started to impact their daily living. I also provide a wide range of evaluations for legal related issues from Independent Medical Examinations, fitness for duty as legal issues; such as testamentary capacity. I approach each person with care and consideration for their emotional well-being, cultural background, age, and life experiences that may affect cognitive functioning. My goal is to provide a comprehensive and quality evaluation product whether that be for an individual client or third-party. My endeavor is to give the client the information they need to develop the best treatment plan for neuropsychological health or legal outcome. An appropriate diagnosis is dependent upon a good history, interviewing family members, teachers and review of records as appropriate. I strive to develop a treatment plan tailored to the individual with written reports appropriate for the consumer, be they parents, adult children, physicians, or lawyers.
