Intake Fact Sheet
Welcome to NESCA! NESCA is a private pediatric neuropsychology practice in Newton, Massachusetts. We were established in 2007 by Ann Helmus, Ph.D., founder and for ten years co-director of the Children’s Evaluation Center, which has closed. Dr. Helmus is joined at NESCA by a seasoned group of senior staff neuropsychologists from Children’s Evaluation Center, most of whom she trained, and by other skilled practitioners. Together they serve children and their families not only from the Boston metropolitan area and the rest of Massachusetts, but also from the states of Maine, Rhode Island and New Hampshire, and abroad. NESCA offers a full range of neuropsychological testing, diagnostic and treatment services, specializing in the evaluation and remediation of nonverbal and other learning disabilities, assessment of executive functioning and ADHD, special education issues, school placements and tutoring, as well as psycho-diagnostic projective testing, counseling, social skills development and mind-body integration. NESCA tests, evaluates and treats children - aged pre-school through adolescence – who are confronted by developmental, learning or emotional challenges. Although many of the children we evaluate would traditionally have been seen in a hospital setting, parents choose us because they appreciate our friendliness and accessibility, the much higher degree of personal care we provide, and our eagerness and ability to follow-through, long-term. Our center also offers families expertise with educational planning and management of children with special needs. We assist parents and teachers in drawing out the best in each child. We strive to build long-lasting relationships with families so that we can provide guidance throughout a child’s development. NESCA and Chatterboxes Join Forces!
