Dr Hetta Gouse
Neuropsychologist
“Neuropsychological assessments with adults with traumatic brain injury, substance abuse, cognitive impairment/dementia and other neurological disorders.”
About Me
As a neuropsychologist, I help adults understand changes in their thinking and memory. This is especially vital when navigating conditions like brain injury, substance abuse, or dementia. My neuropsychological assessments offer precise insights into your cognitive strengths and challenges. We then use this understanding to guide practical strategies for daily life. Clients gain clarity and feel supported in making sense of their unique cognitive landscape.
Approach
I start by translating findings into clear, practical steps so each session feels focused and manageable rather than technical. In my Whangarei clinic I work in English and Afrikaans, keeping sessions a mix of conversational review and structured tasks, paced to how you’re coping that day. Between meetings I provide concise feedback and simple strategies to try at home, then we revisit what helps. This approach suits adults and older people who want straightforward, evidence-grounded support for everyday thinking and memory challenges.
