Dr Mi-Yeoung Jo

Neuropsychologist

“Neuropsychological evaluations: Clinical, Forensic, Pediatric, Adult, Bilingual (Korean & English)”

About Me

I offer detailed neuropsychological evaluations to understand how brain function impacts daily life. My goal is to provide clear insights, whether for clinical, forensic, paediatric, or adult needs. I work with both Korean and English speakers, ensuring everyone feels fully understood. My approach helps individuals and families gain a comprehensive picture, guiding them towards effective support and strategies.

Approach

Assessments begin with a clear roadmap so you and your family understand how brain function links to everyday challenges. In my Sherman Oaks office I balance structured testing with conversational moments in English or Korean, pacing sessions to each person’s stamina and developmental stage. Between visits I turn results into plain‑language feedback, practical strategies, and concise reports that support decision-making across home, school, and legal settings. Many people find this steady, collaborative pace helps them feel informed and ready to take the next steps.
