Neuropsychology is the study of behaviors, illnesses, or injuries which can affect the relationship between your brain health and your ability to think, learn, remember, and control your behaviors.  Extensive training is obtained by a neuropsychologist to identify and diagnose  conditions which affect brain health and function.

Clinical psychology involves assessing and treating  emotional distress and disorder.  By administering standardized methods of assessment and comparing responses to identified clinical and normative groups the clinical psychologist can offer objective, accurate identification of disorders and provide appropriate treatment.

Forensic psychology is a specialty involving the evaluation of persons in the criminal justice system or persons involved in private litigation.  Criminal realm psychological evaluations include competency to stand trial (competency to proceed) and criminal responsibility evaluations (NGRI).  Dr. Hughes provides forensic psychological and neuropsychological evaluations.
