About Us
In 2006, Pramataris & Associates was established as a psychology practice in New York City. Our specialty is the neuropsychological assessment of children, adolescents, and young adults with learning, language, and attention difficulties. All of our clinicians have completed a two-year fellowship in neuropsychological assessment and have received specialized training in educational advocacy. To provide the highest level of service, we administer our assessments personally and without the use of technicians, assistants, or students.
