Melissa Brie, PsyD

Melissa Brie is a neuropsychologist, a psychologist who specializes in the relationship between the brain and behavior. She helps patients develop strategies for adapting to ongoing cognitive issues (those involving thoughts, perceptions and reasoning abilities), provides assessments to help patients better understand their cognitive changes, and develops individualized treatment plans to improve quality of life. She also provides psychotherapy to help patients cope with a brain tumor diagnosis and adjustment to life after treatment.
