Neuropsychological, developmental, and psychoeducational evaluations
Who We Are
Who We Are
Blue Cat Neuropsychology provides neuropsychological, developmental, and psychoeducational evaluations across the lifespan. We focus on diagnostic clarification and functional recommendations when presentations are complex—particularly when neurodevelopmental, neurological, psychiatric, and medical factors overlap. Blue Cat Neuropsychology focuses on the needs of healthcare providers through referral-only services. We do not perform consumer, legal, or forensic evaluations. We offer broad insurance participation (Aetna, BCBS/Florida Blue, Optum/UHC/Oscar/HealthFirst, Cigna, Medicare) to ensure patient access.
Dr. Scott Harcourt is a clinical neuropsychologist with advanced neurology-embedded training through the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Nicklaus Children’s Hospital, University of Missouri Health Sciences, and Thompson Center for Autism & Neurodevelopment. He has life-span specializations in neurodevelopmental disorders, epilepsy, movement disorders, multiple sclerosis, and memory disorders. His evaluation approach reflects a strong research orientation, enabling nuanced differential diagnosis when neurodevelopmental, neurological, and psychiatric factors overlap.
