My name is Gabriel RAFI and I am a neuropsychologist specialized in the assessment and follow-up of cognitive, behavioral and emotional functions. My main role is to help individuals better understand their cognitive abilities and difficulties, whether they are neurodevelopmental disorders, brain injuries or psychological disorders impacting cognitive functioning.
Graduated in neuropsychology at Paris Descartes University in 2013, I had the opportunity to train in various environments such as hospitals, rehabilitation centers and specialized practices. After more than 10 years of practice, I have developed expertise in the evaluation of different disorders and pecularities, such as:
- ADHD (attention deficit disorder with or without hyperactivity),
- Learning disorders,
- A high potential profile
- Mental and mood disorders and their cognitive impacts,
- Head injuries and cerebrovascular accidents.
As a neuropsychologist, I adopt a global and caring approach. I’m in charge of cognitive performance but also the emotional and behavioral impact of disorders on quality of life. In a therapy, my goal is to provide concrete answers and to support each person towards a better understanding of themselves.

FAQ
What is a Neuropsychologist ?
The main speciality of a neuropsychologist is to understand how the brain functioning affects behavior and cognitive processes. The specialist usually works with individuals who have brain injuries, neurological conditions, or developmental disorders. My personal approach is to focus also on mental health, emotions and behavior, using therapeutic techniques to solve issues like anxiety, depression and stress.
Neuropsychologists emphasize the brain-behavior connection, considering general psychological and emotional well-being.
