Biography:
Dr. Wilma Rosen is
a developmental neuropsychologist who specializes in neuropsychological
assessment of children ages 9 years and above focusing on cognitive functioning
during transitional periods in pre-adolescence, adolescence, and early
adulthood. A developmental approach to disorders, such as learning disabilities
and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, involves not only identification
and delineation of the disorder, but its manifestations specific to different
developmental periods or stages and its impact on academic, psychosocial and
psychological functioning. Dr. Rosen also provides evaluations for children and
adolescents entering new academic environments and in need of academic
accommodations.
Dr. Rosen received
a B.A. in mathematics from Cedar Crest College, and M.A. and Ph.D. in
psychology from Clark University. She completed a post-doctoral fellowship at
the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, NY.
Dr. Rosen has
taught undergraduate psychology courses at Wellesley College, Boston University
and Suffolk University, and graduate courses in child neuropsychology and
neuropsychological assessment at the City University of New York. She has
worked as an experimental psychologist at the Bronx Veterans Administration
Medical Center and clinical neuropsychologist at the Mount Sinai Medical Center
in New York City. From 1984 to 1996 she was the Director of Neuropsychology in
the Department of Psychiatry at ColumbiaPresbyterian
Medical Center, New York City, where she supervised and trained pre-doctoral
interns and post-doctoral fellows in clinical neuropsychology. Dr. Rosen has
been in full-time private practice since 1996. She has been licensed in
psychology by the State of New York since 1981 and is active in professional
neuropsychology organizations.
