Program Overview
cognitiveTree: Cognitive Assessments for Conservatorship
cognitiveTree provides comprehensive Cognitive Assessments designed to support wealth managers and fiduciaries in identifying cognitive decline in clients who may require conservatorship. By leveraging neuroTree’s evidence-based assessment protocols, we help ensure ethical financial decision-making and safeguard assets from mismanagement due to cognitive impairment.
Why It Matters
Many high-net-worth individuals experience cognitive decline as they age, putting them at risk of excessive spending, financial exploitation, and diminished decision-making capacity. Without proper intervention, wealth managers may struggle to balance fiduciary responsibility with client autonomy. cognitiveTree bridges this gap by providing clinical clarity to support informed conservatorship decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions
NeuroTree Treatment Program
All questions and answers below reflect the most common inquiries we receive. Please take a minute to review before chatting with our agent that way you can get your question answered immediately.
Do you accept walk-in's?
No, we are by appointment only.
Is There a cost for me?
If you are a Medicare Part B beneficiary, the Clinical services are cost-free excluding Interventional Therapy services.
How long do I have to commit myself to treatment?
It all depends on your psychological evaluation. In some cases, individuals commit to an 8-week program, others are ongoing and find our treatment providers to be a consistent source of stability and major support in managing and reducing chronic pain and/or trauma experiences.
Where do I meet the clinician?
Most of our providers are accessed through telehealth video conferencing platforms by phone and computers. Depending on your geographical location, you are able to meet in-person.
What forms do I need to fill out in order to access treatment?
There are three main forms we require you to fill out in order to schedule you in to see our provider. The first is our universal intake form. The second is an outpatient contract form. The third is an authorization form you provide to your primary doctor to sign off on to access free treatment.
How do you store my public health Information in your system?
We use HIPAA-compliant servers and our very own electronic health records system (EHR) to store non-public data and encrypt all throughout communications, booking of appointments, and notes to ensure your PHI has maximum protection. Upon request, we delete all records and automatically discard non-active clients every three years.
