Not currently accepting patients

No ratings to display.

Why aren't there any ratings?

There is no publicly available rating for this care provider for one of three reasons:

  1. They do not see patients.
  2. They see patients but have not yet received the minimum number of patient experience reviews. To be eligible for display, we require a minimum of 30 surveys. This ensures that the rating is statistically reliable and an accurate reflection of patient experience.
  3. They see patients but do not see enough patients to collect a statistically-reliable patient experience rating.

About me

Shanna Cooper, PhD, ABPP, is board certified in clinical neuropsychology and a licensed clinical psychologist (OR PY #3482). Her expertise includes clinical and forensic neuropsychological assessments in adults and older adults. 

She evaluates cognitive and emotional functioning in a range of disorders including pre-dementia/dementia, concussion/acquired brain injuries, neurodevelopmental disorders, medical disorders (e.g., brain tumor, epilepsy, HIV), and psychiatric disorders (e.g., bipolar disorder, depression). She strives to provide culturally competent and science-informed care, providing quality information to the patient and their loved ones as the focal point of her work.

Dr. Cooper's research has focused on the interplay of cognition and emotion particularly at early stages of developing a range of disorders, such as psychosis and neurodegenerative conditions. She currently serves as the study neuropsychologist on an OHSU/Department of Neurology study focused on epilepsy. She is particularly committed to engaging in research that centers around patient access, needs, and outcomes. She also has a passion for training/mentorship and to contributing to policy development and advocacy that increases access to neuropsychology and better assists patient care in clinic.

Dr. Cooper earned her doctorate in clinical psychology and neuroscience from Temple University and completed her neuropsychology internship and two-year neuropsychology fellowship (both APA accredited) at VA San Diego / UC San Diego; she completed an additional three-year neuropsychological apprenticeship in forensic neuropsychology with Dean C. Delis, Ph.D., ABPP-CN. Prior to joining OHSU, she served as a neuropsychologist at VA San Diego and assistant clinical professor at UC San Diego, and ran a small private practice in the San Diego area.

Dr. Cooper is a member of many professional organizations and regularly serves in leadership positions. These organizations include the American Academy of Clinical Neuropsychology (AACN), the American Psychological Association (APA), the International Neuropsychological Society (INS), and the National Academy of Neuropsychology (NAN). She serves within APA/Division 40 (Society for Clinical Neuropsychology) via the Early Career Neuropsychologist Committee as Membership Officer and Oregon State Representative and as the Marketing Team Co-Chair.
