Dr. Miglena Grigorova, PhD is a licensed neuropsychologist with advanced training in neurodevelopmental, neurological, and neuropsychiatric disorders across the lifespan. She completed her doctoral training in clinical neuropsychology at McGill University, followed by two postdoctoral fellowships, including specialized training at Boston University’s Department of Neurology and a second postdoctoral fellowship at McGill University.
Dr. Grigorova has received extensive clinical training at leading institutions such as the Montreal Neurological Institute, the Memory Clinic, and the Montreal Children’s Hospital, where she developed strong expertise in traumatic brain injury, epilepsy, neurodegenerative diseases, learning disorders, ADHD, autism spectrum conditions, and complex neuropsychiatric presentations.
In parallel with her clinical work, Dr. Grigorova has conducted research focused on women’s brain health, particularly the role of steroid hormones (including estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone) in cognitive functioning, mood regulation, and neurological vulnerability across the lifespan. Her work has explored how hormonal fluctuations and imbalances may influence memory, attention, executive functioning, and emotional well-being.
Her practice integrates evidence-based neuropsychological assessment with a holistic, systems-oriented perspective. She has completed all seven core training modules with the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM), with certification examination scheduled for 2026. This additional training allows her to consider metabolic, nutritional, hormonal, inflammatory, and lifestyle factors that may influence brain health and cognitive functioning.
Dr. Grigorova is frequently involved in complex clinical and medico-legal evaluations and is recognized for her thorough, objective, and integrative approach to assessment. Her work focuses on identifying underlying contributors to cognitive, emotional, and behavioral concerns while providing clear, actionable recommendations to support optimal functioning and long-term brain health.
