Dr. Cohen is a native North Carolinian, born and raised in the Tar Heel State. He earned a Bachelor’s degree from the University of North Carolina- Chapel Hill, where he was a member of the Varsity Cheerleading team. After graduation, Dr. Cohen received a Master’s degree in Experimental Psychology from Georgia Southern University. Realizing he wanted to pursue a clinical career, Dr. Cohen earned another Master’s degree and a Doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology from Loyola University Maryland. It was during graduate school that Dr. Cohen began to focus on Neuropsychology. With an interest in sports medicine as well as brain functioning, concussion management was a natural fit, perfectly melding two of Dr. Cohen’s passions- sports and the brain.
Dr. Cohen completed an APA-accredited internship at Tulane University School of Medicine. He then completed a 2-year post-doctoral fellowship in neuropsychology at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) Sports Medicine Concussion Program. Training directly with field leaders and the creators of ImPACT, Dr. Cohen was part of the concussion management team for the Pitt Panthers, Pittsburgh Penguins, and Pittsburgh Steelers.
Dr. Cohen believes that concussion is a treatable injury, and has a passion for helping patients of all ages recover from concussions. Throughout his career, he has managed over 4,000 patients with concussions, ranging from Workers’ Comp injuries to MVC, and from youth athletes to NFL All-Stars and Olympians. Dr. Cohen enjoys learning about each patient as a whole person, and helping everyone get back to the activities they enjoy as quickly- and as safely- as possible.
Outside of clinical practice, Dr. Cohen is very involved in furthering the practice of concussion management. He has been an invited speaker to a variety of audiences on the topic of concussion, and has published research in multiple peer-reviewed journals and textbooks. Dr. Cohen is very involved in Sports Neuropsychology Society (SNS) having held multiple leadership positions for the international organization.
After living and training all over the country, Dr. Cohen is thrilled to be settled back in North Carolina with his family, and enjoys watching sports, running marathons, and being outdoors.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Cohen for a few months now. He has been extremely supportive of the work I’ve done to help remedy a frustrating injury. All of his recommended therapies are working to improve my situation. He explains things to me in a way I’m able to understand. Thanks for the great care.
He was very thorough and patient with explaining about concussions and the protocol it takes to allow for healing.
Very knowledgeable, comforting and reassuring. Answered all questions, even questions I didn’t know I needed answered. Made an already scary situation so much more bearable. Highly recommend
Dr. Cohen does not take the time to listen. If a response to a question is more than a simple yes or no, he will cut the patient off mid sentence. He only wants to gather info for documentation purposes and comes across as cold, uncaring and judgmental. Apologies for having a brain injury and my answers requiring a little more of your time.
Dr. Cohen is excellent. I truly appreciate his knowledge and encouragement.
Super helpful! He explained things clearly and made sure i understood everything completely! :)
