Austin has built one of the stronger neuropsychology ecosystems in Texas, anchored by practices like the NEAT Center, the Neuropsychological Assessment Clinic, Austin Neuropsychology, and the Neurobehavioral Institute of Austin. The Austin Neuropsychological Society connects local providers for case consultation and continuing education. UT Austin's psychology and neuroscience departments feed the pipeline with research and trainees, and Dell Medical School's growing neurology program has expanded referral networks for complex evaluations. The demand is real — Austin's tech-heavy population drives a steady stream of ADHD evaluations, while the city's aging population and veteran community add TBI and cognitive decline assessments to the caseload.
Beast Putty in Neuropsych Evaluation Settings
Neuropsychological assessments are long, cognitively demanding, and anxiety-provoking — exactly when self-regulation tools matter most. Beast Putty offers clients a physical outlet during breaks or non-timed tasks without introducing confounds. It's silent, non-distracting, and doesn't require executive resources to operate — qualities that matter in standardized testing environments where clicking, spinning, or bouncing fidgets would compromise results. For Austin practices running 4-6 hour evaluation batteries, having a regulation aid that clients can use between subtests reduces test anxiety and supports more valid performance across the session.
Supporting Austin's Diverse Caseload
Austin neuropsychologists see a distinctive mix of referrals. The tech industry drives high volumes of adult ADHD and executive function evaluations — clients who benefit from a tactile grounding tool during lengthy attention and memory testing. UT students and Austin Community College learners seek evaluations for learning disabilities, and the putty helps manage the performance anxiety that can skew results. Austin's military-connected population, with proximity to Fort Cavazos, brings TBI evaluations where clients with cognitive fatigue need consistent, predictable sensory input. And the city's growing older adult population means more dementia screening evaluations where a calming tactile aid reduces agitation during unfamiliar testing procedures.

Keep Beast Putty in your testing room and therapy office.

Shipping to Austin-area practices runs 3-5 business days via standard ground.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Does putty actually help with ADHD?
- Research from the University of Central Florida shows that rhythmic fidgeting improves working memory in ADHD adults by 10–15%. Putty provides resistance-based sensory input that gives your hands something meaningful to do — unlike light plastic fidgets that lose their appeal in a week. Our customers use Beast Putty during meetings, on calls, and while working to stay focused without distracting anyone around them. It won't replace your meds, but it might replace your destroyed pen caps.
- Will it dry out?
- No. Beast Putty is made from premium silicone — not the rubber-based stuff that hardens into a rock after a week in your desk drawer. Keep it in the tin when you're not using it and it stays exactly the same. Months later, same stretch, same resistance, same color shift.
- Can Beast Putty be used during neuropsychological testing without affecting results?
- Beast Putty can be offered to clients during breaks or non-timed portions of an evaluation. It's silent, non-distracting, and doesn't require executive resources to operate, making it compatible with standardized testing environments in ways that noisy or visually stimulating fidgets are not.
- Is Beast Putty appropriate for clients with sensory sensitivities?
- Yes. The tactile input from Beast Putty is consistent and predictable — it doesn't surprise or overwhelm. Many clients with sensory sensitivities, including those with autism or ADHD, respond well to the deep proprioceptive input it provides.
- Is Beast Putty safe for adults and children with cognitive or neurological differences?
- Yes. Beast Putty is non-toxic, latex-free, and phthalate-free. It's appropriate for use in clinical settings with diverse client populations, including those undergoing neuropsychological evaluation.
- How quickly does Beast Putty ship to Austin, TX?
- Beast Putty ships to Austin-area clinics and schools via standard ground delivery, typically arriving in 3-5 business days.
