Chronic neurological disorders (CNDs) represent a broad spectrum of conditions, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, stroke, and traumatic brain injury that significantly impair cognitive and emotional functioning. These neuropsychological deficits are not merely ancillary to neurological deterioration but are core features that profoundly affect daily living and long-term outcomes. This review synthesizes current evidence on the cognitive domains most commonly affected, such as memory, attention, executive function, and language, and the spectrum of emotional disturbances, including depression, anxiety, apathy, and mood dysregulation. By examining disorder-specific profiles, neurobiological underpinnings, and brain-behavior relationships, the review underscores the interdependence between cognitive and emotional processes. Further, it evaluates standard and emerging neuropsychological assessment tools, including neuroimaging and digital platforms, and outlines intervention strategies ranging from cognitive rehabilitation and psychotherapy to pharmacological and integrative care models. Limitations in cultural adaptation, technological implementation, and longitudinal tracking are discussed alongside future research directions emphasizing AI, genomics, and personalized medicine. The findings advocate for a multidisciplinary and patient-centered approach to neuropsychological care, which is essential for enhancing quality of life in individuals affected by CNDs.
