Older Adult Talking Therapy (Skilled Listening)
We understand as we age, we may encounter various challenges and changes that can significantly impact our mental health. This includes coping with loss, physical ailments, social isolation, and cognitive decline, among other factors. Talking therapies have been shown to be very successful and beneficial for older people, age doesn’t matter when it comes to looking after your mental wellness. Feeling sad, low moods or lacking motivation are not part of aging.
We can help if you're struggling with things like feelings of depression, feeling low and hopeless, obsessive thoughts or behaviours, excessive worry, Isolation, social anxiety or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
You do not need to have a diagnosed mental health problem, getting support as soon you are having difficulties will help to reduce the impact.

Dementia Coaching for Caregivers
Relocation
Relocating from the family home can be a shock to the system, leaving a place where the walls hold many memories can be quite difficult.
Where suitable, it’s important that the person moving is as involved as much possible with the moving process, so they still feel in control of the decision they have made.
A study found that the quality of care can be improved if the stress of moving is eased through prior preparation.
Health & Healing Services are here to make that transition as comfortable as possible.
