Mental Health

We have great empathy for people grappling with the emotional struggles and mental health challenges that often accompany aging. We know that behind every behavior is an unmet need or unexpressed fear and we work with clients to address their needs and to empower them to take as good care of their mental health as they do their physical health.

Our approach to human-care is holistic, which means we consider the whole person - their strengths, needs, priorities and goals - in our care plans.

OT Can Help

Depression

Depression can cause a person to struggle with their daily occupations, such as: hygiene, nutrition and medication management. Habit training helps bring balance to daily life

Anxiety

OTs are experts at behavioral health assessments and understand the physiology of anxiety and its effects on a person's function and independence. We teach coping skills to ease anxiety.

Grief & Loss

Whether it's the loss of a loved one or your old way of life, it's normal to feel sad and grieve what is gone. Your supportive OT can help you maintain meaningful activites while you recover.

Anger

Unchecked anger is often a mask for fear and it threatens your psychosocial functioning. We can help with CBT, coping strategies and teaching sensory approaches for self-regulation.

Let's Work On This Together

If you're worried that mental health struggles are negatively impacting function, safety and independence, submit a referral for an evaluation and to discuss how we can help you or your loved one.
