Elder Caregivers

Are you feeling overwhelmed managing the care needs of a loved one? Do you wonder if you’re making the right choices for both of you? Caregiving is a profound act of love—and it’s also a role that can take a heavy emotional, mental, and physical toll. Therapy can provide a steady place to process what you’re carrying and support you through the complexities of this journey.

When Caregiving Takes a Personal Toll

Do you notice yourself feeling sad, frustrated, guilty, or exhausted? Do you ever question, Am I doing this right? These are common and valid emotions that many caregivers face. The demands of caregiving can lead to decision fatigue, isolation, or even burnout.

Therapy offers a compassionate space to talk about what’s hard without judgment and to begin feeling less alone.
