My therapeutic approach for Alzheimer's focuses on enhancing quality of life, utilizing interventions tailored to maintain mental function and support daily living activities. This strategy seeks to uphold dignity and foster a positive environment for individuals navigating the complexities of Alzheimer's disease.
Alzheimers can be very confusing and scary for many individuals and their loved ones. I have had first hand experience in working in assisted living communities where I provided cognitive therapeutic techniques and interventions to those struggling with Alzheimers. I utilize various cognitive interventions to help activate and stimulate the brain of those struggling with Alzheimers and to slow the effects or progression of Alzheimers on the brain.
I also have experience in working closely with family members and loved ones of those struggling with Alzheimers. I understand the obstacles, distress and pain this can sometimes have on those closest to the individual with Alzheimers. Let me help you in addressing and processing your feelings while also learning healthy ways to cope with the changes your loved one is going through. Give me a call today for more information on how I can help.
It is a scary experience to watch those we love and care for decline and become shadows of themselves. When we lose connection to our past, we can feel fearful, angry, and sad about what is being taken away. This does not have to be the last word however. We can still make meaning in our lives that continues to provide us with a sense of purpose and value.
