Teletherapy services are offered via telephone or computer, without the need to meet in person.
The program staff includes a board-certified psychiatrist, licensed therapists, a registered nurse, and other professionals dedicated to the emotional well-being of the seniors in our community.
“Our program opened in January of this year and our team has had the privilege of seeing the enormous impact in the every day lives of our patients. Senior Life Solutions provides the support, education and tools to our patients so they are more equipped to navigate the challenges they are experiencing. There is such a stigma surrounding mental health and ultimately what we provide is community, care and compassion for our seniors. If you or someone you know is experiencing any of these challenges we encourage you to contact the program and learn more.” Liz W, Program Director.
Anyone can refer a patient to the program, including a physician, family member, the patient, or another healthcare professional.
