Mental Health Services for Older Adults and their Caregivers
At Carnelia Mental Health, we understand that the mental health of older adults and their family/caregivers is just as important as their physical health. That's why we offer a range of mental health services specifically designed to meet the needs of older adults and their caregivers. Additionally, we have intentionally chosen to be Medicare Providers in order to meet the financial needs of our clients during this stage of life.
What are the benefits of mental health care in later stages of life?
Mental health issues are common among older adults. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, about one in four adults aged 65 and older experiences a mental health disorder.
Mental health issues can have a significant impact on older adults' quality of life. They can lead to problems with physical health, social isolation, and cognitive decline.
Therapy can help older adults cope with mental health issues and improve their quality of life. It can help them learn to manage their symptoms, develop coping mechanisms, and build resilience.
Therapy can also help older adults address other challenges they may be facing, such as grief and loss, retirement, and chronic illness.
Therapy can provide older adults with a safe and supportive environment to talk about their concerns and receive guidance from a professional.
“Aging is not ‘lost youth’ but a new stage of opportunity and strength.”
