Psychologists and Therapists for Elderly in Northbridge, WA
Hi, I am a warm, informal and collaborative Clinical Psychologist working with adolescents (12+) and adults. Many people seek therapy feeling anxious, overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhelpful patterns, struggling in relationships, or feeling that something just does not feel quite right. Others want to better understand themselves, make sense of difficult experiences, or understand why life feels harder than it should. I particularly enjoy working with teen girls, neurodivergence (ADHD & Autism), relationship difficulties, trauma, and people who may find it hard to open up or have not found therapy helpful in the past.

Whatever you're facing right now, you don't have to go through it alone. Whether you’re managing anxiety, stress, burnout, or a lifetime of saying yes when you mean no, therapy can help you understand yourself and create lasting change. I enjoy working with adults who often describe themselves as people-pleasers — people who care deeply for others but find it hard to set boundaries or feel “good enough”.
Together, we’ll explore the patterns that keep you over-giving or self-critical, and build new ways of relating to others that can help you to feel more calm, confident, and authentic.

FAQ - About Therapy for Seniors
Is one ever too old for mental health therapy?
Individuals of all ages can benefit from mental health therapy. Indeed, older adults in particular may benefit from the social and psychological support a therapist can provide; the topics that older adults address in therapy may simply differ from those of younger clients. Seniors should seek out a therapist who has experience working with older individuals and who is well-versed in addressing common concerns among elderly individuals, such as depression, anxiety, loneliness, and physical mobility challenges.
How is counselling for elderly different from counselling for other age groups?
In general, counselling offers an opportunity for clients to process difficult life events and develop coping skills they can use outside of the therapy session. Therapists who specialise in working with elderly clients generally have the same framework but may place a special emphasis on specific topics, such as caregiver relationships and reducing loneliness. They may be specially equipped to deal with certain physical conditions or facilitate discussion surrounding end-of-life topics. Counselling for the elderly may also place a greater emphasis on social work-type topics to ensure that geriatric clients have access to necessary resources, such as food, a safe home environment, and healthcare.
How can therapy improve the quality of life of aging individuals?
Therapy for aging adults can greatly improve quality of life by providing an opportunity for them to process difficult emotions related to end-of-life, navigate relational or caregiver challenges, and develop coping skills for common mental health conditions, like anxiety or depression. Subsequent reductions in negative emotions and mental health disorder symptoms can make day-to-day living much more manageable for aging adults and those that care for them. The ongoing relationship with a trusted therapist can also help seniors combat loneliness and provide a sense of structure for their routine.
What are the qualities to look for in therapists who see seniors?
Seniors counsellors, like mental health counselors in general, should be kind, empathetic, skilled at listening, and knowledgeable about their particular area of expertise. Counsellors specialising in working with the senior population should be very familiar with the aging process in general and the common conditions that the elderly can face, such as dementia, depression, loneliness, and/or physical illness. Many senior counsellors are also well-equipped to help caregivers and families navigate the aging process of their loved ones, and they may draw on Interpersonal Therapy to help facilitate improved interactions between seniors and those that care for them.
