Dementia Therapists in Las Vegas, NV
I work with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, dementia, and mind-body disconnection.
As we go through the stressors of daily life, it is easy to become disconnected from ourselves. It can be difficult to find the words to talk about distressing events or emotions. I recognize that seeking therapy takes courage and is an act of self-love. You may be seeking a way to heal and reconnect, whether that’s through talking, exploring emotions, or something different altogether. My ideal client is someone who is ready to explore a holistic approach to therapy, with an emphasis on self-awareness, emotional release, and healing.

FAQ - Alzheimer's and Dementia Therapists
What emotional and psychological challenges do dementia and Alzheimer's patients commonly face?
People living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia may experience a range of emotional and psychological challenges, including depression, anxiety, irritability, agitation, sleep problems, mood changes, and feeling overwhelmed or overstimulated. Memory loss can also lead to frustration, embarrassment, or grief, particularly when someone becomes less able to participate in activities that were once important to them. The challenges an individual faces may also change as dementia progresses. A person who initially feels anxious about memory problems, for example, may later experience greater confusion or difficulty communicating their needs. Because symptoms can evolve over time, individuals and their families may need different forms of emotional support at different stages of the condition.
How can therapy help someone living with dementia or Alzheimer's disease?
Therapy can provide emotional support for people living with dementia, particularly in the earlier stages of the condition. A therapist may help someone cope with the emotional impact of a diagnosis, adjust to changes in independence or daily functioning, and address various psychological challenges. Therapists may also work with family members or caregivers, who can experience significant stress, grief, and changing responsibilities as the condition progresses. Some types of mental health professionals can also conduct evaluations regarding changes in memory or thinking. For example, psychologists and neuropsychologists may conduct cognitive assessments that can help identify early symptoms of dementia and contribute to a dementia diagnosis. However, because memory problems can have many possible causes, a formal diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or another type of dementia typically involves a broader medical evaluation and often includes input from a primary care provider, neurologist, or psychiatrist.
When should someone with dementia or Alzheimer's see a therapist?
It’s best to seek treatment at the first signs of dementia or Alzheimer's. Early warning signs usually include memory problems, such as forgetting appointments or directions, as well as trouble concentrating, paying attention, retrieving words, and carrying out daily household tasks. If someone is experiencing these problems, however, the first step is generally a medical evaluation rather than therapy alone, as medical professionals are able to conduct comprehensive evaluations and determine whether symptoms could be related to another potentially treatable condition. If dementia is diagnosed, an early diagnosis can provide more time to discuss treatment options, connect with support services, and plan for future care. It can also allow the individual to participate more fully in decisions about caregiving needs, living arrangements, legal planning, and finances.
What types of therapy are most effective for people with dementia or Alzheimer's?
Treatment for Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia depends on the severity of the condition. For people with mild to moderate dementia, cognitive stimulation therapy (CST) is one of the most commonly used treatments. During group or individual CST, people with dementia will discuss past events or day-to-day interests to encourage memory retrieval, thinking, and communication. Expressive therapies, such as music therapy and art therapy, are also increasingly being used to help improve mood and engagement in people with dementia across different levels of symptom severity. Many geriatric therapists who specialize in working with older adults are familiar with these techniques, but it is often a good idea to ask about the techniques a therapist uses when choosing a clinician. Some individuals may also benefit from medications in addition to therapy. Cholinesterase inhibitors are commonly prescribed for Alzheimer’s disease, which work by increasing levels of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter involved in memory and other cognitive functions.
How can I find a therapist who specializes in dementia or Alzheimer's disease?
The Psychology Today Directory can help you find therapists who have experience working with dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, older adults, caregivers, or related concerns. You can narrow your search based on factors such as specialty, location, cost, insurance, and other preferences. When contacting a therapist, consider asking how frequently they work with people who have dementia and whether they also provide support to family members or caregivers. If you are seeking an evaluation for possible dementia rather than emotional support after a diagnosis, you may need a medical or neuropsychological assessment prior to, or alongside, psychotherapy. A primary care provider, neurologist, psychiatrist, or neuropsychologist may be involved in completing this type of evaluation.
