Dementia Caregiver Support
Offered Online in Wisconsin, Utah, Colorado, and PSYPACT States
Caring for a loved one can be both rewarding and overwhelming—especially when navigating healthcare systems that may not affirm your identity. I provide online psychotherapy for LGBTQ+ caregivers like you, helping you feel supported, understood, and equipped to care for yourself while caring for others.

Caring for another person and their daily needs can be deeply meaningful—but it can also be overwhelming, exhausting, and isolating.
For LGBTQ+ adults, caregiving often comes with unique challenges: navigating family dynamics, managing your own health, and balancing responsibilities while feeling unseen or unsupported.
There can be an additional worry that health systems and providers don't "get" the unique needs of LGBTQ+ people, especially as we age and become more dependent on others or in turn help friends and family as they age.
Dementia, chronic medical conditions, amputated limbs, and terminal illness often lead to people needing help with daily tasks and emotional support. You are showing up for your person, but over time this can take a toll. It is normal for the person providing support to need support as well.
How Online Caregiver Support Can Help:
Using time-tested and evidence-based approaches, we can work together to:
-
Identify practical strategies to manage caregiving responsibilities without losing yourself.
-
Build skills to respond to challenging dementia-related behaviors
-
Learn to hold stress, guilt, or resentment with compassion.
-
Strengthen your ability to make values-based decisions in challenging situations.
-
Create space to process complex emotions, from grief to frustration, while honoring your experience.
