Licensed Therapist Service by Passion & Purpose

Overview

The Licensed Therapist service from Passion & Purpose provides seniors with professional mental health support through licensed therapists. Offering personalized therapy sessions, this service addresses emotional, cognitive, and psychological needs, fostering resilience, well-being, and coping strategies in a compassionate, confidential environment.

How the Service Works for the Elderly

For elderly clients, the Licensed Therapist service is designed to be accessible, empathetic, and tailored to their unique emotional and mental health needs. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how it works:

1. Initial Consultation: A Passion & Purpose coordinator conducts a phone or in-person consultation to assess the client’s mental health needs, emotional challenges (e.g., anxiety, grief, or depression), and preferences for therapy format (e.g., in-person or virtual). This ensures a customized therapy plan.
2. Therapist Matching: We pair the client with a licensed therapist, experienced in geriatric care, who is trained in evidence-based approaches like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or reminiscence therapy. Therapists are selected for compatibility, ensuring a trusting, supportive relationship.
3. Session Setup and Delivery: Sessions occur at the client’s home, assisted living facility, or virtually, typically lasting 45-60 minutes. Therapists provide one-on-one counseling, addressing issues like grief, anxiety, or life transitions through active listening, coping strategies, and tailored interventions. Sessions are conducted in a safe, confidential setting.
4. Ongoing Support: Therapists monitor progress and adjust approaches to meet evolving needs, maintaining a compassionate, client-centered focus. They ensure sessions are engaging and emotionally supportive, prioritizing comfort and trust.
5. Follow-Up and Customization: After each session, the therapist provides feedback to the coordinator (with client consent), and clients or families receive updates. Sessions can be scheduled weekly, bi-weekly, or as needed, with plans adjusted to support ongoing mental health goals.

This approach ensures therapy is professional, accessible, and empowering, helping seniors navigate emotional challenges with confidence.
