Gerontology & Aging
Navigation Services
 

​Gerontology-based services take away the stress, confusion and frustration experienced by anyone trying to navigate, manage and plan for age-related challenges but are unsure of what to do and where to begin.

​Services are available in a variety of convenient and flexible formats depending on the needs of the clients. No referral or long-term commitment is required. If family is accessing services, the older adult does not have to be present during a session.

Full Intake & Assessment

This session gives clients dedicated time with a Gerontologist to make a plan with actionable goals to prepare for their aging journey. ​This session is ideal for those not quite sure of what they should be working to on but want to start the conversation. This session will give clients a full picture and comprehensive view of where they are at, where they want to be, and how to get there. This session includes an intake form completion, one hour with a Gerontologist and a detailed written report with actionable goals and a plan for next steps. ​After this session, clients are welcome to book other services right away or come back anytime in the future for an individual follow-up session.
