Older Adult Services
We support individuals who find connecting within the community challenging. Many older adults are struggling with depression or anxiety as they cope with changes related to aging, or with learning to live with a disability. It’s important that caregivers and friends reach out for help if the individual cannot do so. It’s equally important to know that there are people who can help, especially with any negative feelings or emotions associated with growing older. Depression is often a significant risk factor for many other health problems, including suicide.
But you don’t have to struggle alone. QC Counseling Services trained clinical staff is ready to work with you or someone you know who might be experiencing mental or emotional distress.
What kind of therapies does QC Counseling Services offer?
QC Counseling Services utilizes evidence based interventions to address symptoms. This may include weekly psychotherapy over a short period of time or longer term interventions. The therapist will work with the client to look at factors contributing to their situation, assess how those affect the client’s life, and offer new ways of dealing with the changes that are causing the symptoms. Through a collaborative approach, therapists can offer a new perspective and alternative ways to continue leading a meaningful life, while helping to provide a new outlook on life.
My mom has been very depressed lately, but I don’t know what to do. Does QC Counseling Services make visits within the community?
Yes. Once a referral is made, a skilled QC Counseling Services therapist will contact the client to explain the services we offer and set up the first appointment. We can come to your home, visit your love one at their residential facility, or we can meet at one our offices.
What happens during the first appointment?
During the first appointment, a caring and experienced QC Counseling Services therapist will engage the client in a conversation to determine current needs. This may involve answering questions and filling out some forms to complete the assessment. We will work collaboratively with each client to determine an individual plan.
Who pays for Psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy is offered on a sliding scale depending on income for all clients. QC Counseling Services also accepts medicare/medicaid and other private insurances. Call us at 1 (888) 231-8880 for additional information.
