Senior and Older Adult Counselling

Psychological Therapy in Menai and the Sutherland Shire

Later life can be a time of reflection, growth and renewed meaning. It can also bring significant change, including retirement, shifts in family roles, health adjustments or the loss of loved ones.

At Evolving Minds Counselling and Psychology in Menai, our psychologists and counsellors provide trauma informed, evidence-based counselling for seniors and older adults across the Sutherland Shire.

​

People seek therapy in later life for many reasons. You may be adjusting to retirement, coping with grief or loneliness, managing changes in health, or navigating evolving family relationships. Others seek counselling to reflect on identity, purpose or life transitions. Therapy offers a respectful and confidential space to explore what matters most to you.

Counselling May Assist With

​

• anxiety or low mood

• grief and bereavement

• adjustment to retirement

• identity and life transitions

• trauma or unresolved past experiences

• relationship changes

• health-related stress

• maintaining social and emotional connection

Women’s mental health in later life may include navigating perimenopause, menopause, hormonal changes and shifts in identity or caregiving roles. These transitions can affect mood, sleep, emotional regulation and relationships. Therapy provides a structured space to explore these changes and their impact over time.

​

Where appropriate, therapy may be integrated with Trauma Therapy and PTSD Counselling, Adult Counselling, or Family Counselling, depending on your needs.

Sessions are available in person at our Menai practice or online for those who prefer to connect from home.  You can also learn more on our Conditions We Work With page.
