Family Caregiver Support Groups

Caring for a family member with memory loss can be challenging. Our online support groups offer emotional support, helpful information, and the companionship of others who understand. Groups are facilitated by a professionally trained moderator and meet over Zoom. They are free and open to anyone caring for a family member with dementia or memory loss.

Our Monday evening group meets from 8:15 – 9:45pm and our Thursday group meets from 11:00am – 1:00pm. To register, call us at 415-449-3700 or email info@seniorsathome.org.

Care Consultations

Looking for guidance when it comes to planning your loved one’s long-term care? Whether you have questions about a particular need such as dementia, serious illness or difficulty managing finances, or just need a little extra support, we’re here for you. We can provide expert consultations at your loved one’s home, in residential facilities, or in our offices. Through our links with community agencies around the country, we are also able to assist you with long-distance planning.

Counseling and Grief Support

Our compassionate therapists offer individual or family counseling to help you manage the challenge of caring for an aging parent, friend, spouse, or partner. For anyone who has experienced the loss of a loved one, we provide one-on-one counseling as well as grief support groups, which offer you the opportunity to seek solace and healing with others who understand.
