Mental Health Services in Senior Care Settings
At Ultra Health Providers, we are dedicated to meeting the evolving needs of our aging population through compassionate, evidence-based mental health care. As residents enter Assisted Living and Nursing Home communities with more complex emotional, cognitive, and behavioral needs, we remain dedicated to providing the support, understanding, and expertise required to help them live with dignity and purpose.
​
Our Licensed Mental Health Professionals provide psychotherapy services within Nursing Homes, Assisted Living, and Independent Living communities, creating spaces where residents feel seen, heard, and valued. We believe that every individual—regardless of age or level of care—deserves the opportunity to explore their emotions, process life experiences, and find meaning in each stage of life.
​
Working in close partnership with facility staff, our clinicians strive to strengthen resilience, foster connection, and promote emotional healing. Together, we support the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—while empowering care teams to continue making a meaningful difference in the lives of those they serve.
Key Services
Comprehensive Mental Health Assessment
Our licensed mental health professionals begin with a thorough evaluation, including assessment, diagnosis, and the development of an individualized treatment plan. Therapy may be provided one-on-one, with couples or families, or in group settings, depending on each resident’s needs and facility context.
Crisis Intervention
Preventing unnecessary hospitalizations is a shared goal across senior care communities. Our clinicians are trained to identify sources of distress and intervene promptly to help residents stabilize and regain emotional balance.
Cognitive and Functional Assessments
Our team conducts assessments that evaluate cognitive functioning, emotional well-being, and daily coping skills to guide treatment and care planning.
Collaborative Care
We partner closely with nurses, physicians, social workers, and facility staff to ensure a coordinated approach that supports the resident’s overall health and quality of life.
Diagnosis and Treatment Planning
Clinicians use evidence-based practices to create individualized treatment plans that address mood disorders, anxiety, grief, adjustment issues, and other mental health concerns common in senior care populations.
Psychoeducation and Family Support
Our team provides education and guidance for residents, families, and care teams within senior living and long-term care settings to promote understanding of mental health conditions, treatment options, and effective coping strategies. Our clinicians collaborate closely with facility staff to ensure consistent support and reinforce therapeutic goals in daily care routines. Family engagement remains a vital component in maintaining continuity of care, enhancing quality of life, and promoting long-term emotional well-being for residents.
