As the world’s population ages, the demand for caregiving services has surged. Alongside aging, many young individuals and children with disabilities also require caregiving support. Behr Psychology offers comprehensive caregiver support services to address caregiver stress and burnout.
While caring for a loved one is rewarding, caregiving can also be physically, emotionally, and mentally draining. Caregiver stress is daily and can manifest through persistent fatigue, overwhelming worry, and irritability. Other signs you may be experiencing caregiver stress include sleep disturbances, changes in appetite, and loss of interest in previously enjoyed activities.
Caregiver burnout is a state of emotional, mental, and physical exhaustion caused by prolonged caregiving. It often leads mood changes, chronic fatigue, and a weakened immune system. Recognizing and addressing these signs is crucial for the caregiver’s well-being.
At Behr Psychology, we provide specialized caregiver support services to help manage and mitigate caregiver stress and burnout.
Our services include:
Individual counseling

Self-care is essential for caregivers. At Behr Psychology, we emphasize the importance of setting boundaries, seeking professional help, and maintaining a healthy social life. Dementia caregiver support groups and general caregiver support groups are a wonderful opportunity to connect with others in similar situations and receive support. Our caregiver support services are designed to help you navigate caregiving challenges while protecting your health and well-being.
