About
Superior Companion Care
An individual in crisis presents challenges for the whole family. Here are some questions to reflect on as you consider companion services:
- Is the situation unmanageable?
- Are there safety concerns?
- Has working with experts been unsuccessful?
- Are legal issues mounting?
- Have you tried institutional care?
- Is support needed post-rehabilitation to prevent relapse?
- Are medications and physician advice not being followed?
If you answered yes to one or more questions and need personalized onsite support for a week, a month or more, I may be able to help.
My Approach
I spend time with individuals to keep them safe during turbulent times. Each individual is unique, so I tailor support to situational needs. Sometimes this means providing 24/7 oversight to an individual in crisis who is perhaps manic and not sleeping. Other times it may mean simply being there as a friend in the first few weeks or months following detox or inpatient treatment.
For each companion service, our time includes partnering on daily living tasks paired with healthy activities such as camping. hiking, skiing, backgammon, reading, watching movies or whatever helps the individual restore and return to center.
While I am not a mental health specialist, my job is to encourage individuals to trust and follow the advice of their professional healthcare providers. I am an on-the-ground advocate to develop a positive relationship with individuals and help them realize the many benefits of working with healthcare providers so that they can return to their day-to-day life.
