Every day, we see smiles… from family, coworkers, caregivers, and even ourselves. Yet behind those smiles, there are often untold stories of stress, fatigue, or quiet struggles. October’s National Depression and Mental Health Screening Month is a powerful reminder to check in with ourselves and each other. At Avery Cares Health Services, we bring gentle, person-centered support to your doorstep, so healing can happen where you feel safest: at home.
Who We Support at Home
Mental-health needs show up differently for everyone. Our caregivers provide companionship and emotional support for:
Depression or anxiety related to aging, illness, or life changes
Caregiver stress & burnout for family members doing it all
Dementia or Alzheimer’s-related mood and behavior changes (wandering, agitation, sundowning)
Post-hospital, post-stroke, or post-surgery adjustment, including fear, low motivation, or isolation
Grief, loneliness, or loss of routine following a major life event
We use gentle, trauma-informed, person-centered approaches that promote calm, dignity, and routine — always seeing the whole person behind the smile.
What In-Home Emotional Support Looks Like
Companionship & conversation to reduce isolation and lift mood
Structured daily routines (meals, light activity, hydration, rest cues) that lower anxiety
Coping prompts & reassurance during moments of worry or low mood
Caregiver respite so family members can rest without guilt
Coordination with your care team (with permission) to keep everyone aligned
We are a home-care provider. We don’t replace licensed therapy or psychiatry — we complement them by supporting daily life, consistency, and comfort at home.
Small Steps That Make a Big Difference
Breathe & reset: brief quiet moments throughout the day
Open up: share how you’re feeling with someone you trust
Keep a gentle routine: predictable rhythms reduce stress
Add joy on purpose: music, sunlight, a short walk, favorite activities
You deserve peace, not just responsibility.
