Memory Consultation
A memory consultation is a gentle step towards understanding memory changes and putting strategies in place to support Living Well.
Noticing changes in memory can be unsettling for the person experiencing them and for the people who care about them. Questions often come up quietly at first: Is this normal? Should we be worried? What do we do next? A Memory Consultation offers a calm, supportive place to start those conversations.
Memory changes can happen for many reasons, including ageing, health conditions, stress, or neurological change. Everyone’s experience is different. A Memory Consultation focuses on understanding what’s happening for you, providing clarity where possible and supporting you and your family to feel less alone.
A Memory Consultation is often the first step in exploring memory concerns and deciding whether further assessment, support, or referrals may be helpful.

What to Expect in a Memory Consultation
Each consultation is tailored to the individual and their circumstances. Depending on your needs, this may include:
Understanding your experience — taking time to listen to your concerns and how memory changes are affecting daily life and relationships
Cognitive screening — gently exploring areas of thinking and memory to identify any concerns
Mood and wellbeing screening — checking for anxiety, low mood, or emotional distress that can accompany memory changes
Psychosocial assessment — understanding the broader context of health, support, and environment
Clear information and guidance — explaining findings in a way that is easy to understand
Referrals where appropriate — linking you with specialists, services, or further assessment if needed
Emotional support and counselling — supporting both the individual and family through uncertainty or stress
A personalised care plan — practical strategies tailored to your needs
Ongoing support and review — adjusting support as things change over time
You Don’t Have to Navigate This Alone
Memory changes can feel overwhelming but support can make a meaningful difference. A Memory Consultation provides reassurance, guidance and a clearer sense of ‘next steps.’ Whether you need further assessment, monitoring, information or supportive strategies, we find a path forward together.
