Always free to families

Here's how I help.

Independent living, assisted living, or memory care — I help you figure out which one fits, then find the community that's right. My own road with my mom went through memory care, so that's where I go deepest.

1-on-1 Consultations

Start with a conversation to understand your loved one's needs — medical, emotional, practical.

Every senior living decision starts with a conversation. Tell me what you're seeing at home, what's changed recently, what's keeping you up at night. There's no form to fill out, no qualifying questions, no sales pitch. I'll ask the questions that help me understand what your loved one actually needs — not just the medical picture, but how they move through their day, what brings them comfort, what makes them feel safe.

Placement Advice

Get a hand-picked list of trusted memory care communities. No paid listings — just what's right for your family.

After we talk, I'll come back to you with two or three communities that genuinely fit your family — based on your loved one's care needs, your budget, your location, and what kind of environment they'll actually thrive in. I will never send you a list of every community in the area; my job is to narrow it down to the ones that make sense. And every community I recommend is one I've been inside, met the directors at, and seen up close. If I haven't been there, I won't recommend it.

Community Tours

Plan for in-person tours with the right questions to ask and the red flags to watch for.

Walking into a senior living community for the first time can be disorienting. The marketing materials are polished, the director is welcoming, the lobby smells like vanilla. I come with you and ask about the things that actually matter — staff turnover, what happens when care needs grow, how they handle the hard days. I notice what's happening in the activity room when nobody's performing for us. I watch how the staff talk to the residents who can't talk back.

After the tour, we debrief. The decision is always yours — but I'll make sure you're making it with eyes open.

Transition Support

From decision to move-in, you'll have someone by your side every step of the way — and after.

Choosing the community is only half the work. I help with everything between the decision and move-in day — care assessments, financial paperwork, doctor's orders, the medical history forms that nobody warns you about — and I coordinate with the community's move-in team so the day itself is as gentle as possible.

And after move-in, I stay. The first few weeks are often the hardest — for your loved one and for you. Call me if something feels off, if you have a question, or if you just need to talk through what you're seeing. I'm not gone after the placement happens. That's not how I work.

How I'm Paid

How I work — and how I'm paid.

I think you should know exactly how this works before we start. No fine print, no surprises — here's the whole thing.

  • My help is free to you.

    A community pays me a fee only if your family chooses to move in. You never pay me — not for a call, not for a tour, not for the work after.

  • That fee doesn't drive my advice.

    I recommend the communities that fit your loved one — not the ones that would pay me most. If a place that's right for your family pays me less, that's still the recommendation.

  • My list isn't every community in Atlanta.

    It's the handful I've personally walked and would trust for your family. If I leave one out that you've heard about, I'll tell you what I know and why it isn't on my list.

  • You're never locked in.

    You can stop working with me anytime, for any reason. No contract on your side, no questions, no follow-up pressure.

Georgia recently passed a law requiring every senior-living placement agency to disclose these things to families. I'm glad — it's how I work anyway. What the law means for families →

How I'm different

The questions you should ask any senior placement advisor.

Not just me. Whoever you're considering, these are fair things to ask. Here's how I'd answer — and what a typical national referral service usually looks like.

Senior Care Connections

The few I've personally walked that fit your loved one.

Typical national service

A long list, or only communities that pay to be in the network.

Questions before we start?

Ask me anything. I'd rather answer a hard question now than have you wonder later.
