As our loved ones age, it has become too easily accepted that they will be weak, unsteady and less capable. My personalized targeted approach replaces fear and hesitation with confidence, functional stability and enjoyment.
I specialize in providing easy to implement, functional activities & training for seniors of all ages and lifestyles. From our ‘Young Old’ to our ‘Oldest Old’, and for those with Dementia, Alzheimers & Parkinson’s Disease, I focus on providing holistic care tailored to your seniors’ specific needs. As a NASM Certified personal trainer for 35+ years with over 15+ years experience working in residential senior facilities throughout Connecticut, I look forward to helping your loved ones age better.
Creatively keep your loved one active and engaged with healthy, stimulating age appropriate activities.
Increase balance & functional abilities to assist with daily tasks through simple to learn, repetitive skills and exercises.
Engages through nostaglia & mindful stimuli like singing, storytelling, sharing memories and photos.
And so much more depending on your seniors health, lifestyle and individual situation.
Seniors need to stay active, have friends and enjoy their days too. Happier and more engaged elders live longer and age better.
Seniors need commitments. Having a “place to go” other than a doctor’s visit each week gives them something to look forward to!
The mind is a muscle, it still needs a good work out every day. Only meaningful human connection & conversation can foster continued brain health.
*In Person Services are only available for residents of Fairfield County & New Haven County. Remote services are available if there is in-person support (caretaker/home aide).*
It may be hard to imagine your senior logging in to an online training appointment… but they love it! It keeps them healthy, feeling young and savvy!
If your loved one is a resident of Fairfield County or New Haven County Residential facility, I offers flexible scheduling for my seniors.
If you’ve chosen to keep your loved one at home or aren’t ready for residential care, I’m happy to provide in home services if you are local to Connecticut.
Sue has been amazing asset for my Mom who is struggling with dementia. With a personally designed program for her, Mom is more agile physically and has good balance.
Sue has been working with my dad for several months now. My dad has dementia & no longer walks without assistance.
Sue creatively discovered how to engage my Mom with all of her interests and to contribute to maintaining her wellness: mental, physical & cognitive health connection, identifying needs that to be addressed by the Community’s staff.
I am married to my husband Alan for 40 years with two adult children and just recently became a grandmother for the first time. With the arrival of my granddaughter, I don’t wish to be simply “around” for her life; I want to be active and fully engaged in it. Good health, overall wellness and longevity are vital. My “glass half-full” outlook on life is fueled by my desire to help others.
As a NASM certified personal trainer for 30+ years, Wellness Coach, and 2 time Cancer survivor, I’d be honored by the opportunity to show your loved one a few simple lifestyle adjustments that will make a positive difference in their day to day life.
