Does this sound like you?
"Am I doing the right thing for Mum?"
– Constant second-guessing about decisions, care choices, and whether you're helping or making things worse
"How much worse is this going to get?"
– Anxiety about the future, decline, and what’s coming next
"I can’t do this forever, but I feel so guilty for even thinking that"
– Torn between love, duty, and exhaustion
"Why won’t she just let me help her?"
– Frustration when Mum refuses help, denies problems, or becomes suspicious or angry
"I feel like I’m losing her piece by piece."
– Grief over the changes in her personality, memory, and connection, even while she’s still alive
If yes, you're in the right place.
My promise to you is that we can make this easier..

“When we first noticed changes in Dad, we didn’t know where to start. Melissa’s videos and checklists helped us make sense of what was happening and talk as a family without it turning into an argument. We finally felt like we had a plan and hope.”
Hayley C, Sydney
"The weekly Q&As have been a lifeline. Hearing Melissa answer questions, and realising other families are facing the same things, makes me feel less alone and more capable of handling what’s ahead. Thank you thank you!"
Anne S, Darlinghurst
“When Mom’s dementia got harder.. the wandering, the aggression, our family was falling apart. Everyone had a different idea of what to do. Melissa helped us see the bigger picture and gave us tools we could all agree on. We stopped spinning in panic and started working together with empathy instead of fear.”
Sam T, New York

“I used to feel angry and helpless watching Dad change. We were so focused on what he couldn’t do anymore. Melissa showed us how to understand what was really happening in his brain — and how to respond instead of react. The strategies were practical and easy to follow, and they brought real peace into our home.”

Hi, I'm Melissa Levi
I’m a Clinical Psychologist and author who has helped more than 1,000 families navigate dementia.
After over a decade supporting families through the hardest moments, I know this: every story is different, but the fear, confusion and exhaustion often feel the same.
And while you’re trying to hold so much, accessing specialist dementia support is often slow, limited or expensive… at a time when you need clarity now.
I created this program because it’s what I wish my own family had when we were caring for my grandfather — clear, practical, compassionate guidance to make the journey feel lighter and far less overwhelming.
You don’t have to do this alone. I’m here to help your family every step of the way.
Melissa
“Trying to get Dad into care nearly broke me. Every phone call felt like hitting a wall, and I didn’t even know what questions to ask. After going through Melissa’s program, I finally understood how the system works and how to advocate for Dad. It’s still emotional, but it’s not the constant panic it used to be.”
Libby W, Melbourne
“I used to feel angry and helpless watching Dad change. We were so focused on what he couldn’t do anymore. Melissa showed us how to understand what was really happening in his brain — and how to respond instead of react. The strategies were practical and easy to follow, and they brought real peace into our home.”
Mallory K, Toronto
“I didn’t realise how much I’d disappeared into caring for Mum until one day I couldn’t stop crying. Melissa helped me see that I could love her and still have a life. The strategies she shared, tiny shifts, really gave me breathing space. I’m showing up for Mum again, but from a steadier place.”
Mary L, Brisbane

Common questions
Is this for me/my family?
Are you navigating the ageing, dementia or caregiving journey with Mum, Dad or an ageing loved one? And do you want to understand more, make the journey a bit easier, feel less alone, and provide the best possible care?
If yes - this is absolutely for you!
Don't we need to see you in person?
This is the most common question I get, and the answer is no.
❌ Unfortunately, it's difficult finding affordable and available
professional help (I often have 6+ months waiting lists).
✔️ You can access my workshops and strategies 24/7
✔️ With every package, you get access to my weekly Q&A sessions, where I can answer your family's questions.
✔️ All of this for less than the cost of one face to face session
Is this just for Australians?
No. Ageing, dementia & caregiving is a universal experience.
We all share the same questions, fears and challenges.
The knowledge, strategies and resources in this program have been used by families around the world. Just note that being Australian, I use 'Mum' instead of 'Mom', 'Ageing' instead of 'Aging'.
What if this isn't right for me?
I'm confident that I can help you and your family. However, if my programs aren't the right solution for you, please contact me within 7 days for a full refund.
What access will I have to Melissa?
If you’re looking for me, this is where you’ll find me: Pre-recorded workshops, live webinars and weekly Q&A sessions. You can also connect with me, my team and other families through our private, member-only community; your extended village (coming soon).
