Dementia Diagnosis

Get clear on what’s happening — and what to do next.

​​​​

  • “What if this really is dementia?”

  • “What does this mean for Mum or Dad… and for me?”

  • “What do we do next?”

  • “How do we make the right decisions?”

If you’re noticing changes or have just received a dementia diagnosis, this stage can feel confusing, scary, and overwhelming — for your whole family.

 

I’ve helped more than 1,000 families, and I can help yours too.

What to expect:

Get clear next steps - with the questions to ask, the checklists to follow, and the conversations that will help you feel confident you’re doing the right thing for your parent.

Early warning signs checklist – what’s normal vs. not

Conversation scripts & family guides – talk to Mum/Dad without conflict

Doctor & Geriatrician question lists – make every appointment count

Referral templates & prep checklists – know your next steps

Short video lessons – I'll clearly explain each step

Weekly Q&A sessions – I'll answer directly your families questions, and learn from other families too

Hi, I'm Melissa Levi

I’m a Clinical Psychologist and author who’s helped more than 1,000 families navigate the dementia journey.

 

After over a decade sitting beside families facing dementia, I’ve learned a few things:

  • Every story is unique — but the fear, questions, and exhaustion often feel the same.

  • Access to specialist dementia support is limited and often expensive. Waiting months for help isn’t good enough when your family needs answers now.

  • With the right guidance, caring for someone with dementia can feel lighter, clearer, and far less overwhelming.

I created this complete roadmap to offer what I wish my own family had 15 years ago when we were caring for my grandfather — real, practical support that reduces the overwhelm and creates many more moments of joy.

You don’t have to do this alone.

Melissa

“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’s sessions 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.”

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

 

Having said all of that, if you still would like to see me 1:1,

please have a look here and get in touch.

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 Talking Ageing isn't the right solution for you, please contact me.

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).​
