Hi, I'm Melissa Levi
I'm a clinical psychologist and author, specialising in ageing, dementia and caregiving, who has spent the past decade helping more than 1,000 families walk this heartbreaking journey. I'm here to help your family too.
Together, we will reduce the stress and overwhelm, answer your family's questions, help solve challenges, and give you simple, practical strategies to make this journey a bit easier.
I'll help you to show up as the caregiver and person you want to be, so that you can stay connected to your Mum or Dad, spark more moments of meaning and joy, and ultimately, make the right decisions to offer them the best possible care.

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).
