It’s not all golf and ocean breezes. Even in paradise, life can still feel heavy.
· Are you’re the one everyone calls when they need help, but who can you call?
· Family drama still finds its way into your peaceful retirement?
· You’re smiling at lunch but worrying about memory at night?
· You don’t want to burden friends, but sometimes you feel invisible?
· You have time, but not always the clarity or motivation to enjoy it?
· Worried you are relying too much on family and friends for mental health support?
Real support for the life behind the lifestyle is available
At Strive Hive, we have therapists who understand the challenges facing older people, whether you are tired of being the “strong one” all the time or feel you are a burden to others. We understand that getting older doesn’t mean your challenges shrink - sometimes they get sharper, even if life appears ‘good’ from the outside.
Whether it’s grief, changing family dynamics, memory worries, or just needing someone who really listens and is willing to help, we’re here.
No small talk. No judgment. Just support that respects your life experience.
What we help with:
· Relationship stress and family boundaries
· Ageing, memory concerns, and health anxiety
· Loneliness (even in a full house)
· Sadness, irritability, or loss of purpose
· Transitions to retirement, downsizing, changing roles
· Learning to say “no” and set limits
· Working out how life could be better, even if you are getting older
Give us a call to discuss practitioner availability, referral pathways, fees and to have any questions you may have answered. We're here to help!
