This Psychology Month, we’re celebrating a psychologist at Baycrest who supports older adults and their families with empathy, expertise and evidence‑based care. For Dr. Dora Ladowski, Clinical Neuropsychologist, Neuropsychology & Cognitive Health at Baycrest, the highlight of their work is hearing directly from older adults about the experiences that shape their lives.
“When older adults bring their perspective and life experiences into discussions about cognitive health, I learn a lot about the things that are important to them. Their willingness to share their experiences and support each other helps build social connections that continue even after programs have ended.”
Through programs like Learning the Ropes and Memory Link, they empower clients with education, strategies and supports to help them protect their brain health and live with confidence.
"I provide education, support and skills-based interventions to empower people with memory challenges to cope in active ways, engage in health-promoting behaviours and maximize their quality of life. At Baycrest, psychologists help to make sense of complex clinical presentations, support clients’ autonomy, deliver thoughtful evidence-based care and conduct research to enhance clinical practice and client outcomes. I'm proud to work in a place where the input of psychologists is valued and in demand!"
