At Cognitive Caring PLLC, we provide highly specialized geriatric psychiatric care for older adults experiencing memory changes, mood symptoms, behavioral concerns, or complex emotional needs.
Led by Dr. Raymond Suarez, MD, Board-Certified Psychiatrist, our practice is devoted exclusively to the psychiatric care of aging adults. Every evaluation is comprehensive. Every treatment plan is deliberate. Every decision is guided by respect for dignity, safety, and quality of life.
Care begins with a detailed and unhurried evaluation.
Each initial consultation may include:
• In-depth psychiatric assessment
• Cognitive screening and memory evaluation
• Careful medication review and polypharmacy analysis
• Differentiation of depression, anxiety, dementia, or delirium
• Functional and safety assessment
• Coordination with primary care and specialty physicians when appropriate
Our approach is thorough, nuanced, and tailored to the complexities of aging physiology and cognitive change.
Prescribing in later life requires precision.
We emphasize:
• Thoughtful, evidence-based medication selection
• Minimization of side effects and drug interactions
• Deprescribing when appropriate
• Close monitoring for safety and effectiveness
• Adjustments aligned with evolving medical conditions
Every recommendation is measured, individualized, and designed to support clarity, stability, and overall well-being
We provide specialized care for individuals living with:
• Alzheimer’s disease
• Lewy body dementia
• Frontotemporal dementia
• Parkinson’s disease dementia
• Vascular dementia
• Mild cognitive impairment
Treatment extends beyond diagnosis. We address behavioral symptoms, mood changes, sleep disturbance, agitation, and anxiety with evidence-based strategies tailored to the individual.
Equally important, we guide families through understanding the diagnosis, planning for safety, and navigating next steps with clarity and confidence.
Emotional suffering in older adulthood is often underrecognized and undertreated. We provide expert care for:
• Late-life depression
• Anxiety disorders
• Bipolar disorder
• Trauma-related symptoms
• Adjustment challenges
• Complicated or prolonged grief
Our treatment philosophy integrates psychiatric expertise with deep respect for personal history, identity, and life experience.
We provide:
• Education tailored to diagnosis
• Behavioral management strategies
• Crisis prevention planning
• Coordination with trusted local New Hampshire resources
• Referrals to appropriate medical and supportive services
Families leave appointments with clarity — not confusion.
