Aria Senior Care was founded on a simple but powerful truth: families facing memory loss from Alzheimer's, dementia, or Parkinson's disease need more than just clinical expertise. They need someone who truly understands what they're going through, both professionally and personally.
Executive Director Shannon Royes, a master's-level social worker and Dementia Care Certified Professional with over 20 years of experience, leads Aria Senior Care. The organization offers something rare in the memory care field: a combination of professional training and lived experience.
Shannon's commitment to memory care support isn't just professional, it's deeply personal. Having navigated her own family's journey through memory loss, Shannon understands firsthand the confusion, fear, and isolation that caregivers face.
She knows what it's like to juggle work, family, and caregiving. She understands the guilt, the exhaustion, and the desperate search for guidance when nothing makes sense anymore. She's experienced the loneliness of feeling like no one truly understands what you're going through.
This dual perspective shapes everything about how Aria Senior Care works with families. Shannon doesn't just bring textbook knowledge to your situation. She brings real understanding, genuine empathy, and practical wisdom earned through her own experience.

About 7 million Americans over 65 have dementia, and that number continues to grow. Memory loss is happening earlier, sometimes in people's 50s. Yet despite how common it is, families often feel shame and isolation.
They want to protect their loved one's dignity and guard who they used to be. They worry about judgment and feel embarrassed to talk about what's happening.
At Aria Senior Care, we create a safe space where families can be honest about their struggles without fear of judgment.
Whether you only have an iPhone for FaceTime, prefer Zoom video calls, or want a traditional phone conversation, we adapt to what works for you.
For families in Houston and surrounding areas, we offer in-person support.
For families anywhere else in the nation, we provide the same compassionate, expert care through virtual sessions.
Your comfort and convenience matter to us.
Every session is designed to give you actionable strategies you can use immediately. We don't just offer emotional support, though that's important. We teach you specific techniques for managing challenging behaviors, creating safer home environments, and navigating complex medical systems.
You'll leave each session with concrete tools that make a real difference in your daily life.
Memory loss from Alzheimer's, dementia, or Parkinson's disease doesn't just affect one person; it impacts the entire family emotionally, physically, and mentally. We recognize this reality and provide support that addresses everyone's needs.
We help families communicate better, resolve conflicts, and come together around shared goals. We provide a neutral, experienced voice that helps restore harmony during a difficult time.
