About NeSonya Parker — Your Advocate in the Triangle
NeSonya Parker is a Certified Senior Advisor (CSA®), holder of a PhD and a Master of Social Work (MSW), and the founder of Radiant Senior Advisors, LLC. With over 20 years of experience in the field of senior care and social services, she brings rare depth — both academic and practical — to every family she serves in the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill Triangle.
Personal Story:
NeSonya’s path into senior placement was not only professional — it was deeply personal. Like so many families in the Triangle, she experienced firsthand what it means to love someone who is aging, to watch their needs change, and to search for answers in a system that can feel overwhelming and impersonal. That experience is the reason she founded Radiant Senior Advisors: to be for other families the steady, knowledgeable guide she wished her own family had.
How NeSonya Practices:
At Radiant Senior Advisors, NeSonya practices what she calls radical transparency. She will tell you honestly what she knows, what she does not know, and what your options truly are — including communities that are not her referral partners, when they are a better fit for your family. She takes no shortcuts, makes no assumptions, and walks with your family from the very first conversation through the first month after your loved one is settled.
