Psychotherapy with older individuals necessarily requires a sensitivity to the mature and well-traveled aspects of the older individual, as well as an understanding of the earlier time in which these individuals grew up and how that impacts their perception of the world and themselves in relation to others. We accept Medicare in order to be able to work with these individuals.

Elderly Persons Disorders

Dr. Lisa C. Watson

Psychologist, PsyD, MPH

In my therapy approach for older adults, informed by my postdoctoral training in geropsychology, I begin with a thorough assessment to understand their life experiences and current challenges. I create a supportive environment and provide age-appropriate education about how aging can affect mental health. Together, we address specific issues like life transitions, chronic health conditions, and loss. I use evidence-based techniques such as reminiscence therapy, adapted cognitive restructuring, and behavioral activation to set achievable goals. Relaxation techniques and mindfulness exercises are integrated to enhance emotional resilience. Homework assignments, like practicing relaxation or reflecting on positive experiences, reinforce our work. Regular assessments ensure our interventions remain effective and responsive to their evolving needs, aiming to empower older adults to maintain or improve their mental health and overall well-being.
