MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
When I began my practice, I was already in my mid 60s and assumed I would specialize in older adults. As a specialist in sexuality, I have helped many clients who come to me with sexual issues, most related to aging. I've become an expert of elder sexuality, assisting clients who want to continue to enjoy a healthy and satisfying erotic life. I have helped clients overcome erectile dysfunction, inability to orgasm, low desire, pain with sex and other problems. Many clients come to me post divorce or widowhood, who have not been sexual or even touched for decades and whose bodies have gone numb. Lack of education is a big problem for many and just learning about what is "normal" and what is possible is a huge game changer. Often, there needs to be a clearing of emotional issues that needs to be cleared. More recently, I have begun working with clients who have medical issues related to aging, working with people who are dealing with Parkinsons, IBS, Cancer, etc. Finally, as we age often we become anxious and fearful about our mortality, something that I can definitely help with as a hypnotist.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in geriatric care, my approach to treatment is holistic, person-centered, and tailored to the unique needs of older adults. I prioritize building a trusting and compassionate therapeutic relationship, recognizing the diverse life experiences and challenges that come with aging. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), supportive counseling, and reminiscence therapy, I address a wide range of concerns including adjustment to life transitions, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, and cognitive changes. I collaborate closely with other healthcare professionals and family members to ensure comprehensive care and support. Additionally, I integrate strengths-based approaches to help older adults identify and leverage their resilience and coping skills. My goal is to promote emotional well-being, enhance quality of life, and empower older adults to navigate the aging process with dignity and resilience.
