Getting to advanced age can be a blessing, but it also presents many challenges. Retirement, lifestyle changes, health issues, cognitive decline, are just some of those challenges. Finding purpose and value in all life stages requires accepting changes and adapting to new circumstances.

Mayra Bagnoli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Adapting to losses is the main important focus of therapy with the elderly but... Is it all? I happen to believe that as we adapt to losses and physical decline, we also gain self-knowledge, wisdom, and generosity. Getting old may be a period of conquests, of engaging in highly meaningful tasks that make your life worthy of living and more fulfilling. It is like choosing how you will leave the rest of your life- you can focus on all that is less and worst or you can focus on positive aspects such as wisdom, free time to enjoy tasks you never had time to pursue, working on spirituality and giving back to society. It is kind of changing the lenses you are seeing through and reinventing yourself.

Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Our needs can vary greatly as we age, and folks over 60 years old have unique needs that have to be addressed in very individual ways. This is often a reflective time of life, as one perhaps transitions to retirement, having children launch into their own lives, losing loved ones, and managing family expectations with your own health and capabilities. Through therapy, we can explore these areas to ensure you are getting the most out of this new life stage.

Lurline Aslanian
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, L.C.S.W.
There can be many challenges in growing older including the need for self acceptance and forgiveness of self and others. Sometimes life has not gone the way you had hoped. Sometimes you discover you actually have an opportunity to try something new or to discover a new purpose in life. I find that it is essential to discover meaning and to discover appreciation for the being that you are.
