Elderly Persons Disorders Therapists in Wichita, KS

We provide psychotherapy tailored to the unique needs of older adults, with a focus on supporting emotional well-being, life transitions, and overall quality of life in later years. Our approach addresses concerns such as grief and loss, depression, anxiety, chronic illness, cognitive changes, and adjustment to aging-related challenges. We integrate cognitive therapy principles and health psychology to support overall wellness, strengthen coping skills, and promote healthy behavior change. We work collaboratively with clients to enhance resilience and foster a sense of purpose, dignity, and connection throughout the aging process.

I can help with elderly phase of life issues. During our collaborative experience together, I will provide an empathic and caring space to help you move through your struggles, so you can live your best life. Together we will find ways towards a path of feeling better, leaning new coping skills to reconnect with your internal self.

I work with older adults and their families who are navigating cognitive changes, neurological conditions, and emotional challenges related to aging. Therapy focuses on emotional support, coping strategies, and maintaining quality of life while addressing concerns such as memory changes, adjustment to illness, and the stress that can come with these transitions.

Growing old is not for the faint of heart! Everything changes, our relationships, our bodies, our minds. Let me help you explore how to recreate yourself during these later years.

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.

Wichita's economy is anchored by aerospace manufacturing and agriculture, and therapists here frequently address the psychological pressures of industrial work, shift schedules, and the boom-bust cycles of manufacturing employment. The city has a large Hispanic population and growing Somali and Burmese communities from refugee resettlement, creating demand for multilingual and culturally informed therapists who work with immigration stress and cross-cultural family dynamics. Via Christi Health and Wesley Medical Center provide major institutional mental health resources, while the city's mid-size scale means many therapists maintain more accessible practices than in larger metros. Wichita's conservative faith community means spiritually integrated therapy is a common offering across many local practices.
