Elderly Persons Disorders
Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
I have worked in settings where many of my clients were older adults; I love helping older adults continue to live a meaningful life guided by their personal values throughout the lifespan. I have extensive experience working with chronic conditions, learning to adapt to aging, navigating changing relationships in your later years, meaning-making and legacy (no matter how big or small), and coping with things like pain and functional limitations. I also have experience working with those experiencing cancer or in remission from cancer, life-limiting illness, and grief and loss.

Washington Psychological Wellness
Counselor/Therapist
Washington Psychological Wellness is a boutique-style mental health practice located in Gaithersburg, Maryland. At Washington Psychological Wellness, we have specialists for every age and stage across the lifespan. Our clinicians understand the unique environmental, psychological, cultural, and emotional challenges faced by geriatric and elderly populations. Our clinicians provide a non-judgmental collaborative environment in which one can take risks and explore different ways of thinking, feeling, and being. We aim to help one gain clarity about the underlying causes of their current distress, provide strategies to help them cope, and empower them to trust their inner voice and live each day authentically. Our therapists will tailor treatment to the unique age-related needs of each individual. Treatment will include an integrative approach consisting of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness meditation, existential/end-of-life counseling, solution-focused therapy, person-centered therapy, and other holistic and empirically validated therapeutic modalities. Our goal is to help the elderly continue to lead a life worth living. We are currently accepting new clients. Telehealth (online) therapy options are available. Call now to schedule your appointment!

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.
