Elderly Issues
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.

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.

Springfield is Missouri's third-largest city and the hub of the Ozarks region, home to Missouri State University and several other colleges, which gives it an active student population alongside a broader community of families, retirees, and healthcare and service sector workers. The cultural landscape of southwest Missouri is predominantly evangelical and conservative, which influences how mental health is perceived in the community, though awareness and acceptance of therapy have grown considerably in recent years. CoxHealth and Mercy Hospital both operate significant behavioral health programs in Springfield, making the city an important regional resource for mental health care across the rural Ozarks. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, depression, faith and religious identity, family and relationship issues, and the particular stresses of navigating mental health care in a region where stigma is gradually but meaningfully declining.
