Senior Counseling
About
My practice is based on the principles of cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and solution-focused therapy to help foster awareness and change. I emphasize a collaborative relationship with my clients and weekly homework assignments to help facilitate self-awareness and change. I like working with older adults and other adults going through life transitions, anxiety, depression, grief, loss, and other situational stressors. Many factors need to be considered when helping someone maintain autonomy while also ensuring personal safety and dignity.
My clinical practice focuses on mindfulness to help clients become more aware of how their thoughts and feelings influence their behavior and to help promote awareness and positive change. I use behavioral techniques and homework to help foster what was introduced in session. I also provide supportive counseling, caregiver support and grief work.
I love working with older adult women who for many years have been caring for others, not themselves, leading to a myriad of emotional issues like anger, anxiety and depression. Many caregivers have neglected their own support and self-care needs becoming overwhelmed and isolated, further exacerbating their symptoms and need for supportive therapy.
Many seniors report feelings of isolation when living alone, especially during the COVID 19 epidemic. Additionally, seniors with physical and or cognitive impairment also feel confined due to loss of functioning or loss of independence with normal activities of daily living.
Perhaps a Senior is in assisted living or a nursing home and has difficulty adjusting with feelings of confinement and or limited autonomy. While their comfort, activity level and safety have increased, they still may feel depressed, anxious or having a difficult time adjusting to their surroundings.
