I am here to help talk about all of the feelings and issues that come with growing older such as retirement, facing one’s mortality, dealing with frailty, adjusting to death of partners and friends, loneliness and isolation, lack of enjoyable and meaningful activities, and struggling with being able to take care of one’s own basic needs.
Since many older adults are not able to drive, I do make home visits. Whether at home or in my office, I provide a therapeutic environment through which I can help ease the isolation, provide emotional support, help adjust to the new reality, resolve some long standing conflicts, and enable the older adult to create a life that they feel is worth living.
