Elderly Persons Disorders
Josh Murray- Hopeful Minds
Psychologist, MA, LLP
Aging is a natural process that may present challenges for some individuals and their families. Although many older adults look forward to moving from middle age into their later years, it may be difficult for others to adjust.
All adults may experience health issues, loss, and general stress as they approach and pass middle age, and the support of a therapist or other mental health professional may help ease the transition.
Therapy can help older adults who may have difficulty with the transitions of aging manage their emotions, find new sources of enjoyment and meaning, and find new support systems. It can help people face their fears of death, if they have such fears, and deal with grief as friends and family members pass on. Family or individual therapy can also assist family members who may be caretakers of their elder relatives, as it can assist them in dealing with their emotions and communication issues that often develop.

Dr. Lisa C. Watson
Psychologist, PsyD, MPH
In my therapy approach for older adults, informed by my postdoctoral training in geropsychology, I begin with a thorough assessment to understand their life experiences and current challenges. I create a supportive environment and provide age-appropriate education about how aging can affect mental health. Together, we address specific issues like life transitions, chronic health conditions, and loss. I use evidence-based techniques such as reminiscence therapy, adapted cognitive restructuring, and behavioral activation to set achievable goals. Relaxation techniques and mindfulness exercises are integrated to enhance emotional resilience. Homework assignments, like practicing relaxation or reflecting on positive experiences, reinforce our work. Regular assessments ensure our interventions remain effective and responsive to their evolving needs, aiming to empower older adults to maintain or improve their mental health and overall well-being.

Elderly Persons Disorders
Limitless Changes
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW-C
I chose to specialize in elderly person disorders because I am deeply committed to supporting older adults as they navigate the challenges that come with aging. Many elderly individuals face issues such as dementia, depression, and physical decline, which can significantly impact their well-being and quality of life. By focusing on this area, I aim to provide compassionate care that helps enhance their emotional, cognitive, and physical health. My goal is to empower older adults to maintain their independence, improve their mental health, and foster a sense of dignity and connection in their later years.
