Elderly Persons Disorders
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.

Elderly Persons Disorders
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.
