Description

Loss. Physical ailments. Regrets about the past. Anxiety about the future.

Often overlooked in clinical training, the needs of aging clients are unique...

...and while most mental health professionals don’t feel equipped to treat them, the truth is that you can easily supplement your existing skillset and expand your practice so that you can provide needed care for anxiety, depression, grief, and more in this rapidly growing yet profoundly underserved population.

Join Dr. Katherine King, geropsychology expert, to discover the latest evidence-based assessment approaches and intervention strategies to transform your practice with older adults. You’ll get the roadmap you need and the necessary skills to:

  • Differentiate depression from delirium and dementia – and address other common diagnostic challenges
  • Employ Life Review and Reminiscence Therapy, CBT, DBT, ACT, and IPT to support aging clients through life transitions, illness, and end-of-life issues
  • Identify legal aspects of serving older adults, such as recognizing elder abuse, financial exploitation, and self-neglect

REGISTER TODAY to gain the confidence you need to be ready to provide the best care possible for aging clients!
