One of my primary interests is in working with older adults through life transitions.  Meaning making can be especially challenging as we age.  Retirement, changes in physical and mental health, loss of loved ones, isolation, and confronting one’s own mortality become the trials as we grow and make new meanings for our lives and futures.  My passion is in helping to ease the transition into the next phase of life and to explore what the future may become. 
 
I have had the pleasure of working with older adults through various stages of life: looking for new employment, handling the changes that retirement brings, “sandwich” generation challenges, memory and health concerns, changing self-image, and death and dying.  I have worked in skilled nursing facilities, assisted living facilities and in the client’s residence for homebound older adults, as well as in my office.

**Additionally I work with clients and their loved ones through various stages of dementia.  Please see my page on dementia for more information.
