ADULT AND OLDER ADULT TREATMENT

Mental health services for adults must be skillful, thorough and timely in the lives of patients and families so that it leads to improved overall health. My assessments and treatment services are comprehensive and specific to adults and older adults.

Older adults may often experience different and unique issues. Inability to concentrate, forgetfulness, withdrawal from friends or activities, decreased energy and fatigue is often misinterpreted as being part of growing older. But these signs may be related to a treatable mental health condition. Many factors can lead to mental health concerns in older adults, such as:

• Stress due to the loss of a loved one or other stressors.
• Medical conditions such as cancer, heart disease, nutritional deficiencies.
• Genetics due to having a biological vulnerability that can be triggered by the aging process.
