The later years of life holds many wonders, but often contain their share of problems. Relationships, work and leisure, adapting to retirement, death of loved ones, remarriage, financial concerns, relationships with adult children, relocation, health concerns, care of a chronically ill family member, or personal growth are just some of the issues that challenge adults 55+. An opportunity to share feelings, talk openly and explore alternatives with a trusted and experienced professional often leads to positive solutions and reduction of stress.
