- Short Description:
- This short course explores how brief, strength-based psychotherapy can support healthy aging, longevity, and quality of life in later years. Participants examine how humor, activity, social connection, and meaning-making protect against depression, isolation, and decline, even in the presence of illness or loss. The session blends clinical insight, real-world examples, and practical strategies for working with older adults, couples, and families, offering therapists concrete ways to promote resilience, engagement, and dignity across the aging process.
