Seniors

elder homepage1 Dear Fellow Seniors,

What’s 40+ years of experience worth to you?

As senior-level Licensed Clinical Psychologists, we did not learn the artistry of our guild-craft of providing consistently excellent psychological services counseling and psychotherapy just the other day. Rather, we have lived it and we have practiced it, diligently and assiduously, day in and day out, for well over 40+ years!

For the fortunate few, our golden years can be… well, golden, the best years of our lives.

But for many, growing older means isolation, loneliness, estrangement, and loss after loss.

Aging can bring serious health concerns, never-ending doctor-after-doctor visits, never feeling well, and constant worry that one slip, one fall, can change everything in a heartbeat.

Aging can mean pining for our long-gone past or preparing for our uncertain future. Tomorrow being promised to no one, time is, evermore, precious.

If you struggle with depression and/or anxiety, if you are pained by haunting trauma, if you are grieving, if you need to reconcile regrets and make peace with your past, if you hope to re-invent yourself growing and going forward, or, if you are searching for meaning and purpose, we are here to help you.

“As brothers, professional practice partners, and best friends, we bring you our very best and treat you as we would want ourselves, as well as, our own loved ones, to be treated.”

Sincerely,

Dr. Larry B. Gelman and Dr. Glenn B. Gelman
