Retirement, health news, losing people you love, and shifting roles in the family can all come close together. Counseling here offers an unhurried, private place to talk them through, in downtown Tampa or by telehealth. Tampa office + Telehealth across Florida Book a Session: https://jason.mytheranest.com/appointments/new ## At a glance - Who it helps Seniors and older adults, and couples in later life - Format In person in Tampa and secure telehealth across Florida - Location Tampa, 400 N Ashley Dr, Ste 1900 - Approach Unhurried, respectful and practical ## Changes that can come with later life Some of the biggest adjustments in life can arrive later on. Work that gave the week its shape comes to an end. Health, your own or a partner's, starts to need more attention. Friends move away or pass on. Adult children build lives of their own, sometimes far away, and the balance of who looks after whom begins to shift. Each change might be manageable on its own. Together they can be a lot to absorb. - **Retirement:** Finding purpose and structure when the working week ends. - **Health changes:** Adjusting to new limits, ongoing appointments, or a partner's illness. - **Loss:** Grieving a spouse, friends or siblings, sometimes more than once in a short span. - **Caregiving:** Looking after someone you love while your own needs wait their turn. ## An hour that is just for you If you are used to being the steady one, the person everyone else leans on, it can feel unfamiliar to have an hour where the focus is entirely on you. That is what therapy offers: space to say what you have been carrying without worrying about burdening your family, and room to think about what you want the coming years to hold. Sessions move at a pace that suits you. Some weeks are about practical decisions, others about memories, regrets or the people you miss. The grief and loss page (https://psiwellnessinc.com/grief-and-loss) describes how loss is held in the work, and life transitions (https://psiwellnessinc.com/life-transitions) covers bigger changes such as retirement or moving to a new home. Later life still has room for change, and for being properly heard. ## Mood, memory and your health Low mood in later life is sometimes brushed off as a normal part of getting older. It deserves to be taken seriously, and depression therapy (https://psiwellnessinc.com/depression-therapy) describes how that work goes. Worry about memory is another concern worth raising. Changes in memory are a medical question first, so a physician is the right place to start, and therapy can support you with the feelings and decisions that follow. Diagnosis and medication sit with medical providers, and I am glad to work alongside your physician when that would help. A free 15-minute consultation is the simplest place to start. No commitment, just a short conversation about what you are looking for. Book a Session (https://jason.mytheranest.com/appointments/new) ## In person or by video Sessions are available at the downtown Tampa office at 400 N. Ashley Drive, Suite 1900, and by secure video anywhere in Florida. If video is new to you, there is no special software to learn. I send a private link, you click it at the appointment time, and if you have never done a video session before, I will walk you through the first few minutes. A phone, tablet or computer with a camera is enough. The telehealth page (https://psiwellnessinc.com/telehealth-therapy-florida) has more detail. Couples in later life are welcome too, whether you are adjusting to retirement together, facing a health change, or finding new routines in a long partnership. Couples therapy (https://psiwellnessinc.com/couples-therapy) explains how those sessions work. Fees and insurance are covered on the rates page (https://psiwellnessinc.com/rates). Benefits are verified for each person before a first session, so tell us your plan when you get in touch. ## Common questions ### Is it unusual to start therapy later in life? Not at all. Wanting support has no age limit, and later life can be the first time there is real space to reflect. ### Can a family member help set up the first appointment? Yes. An adult child or partner can help make contact or set up a video session. The sessions themselves are yours. ### Do I need to be good with technology for telehealth? No. You need a device with a camera and a steady connection, and I will walk you through the first few minutes. In person sessions in downtown Tampa are always an option too. How the work goes ## An unhurried path from first contact. 1. 01 ### Consultation We begin with a free 15 minute consultation to talk through what brings you in and whether we are a good fit. 2. 02 ### A plan that fits you We talk through what is weighing on you most and choose a gentle place to begin. 3. 03 ### Steady progress From there we meet at a steady pace, notice what is helping, and adjust the plan as life changes. ## Related - Grief and Loss Support through losses large and small. https://psiwellnessinc.com/grief-and-loss - Life Transitions Retirement, moves and new chapters. https://psiwellnessinc.com/life-transitions - Telehealth in Florida Secure video sessions from home. https://psiwellnessinc.com/telehealth-therapy-florida ## Begin when you're ready.
