Description

Every day ten thousand baby boomers turn 65, and by 2030 more than 20% of US residents will be 65 or older.

Mental health professionals must become familiar with the unique needs of this growing population. Using the APA Guidelines for Psychological Practice With Older Adults and the Pikes Peak Model for Training in Professional Geropsychology, this book shows mental health providers how to expand their practice in order to treat older adults.

Chapters describe tools and techniques for assessing and treating common conditions that practitioners encounter when working with older adults, including depression, anxiety, cognitive impairment, and prescription drug misuse.

Clinical case examples demonstrate how to deliver interventions while avoiding common interactional pitfalls.

Includes expert recommendations for assessment tools, additional readings, and online resources.
