About

Hi, I’m Karen Elliott, a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist who specializes in working with older adults. I’ve worked with older adults and their families both in medical and mental healthcare settings. Telehealth therapy may be new to you; actually, it’s new to a lot of us. Once you schedule an appointment a “link” will be emailed to you. All you need to do is click on it at the time of our appointment, and I’ll be up on the other side. Or, if you prefer, we can just talk on the phone. It’s whatever makes you most comfortable.

 

If you are facing the unique challenges and adjustments that come with the aging process, which may include life transitions, changes in relationships, chronic illness, loss of a loved one, anxiety, depression, or social isolation then you will receive empathetic listening, guidance, and validation to help you cope with these issues and maintain a sense of connectedness and purpose. I will also offer education and resources that best fit your specific needs as well.

 

I have specialized training in the stages of the aging process and the unique challenges older adults face and am well versed in the physical, cognitive, emotional, and social changes that occur with age, as well as the challenges of grief and loss, caregiving, autonomy, health concerns and end of life.  Yet it is my passion that brings me here and the desire to help you improve your quality of life.
