Description:

Simple yet key approaches to therapeutic work with the aged are often overlooked in favor of addressing pathology and determining treatment plans. This book fills the gap by explaining the overarching strategiesâ€”including how to avoid ageism and other common pitfalls, and how to promote age-related strengthsâ€”essential to effective therapy with elderly clients.
