Supporting Emotional Well-Being in Older Adults: Tips for Providers and Caregivers

Aging brings wisdom and perspective—but it can also bring new emotional challenges.

From loneliness and loss to changes in cognition and independence, older adults face complex experiences that impact mental health.

Join Marie Clouqueur, LICSW, for this free, expert-led session offering actionable insights and tools to support emotional well-being, foster connection, and improve quality of life for aging adults.

Why This Training Matters

As people live longer, mental health in later life has never been more important.

Depression, anxiety, and social isolation often go unrecognized in older adults, yet they profoundly affect overall health and independence.

This session helps providers and caregivers identify signs of emotional distress, reduce stigma, and build supportive environments that promote dignity, engagement, and joy. Attendees will learn how simple interventions—listening, validating, and fostering purpose—can make a life-changing difference.
