Description

As our aging population continues to grow, women’s health and aging are expected to become areas of increasing clinical focus for psychologists. Older adult women are projected to be a large portion of the aging population and with advanced age comes increased likelihood of multiple medical conditions and associated functional changes. Additionally, personal beliefs about aging can influence one’s engagement in health behavior, life satisfaction, and mental health wellbeing. Dr. Nicole Reynolds will explore how aging impacts older adult women and discuss strategies for how to promote aging well through a biopsychosocial lens including reframing aging, addressing functional limitations, planning for end-of-life, and risk mitigation strategies.
