Course Description
As mental health professionals, we spend our careers helping clients navigate life's transitions—yet few of us are formally taught how to help men prepare for the realities of aging.
This engaging and thought-provoking training introduces clinicians to practical, culturally responsive strategies for supporting men as they navigate identity, purpose, relationships, retirement, health changes, grief, and legacy across the lifespan.
Participants will explore how race, culture, masculinity, and sexual orientation influence the aging experience while learning evidence-based clinical interventions that can be immediately integrated into practice.
Using the Graceful Aging Clinical Framework, attendees will gain practical tools for assessment, treatment planning, and therapeutic interventions that promote resilience, purpose, and successful aging among diverse populations of men.
