The Baby Boomers have emerged as the elders. Retirement, chronic illnesses, and even death are diminishing the boomers. Moreover, many boomers have lost loved ones prematurely. How are they dealing with grief and loss? Ageism intersects with various mental health illnesses that were silenced, unseen (undiagnosed), and medicated. How do we understand the generation of Baby Boomers and their mental health? How do we treat them? This workshop will explore best practices for younger generations providing therapeutic services to baby boomers. We will take a look at a few historical factors of clinical care (Asylum) to the advanced Behavioral Health Care in the community.
