– but our older years can also bring difficult life transitions

Kirby’s Senior Life Solutions is an intensive outpatient group therapy
program designed to meet the unique needs of older adults typically ages
65 and older struggling with symptoms of depression and anxiety often
related to aging.
If you or someone you know are in crisis, seek help immediately.
