Aging brings many joys - more time with family and freedom in retirement - but our older years can also bring difficult life transitions, including the loss of loved ones and stresses of age-related health concerns.
Franklin General Hospital's Senior Life Solutions program, an intensive outpatient group counseling program, is designed to meet the unique needs of individuals over the age of 65 struggling with depression and anxiety often related to aging.

Following an individual assessment, participants meet three times per week in a supportive, encouraging group setting.
The program staff includes a board-certified psychiatrist, licensed social workers, a registered nurse, and other professionals dedicated to the emotional well-being of the seniors in our community.
Family members, physicians, or other health professionals can refer individuals to the program. You may also refer yourself.
