Overview

Aging means moving through a journey filled with transformations - physical, emotional, social, and existential. In this process, challenges such as loss, changes in routine, loneliness, and the confrontation of deep issues that may have lain dormant throughout life often emerge. It is within this context that therapy reveals itself as a powerful ally in later life. More than treating symptoms, the therapeutic process at this stage of life can represent a reunion with oneself: an opportunity to reframe experiences, restore emotional bonds, strengthen self-esteem, and cultivate a more compassionate view of one's own life story. The therapist's qualified listening offers a space in which older adults can recognize themselves as active subjects, with desires, projects, and capacities that are still rich with meaning. Therapy in later life is not limited to repairing pains from the past; rather, it extends as an invitation to continuity - of relationships, of learning, of life. In this context, caring for mental health is also a reaffirmation of the right to live with dignity, autonomy, and well-being.
