As you grow older, there are problems you may face such as: the stress of an illness, the loss of a job or a loved one, or a family conflict. These problems may leave you feeling confused, isolated, grief, depressed, lonely, and angry.

Senior Peer Counselors are highly trained, non-judgmental volunteers who are committed to providing one on one counseling on the phone or in person, and accepting you as you are in the moment. Listening with empathy and compassion, together with their lived experiences, they can support you in your challenging times and help you work through your feelings and emotions so that you may continue to live a full and satisfying life.
