Generations currently moving into their elder years are enjoying greater health and longevity while often holding expectations for vibrant, healthy, and active lifestyles. Learn to meet the needs of elders with vitality through individualized treatment adaptations and evidence-based interventions to address mood, brain, and chronic pain challenges. Drawing from neuroscience, polyvagal theory, and contemplative approaches, join us to integrate strategies that support your aging clients in transmuting losses into strengths during the elder years while increasing resilience and enhancing overall health and well-being.

Join Dr. Alvis for an informative, experiential seminar to gain important knowledge and skills that will help your elder clients thrive. Take home brief interventions designed to transform lives and enhance treatment outcomes.
