Geriatric Psychiatry

Life after 65 brings its own unique joys and chal­lenges. If you’re nav­i­gat­ing changes in your men­tal health or sup­port­ing a loved one through theirs, we under­stand that this stage of life deserves spe­cial­ized care. At Duly Health and Care, we see you as a whole per­son with a life­time of expe­ri­ences, and tai­lor our approach to your needs. 

Our geri­atric psy­chi­a­try team part­ners with you to address the men­tal health needs that can emerge or evolve as we age. From man­ag­ing depres­sion to help­ing with major life tran­si­tions, we’re here to guide you through every step of your men­tal health journey.

Experts Who Care

Our spe­cial­ists com­bine their exten­sive train­ing and gen­uine com­pas­sion to help old­er adults nav­i­gate the com­plex­i­ties of men­tal health care lat­er in life.

What sets our providers apart is their deep under­stand­ing of how aging affects both the mind and body, how med­ica­tions inter­act dif­fer­ent­ly in old­er adults, and how life tran­si­tions impact men­tal wellness.

Con­di­tions We Treat Together

We’re here to help with a wide range of men­tal health con­cerns that affect old­er adults, including:

  • Depres­sion and Anxiety 
  • Grief and Loss 
  • Mem­o­ry Concerns
  • Sleep Dif­fi­cul­ties
  • Adjust­ment to Chron­ic Illness 
  • Sub­stance Use Concerns

Advanced Treat­ment Options That Make a Difference

We offer care that goes beyond tra­di­tion­al ther­a­py and med­ica­tion man­age­ment. Our advanced treat­ment options include cut­ting-edge ther­a­pies that can make a real dif­fer­ence when con­ven­tion­al treat­ments haven’t pro­vid­ed the relief you deserve.

Tran­scra­nial Mag­net­ic Stim­u­la­tion (TMS)

This inno­v­a­tive, non-inva­sive treat­ment uses mag­net­ic puls­es to stim­u­late spe­cif­ic areas of the brain, offer­ing new hope for severe depres­sion that has­n’t respond­ed to oth­er treatments.

Eske­t­a­mine (Spra­va­to)

A break­through treat­ment for treat­ment-resis­tant depres­sion, offer­ing a new path­way to heal­ing when oth­er med­ica­tions haven’t been effective.

Com­pre­hen­sive Med­ica­tion Man­age­ment

Our providers under­stand how med­ica­tions work dif­fer­ent­ly in old­er adults and care­ful­ly coor­di­nate with your oth­er doc­tors to ensure safe, effec­tive treatment.

Indi­vid­ual and Fam­i­ly Ther­a­py

One-on-one coun­sel­ing ses­sions tai­lored to your needs, plus fam­i­ly ses­sions to help loved ones under­stand how to sup­port you best.

Cog­ni­tive Behav­ioral Ther­a­py (CBT)

Evi­dence-based ther­a­py approach­es adapt­ed specif­i­cal­ly for old­er adults.
