This on-line interactive workshop will begin with a viewing of "Wo oden Nickels," a video showing adult children attempting to talk among them selves, and with their mother, about fears related to the mother's memory p roblems. The workshop will then focus on therapeutic approaches to working collaboratively to meet the challenges of this stage in an aging parent's l ife and in the lives of the adult children. At the conclusion of this progr am the participants will be able to (1) discuss two or more ways family dyn amics may complicate family communication around support and caretaking of aging parents, (2) identify two ways psychotherapists can help family membe rs overcome barriers to having such conversations, and (3) discuss two psyc hoeducational strategies to increase understanding of signs and symptoms of cognitive and physical decline and the many resources available to familie s and therapists to help with these issues.
