After the death of my beloved mother and the near death and continued illness of my husband, I wondered how we healers can continue to serve our patients when we ourselves are in the midst of tough times. Maybe some of you have come up against this question too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\">What I discovered is, as songwriter Leonard Cohen writes, \u201cThe birds they sang\u00a0at the break of day. Start again\u00a0I heard them say.\u00a0Don’t dwell on what\u00a0has passed away\u00a0or what is yet to be.\u00a0Ring the bells that still can ring. Forget your perfect offering. <em>There is a crack in everything. That’s how the light gets in<\/em>.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\">It\u2019s this last part that has surprised me. What an unexpected gift is the grace and light that can emerge out of adversity. What I am learned continually deepens both my work and my home life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\">As we get older, we find ourselves adding to our toolkit of life skills. Mindfulness tools have reentered my life and work in a big way. And so has my intention to reach a much wider audience through teaching nationally about conscious aging.\u00a0 The need and demand for navigation help is so great as the boomer generation enters the unfamiliar terrain of older life.<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nancyrhine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/lost-confused-direction-sign.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-2836\" src=\"http:\/\/www.nancyrhine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/lost-confused-direction-sign-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"lost confused direction sign\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\">If you have friends, family or patients in these populations below who you think I might be able to help or if you have questions yourself, please feel free to reach out anytime:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\">People in their 50\u2019s, 60\u2019s and 70\u2019s waking up to their own sense of aging – often through illness or other changes in themselves or their loved ones. They seek answers, solutions, and guidance.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\">Adult children of aging parents who feel confounded and frustrated about how to best help their parents through a myriad of difficult circumstances. They are the sandwich generation with aging parents, children and often grandchildren too.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\">Families where adult children and aging parents need to and want to come to some new understandings and find a closeness now to the extent they can while they can still can.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\">People in their 80\u2019s and early 90\u2019s who are facing their last years with all that that entails – memories, regrets, fears, peace and contemplation \u2013 all healthy parts of this stage of life. Having a genuinely caring nonjudgmental skilled listener is so valuable.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\">You might already know that there are very few psychotherapists in Marin who have advance training in gerontology.

Telephone appointments are also available for people who do not live close by. \u00a0I provide a free initial phone consultation.
