Every day, 10,000 Americans turn 65. Yet there is still too little support for people 60 and better. While retirement may look comfortable, rising costs and limited income growth make the “golden years” more complex—socially, emotionally, physically, and spiritually.
With over 25 years of experience in aging—as a gerontologist, care manager, ombudsman, and estate law professional—I help people in their 50s and 60s plan ahead. Aging navigation offers clarity and relief by encouraging thoughtful decisions before services are urgently needed.
We begin with a brief conversation and a questionnaire to clarify goals, needs, and deal breakers—whether aging in place, moving to assisted living, co-housing, or closer to family. Together, we navigate aging and plan for the road ahead.
Topics include:
Where and how you want to age
Involving loved ones in decisions
Organizing your home and essential documents
Understanding hospice and cognitive decline
Drafting a will or trust, assisting wtih Advance Directives and POLST if appropriate.
Planning for pets and key records
Preparation isn’t just practical—it helps create a grounded, meaningful life.
