San Fernando Valley District Presents

 

Parenting After Fifty: Identifying and Treating Issues between Parents and Adult Children

 

Presented By: Marsha Spike, LCSW, Nickie Godfrey, LMFT, Charles Lerman, Ph.D., & Yoloanda Noack, LCSW

 

Overview:

This is a panel of experienced therapists (practicing in the San Fernando Valley) that have collaborated for many years on developing strategies for parents aged 50 or older to understand and improve their relationships with their adult children.

Just as therapists have focused on the issue of separation as a developmental task for young adults, this presentation will focus on the parent's own tasks of separating and transitioning as their children grow older.

Material to be covered:

  • Accepting-their children's major decisions (ex. career, marriage, etc.)
  • Differentiating- between financial support and enabling
  • Understanding- children's need to define their own lives

Objectives:

1) Participants will be able to help their clients identify and work through barriers to accepting their life choices.

2) Participants will be able to help their clients redefine their role as parents of adult children.

3) Participants will learn how to introduce the concept of separation/ individuation to their clients-- both to understand their own past and in turn to improve their relationships with their adult children.
