Abstract
This article provides an identification and brie f discussion of some issues in counseling older people. Those considered are (a) why do we wish to provide counseling for older people?; (b) on what should such counseling be based?; (c) what might be achieved from counseling older people?; (d) how might costs be managed?; (e) when and where might counseling be provided?; (f) who might do the counseling?; (g) what approaches or procedures may be appropriate?; (h) should such counseling be evaluated? A thorough review of the literature on aging, with implications for counseling, is strongly recommended.Keywords
