Senior Peer Counseling is a free, confidential, voluntary, peer support, in-home program for Placer County residents aged 55 years or better, who are dealing with age-related adjustment issues.

As we age, life transitions can sometimes be painful or difficult to adjust to. Sometimes it is helpful to talk with someone near your age.

• Grief
• Caregiver stress
• Change in individuals' sense of independence
• Family conflict
• Loneliness
• Situational depression or anxiety
• Loss of a companion
• Medical diagnosis
• Physical disability
• Retirement
• Relocation
• Change in health
• Other age-related concerns
