About Katrin Lynn
Why I'm in love with my job
It started with serving coffee. Lots and lots of coffee.
As a senior in high school, I was thrilled to get a job working in the dining room of a retirement community. I was introduced to a picture of aging that was so vibrant and joyful. These folks were hanging out with friends, falling in love, participating in sports, giving lectures, and fundraising for important causes. These weren’t the rocking chair and bingo senior stereotypes on TV! These people were COOL, and I knew I wanted to spend my career working with and for older adults.
As I went through my training in psychology and geriatric social work, my passion for working with older adults grew. I opened a private psychotherapy practice, where I help clients tackle issues of aging, both big and small.
But what about the folks who don’t necessarily “need” formal therapy, but could use some guidance on getting the most out of life? A place where I can share the tools and resources for healthy, happy aging with anyone who wants it? That’s where the idea of Katrin Lynn Consulting was born.
I'd love to have you join the community!
Growing. Older.
