Abstract
Psychotherapy with the elderly, like geriatric medicine, has become a subject of renewed interest. This paper will review some pertinent aspects of the subject and hopefully dispel some myths. A case will be presented where psychoanalytically oriented psychotherapy was employed. In this case, forced termination was necessary after one year due to the therapist graduating from residency.
