About the event
Midlife, the period that spans the “old age of youth” and the “youth of old age,” brings new challenges as well as amplifying old conflicts and deficits. Success or failure at coping with the tasks of this period can mean the difference between negotiating a transition and suffering a crisis. This talk will present core ideas about midlife as a developmental period drawing on the work of Erikson, with some brief clinical examples.

Then we will watch and discuss several clips from a recent film, Logan, that illustrates some of these issues in dramatic form. Attendees may also be interested in a recent article published by Dr. Wheeler on this topic.
