About this Event

Understanding Anxiety and Depression in Later Life

Anxiety and depression are both common and treatable. Join psychiatrist Dr. Anthony Levinson to learn how to recognize the symptoms, understand what causes them, and explore proven approaches to feeling better—both Medic*tion-based and non-Medic*tion options. Whether you’re concerned about your own mental health or someone close to you, this session will offer insight, current evidence on different treatments, and helpful resources—including free online programs at UnderstandingAnxiety.ca and UnderstandingDepression.ca.

About the Bites & Insights Series

As we age, many of us want to know what we can do to stay healthy and live well. However, with an overwhelming amount of information available, it can be challenging to determine where to focus our efforts to achieve the greatest impact on our health and well-being.

Join researchers and experts from the McMaster Institute for Research on Aging (MIRA) for Bites & Insights, a community talk series designed to share practical, evidence-based ways to stay healthy and engaged in the activities you enjoy as you age. Each session includes time for audience questions and open discussion. Light refreshments will be provided.

Bites & Insights is made possible through the generous support of the Hamilton Community Foundation.
