description Older adults significantly underutilize mental health services relative to their numbers in the population. Barriers that impede their access include physical, financial, cognitive, emotional, and attitudinal issues. This article discusses strategies for overcoming these barriers, including physical adaptations such as in-home psychotherapy and telephone sessions, use of support groups, strong community outreach, and liaisons with other professionals. Adaptations that help to increase older adults' use of mental health services are discussed, including education about treatment, nontraditional "pursuit" of clients, and use of alternative terminology. Informed consent is discussed as a special issue.
