title: [Report on professional workshops "Aging and psychotherapy"].
abstract: Since 1989, annual scientific meetings "Age and psychotherapy" have been held in Erlangen, and since 1991, in Bonn. For each meeting a special topic has been selected such as, "Multimorbidity and Psychotherapeutic Implications," "Dementia and Psychotherapy," "Sexuality and Partnership." In addition to scientific papers related to the topic, courses, seminars and workshops have been offered since 1992 to exchange practical knowledge about psychotherapy with the elderly (e.g., autogenic training, family work, Balint-group, family therapy, art therapy, psychotherapy in psychogeriatrics, self-experience workshop, assertiveness-training, supervision). In addition to advanced training and continuous education, the main objective of these meetings has been to offer a forum to share knowledge and experience with professionals working in psychotherapy with the elderly.
