Submit to Clinician's Quandary!

Clinician's Quandary invites your take on how you'd handle tricky scenarios in practice! On the first Tuesday of every month, we'll pose a new Quandary and collect responses. Top answers from the previous month will be posted that same day and shared with your colleagues worldwide.

This month's Quandary:

I’m the oldest therapist in the clinic where I work—turning 70 this fall—and admittedly, it’s been the source of some insecurity. We just had two new hires, both recent graduates, and they bring a lot of energy to the work, always talking new approaches and evidence-based practices with long acronyms. I consider myself a very capable therapist as I am, but I’m not sure whether to dive into new trainings or think about retiring. What should I do?
