If your mortgage is one that you have had for a long time, you may be able to refinance the balance over more years at a better rate of interest.
Start thinking about other bills that you have that can be lowered by either paying them off with a new loan or only making the minimum payments on all credit accounts except for the one with the highest rates and pay that first and then the next and keep going down the line.
A lady where I work is nearly 70 and had 18 credit card accounts. 4 of these were with the same company.
I helped her combine these 4 all into one card. (and one payment) Now we are moving the remaining 14 cards into as little as 5 cards.
When she is done, her minimum payments will be significantly lower and she can apply the savings to bringing down her debt load.
Another step is to economize. The only way to do this is to actually budget to see where your money is going. You may be surprised how much discretionary spending is taking place that you don't realize because it is just a little each day, but adds up to thousands per year.
