Working with seniors brings me immense joy and fulfillment. Their wisdom and life experiences make each interaction a valuable learning opportunity for me. Guiding them through important life transitions, whether it’s adjusting to retirement, coping with medical conditions, or dealing with the loss of loved ones, is an honor I cherish deeply.

Online therapy has proven to be just as effective for certain mental health conditions as face-to-face sessions, especially for seniors. Many seniors may face challenges related to transportation or mobility, making it difficult for them to attend in-person sessions. By providing therapy online, we create a comfortable and familiar environment for them, allowing them to receive the support they need from the comfort of their homes.
Throughout my career, I have worked extensively with seniors, offering individual therapy, group therapy, and conducting both cognitive and personality assessments. I have supported individuals dealing with severe mental illness and various general medical conditions. Currently, at Total Life, my focus is on providing individual psychotherapy, addressing issues such as anxiety, chronic pain, depression, grief, loss, and life transitions.
My therapeutic approach is characterized by warmth and empathy, creating a safe space for clients to explore their emotions and experiences. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and a person-centered approach, guiding individuals to develop self-acceptance while equipping them with coping skills to improve their well-being. Additionally, I incorporate psychoeducation and mindfulness techniques to create an integrative approach to therapy.
