Mental Health for Seniors
Therapy for Seniors & Older Adults in New York.
Compassionate counseling for seniors and older adults across New York. Grief, loss, life transitions, loneliness, and finding purpose in this season.
This season of life deserves care, too.
There's a quiet idea out there that once you reach a certain age, you're supposed to have it all figured out. But life keeps changing — and some of its biggest changes come in these years. Retirement. Losing people you love. A body that doesn't move the way it used to. Grown children with busy lives. Days that can feel longer and lonelier than they used to.
You've carried a lot, for a lot of years. You don't have to carry it alone now.
Who I work with
Older adults navigating this chapter, and the adult children and caregivers walking alongside a parent or loved one. If you're wondering whether therapy is "for someone my age" — it is. It's for anyone still living, still feeling, still growing. And that's you.
What we can work on
-
Grief and loss — the passing of a spouse, siblings, friends; grieving the life or the abilities you once had
-
Life transitions — retirement, moving, shifting roles, figuring out what gives your days meaning now
-
Loneliness and isolation — rebuilding connection and purpose in a season that can feel quiet
-
Anxiety and depression — which are common in later life, and very treatable, at any age
-
Caregiver support — for those caring for a spouse or aging parent while quietly running low themselves
-
Legacy and purpose — reflecting on your story, your faith, and what you still want to give and do
My Approach
My work is patient, respectful, and unhurried. I draw on proven approaches — Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, life-review and reminiscence work, and grief-focused care — to help ease what's weighing on you and rebuild a sense of steadiness and meaning, while honoring your history, your faith, and your dignity every step of the way. More than any technique, I bring genuine listening. Your story is far from over, and it's worth tending to.
A Gentle Next Step
Sessions are online and secure, so you can meet from the comfort of home — no travel, no waiting rooms. Available across New York, most weekdays and evenings. If getting set up online feels daunting, I'll walk you (or a family member) through it simply.
