Therapists for Seniors in Hollywood, CA
My ideal clients are men who are doing well on the outside—but internally feel stuck, overwhelmed, or off track.
Many are high-functioning professionals, entrepreneurs, or driven individuals who are used to figuring things out on their own. They’re not necessarily in crisis, but something isn’t working the way it should.
They come to therapy for things like:
anxiety, overthinking, or constant mental pressure, difficulty with dating, relationships, or communication, feeling stuck, unmotivated, or unsure of their next move, stress, burnout, or trouble “turning their mind off," and wanting more confidence, clarity, and direction.

We create our personal reality through the power of our consciousness. It’s a remarkable fact. But manifesting a fulfilling, joyful, purposeful life doesn’t just happen. It requires psychological, emotional, and spiritual tools that are rarely, if ever, taught to us. Employing and teaching these tools over the past 31 years in private practice, I've specialized in helping conscious creatives find fulfillment, joy, and professional success. Through a deep, transformative process, you’ll complete your unfinished emotional business and discover a more peaceful and effective version of yourself. This will change absolutely everything.

I do my best to keep an open mind and to create an environment that is conducive to fostering open communication and trust. I respect and value the thoughts and feelings of my client's. I believe that therapy is, ultimately, about freedom and that healing occurs through the process of self-exploration, understanding, finding meaning and deepening one's insight. I tend to work directly and dynamically, rather than passively; I do a lot of listening and I am also active in the therapeutic role.

I work with individuals and couples who are thoughtful, capable, and successful in many areas of life — yet feel stuck in ways that don’t fully make sense. Inner tension and frustration persist despite insight, and relationship conflicts repeat. Part of you longs for closeness, while another pulls away. These experiences are not signs that something is wrong with you; they are often the result of ways you learned to adapt in response to earlier experiences. Therapy offers a space to understand these patterns with clarity and compassion.

Are you finding yourself uncertain in these polarizing times? Going through the motions, acting as if you have all the answers, but feel inside like chaos is brewing? This is called a 'functional freeze mode' or burnout described as excessive worry and a lack of desire to do things you once enjoyed. You are able to complete daily tasks yet feel numb and disconnected. I am familiar with the challenges that come with balancing career, marriage and family life. Although there are no "quick fixes," I specialize in working with adults who are ready to look at underlining causes to create healthier lifestyles.

My ideal client is someone who is self-aware enough to know they are struggling, even if they aren’t yet sure why or how to fix it. They may feel stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected—from others, from themselves, or from a sense of purpose. Often, they’ve tried to manage on their own for a long time but are now ready to seek support that is meaningful and sustainable.
They may be dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or major life transitions—such as relationship changes, career shifts, or identity exploration.

Although "pain" is something we would like to avoid, it is an inevitable part of life. But the positive aspect of painful experiences is that they can provide the opportunity to change... change that helps us grow and transform ourselves, bringing our lives a deeper sense of meaning. It is often very difficult to recognize these positive life changing opportunities while in the midst of profound pain or even after it subsides but that is where therapy can help. Collaborative work in therapy can facilitate awareness, promote healing, and illuminate paths for change leading to a more meaningful relationship with yourself and others...

Even the most accomplished leaders can feel stuck. Whether you’re navigating high-stakes decisions, burnout, team dynamics, or visibility in the public eye, leadership comes with pressure. In tech, medicine, and entertainment, the pace, scrutiny, and isolation can be intense. Addiction, compulsive sex, or infidelity may emerge and take a toll, as well as sexual difficulties, desire discrepancy, and intimacy challenges with your partner. If you’re a gay man, you may face added complexities—navigating identity, community belonging, monogamy vs. non-monogamy, or challenges related to the overuse of party drugs (chemsex).

I believe it is natural for humans to want to change how they feel. Unfortunately, how we seek this change can determine the difference between healthy vs. unhealthy behavior. My work is guiding you through an in-depth exploration of how early experiences have shaped your sense of self and how you manage feelings. My goal is to help you develop both a compassionate view of these experiences and a more secure sense of self. With a prior background in entertainment, I work with actors/artists/writers/entertainment professionals, grief/loss ( of people, time, dreams, pets), trauma, dual diagnosis and gay men navigating mid-life.

FAQ - About Therapy for Seniors
Is one ever too old for mental health therapy?
Individuals of all ages can benefit from mental health therapy. Indeed, older adults in particular may benefit from the social and psychological support a therapist can provide; the topics that older adults address in therapy may simply differ from those of younger clients. Seniors should seek out a therapist who has experience working with older individuals and who is well-versed in addressing common concerns among elderly individuals, such as depression, anxiety, loneliness, and physical mobility challenges.
How is counseling for seniors and the elderly different from counseling for other age groups?
In general, counseling offers an opportunity for clients to process difficult life events and develop coping skills they can use outside of the therapy session. Therapists who specialize in working with elderly clients generally have the same framework but may place a special emphasis on specific topics, such as caregiver relationships and reducing loneliness. They may be specially equipped to deal with certain physical conditions or facilitate discussion surrounding end-of-life topics. Counseling for the elderly may also place a greater emphasis on social work-type topics to ensure that geriatric clients have access to necessary resources, such as food, a safe home environment, and healthcare.
How can therapy improve the quality of life of aging individuals?
Therapy for aging adults can greatly improve quality of life by providing an opportunity for them to process difficult emotions related to end-of-life, navigate relational or caregiver challenges, and develop coping skills for common mental health conditions, like anxiety or depression. Subsequent reductions in negative emotions and mental health disorder symptoms can make day-to-day living much more manageable for aging adults and those that care for them. The ongoing relationship with a trusted therapist can also help seniors combat loneliness and provide a sense of structure for their routine.
What are the qualities to look for in therapists who see seniors?
Seniors counselors, like mental health counselors in general, should be kind, empathetic, skilled at listening, and knowledgeable about their particular area of expertise. Counselors specializing in working with the senior population should be very familiar with the aging process in general and the common conditions that the elderly can face, such as dementia, depression, loneliness, and/or physical illness. Many senior counselors are also well-equipped to help caregivers and families navigate the aging process of their loved ones, and they may draw on Interpersonal Therapy to help facilitate improved interactions between seniors and those that care for them.
