About Us

At Total Life, we believe that aging is a journey that shouldn't be traveled alone. We are on a mission to revolutionize healthier aging by combating the silent epidemic of mental health issues and social isolation among the elderly. Our work is driven by a deep-seated commitment to making quality, affordable emotional support services easily accessible to a demographic that is too often overlooked in the digital health revolution.

We are a behavioral health company solely dedicated to the geriatric population. Our values are rooted in empathy, evidence-based care, and accessibility. We recognize that mental health in later life is deeply connected to a person’s community and support system. When you join Total Life, you aren't just joining a platform—you are joining a movement to ensure that every senior, and the family that surrounds them, has a partner in their mental health journey.

The Opportunity

Total Life is seeking a compassionate Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California. We understand that aging doesn't happen in a vacuum; it impacts the entire family unit. We are looking for clinicians who view mental health through a systemic lens and are passionate about helping elderly clients navigate changing roles with adult children, the weight of spousal loss, and the shifting dynamics of late-stage family life.

• Purpose-Driven Work: The opportunity to provide life-changing support to a population that truly needs and appreciates your specialized skills.

Your Role

• Systemic Clinical Care: Provide virtual therapy sessions focusing on relational health and the complexities of family systems in later life.
• Relational Support: Address profound issues of loneliness and isolation through a systemic therapeutic approach that reconnects seniors to their world.
• Navigating Transitions: Help seniors and their support networks manage the emotional toll of aging, cognitive decline, and intergenerational stressors.
• Evidence-Based Practice: Utilize psychotherapy and evidence-based approaches (CBT, DBT, and Family Systems) to improve outcomes for both the individual and their family unit.

Schedule

• Part-time hours - 10-25 hours.  We work around your schedule!
• Fully remote—work from the comfort of your home office while serving the state of California.

Total Life is committed to providing equal opportunities in employment and creating a workplace free from discrimination and harassment. We value a diverse and inclusive workplace where all employees, applicants, and clients are treated with respect and dignity.
