About Us:

At Total Life, we’re on a mission to support healthier aging and address mental health challenges by making high-quality, affordable emotional support services accessible to all older adults.

• Represent Total Life in the community and serve as the local point of contact for clients, caregivers, and partners
• Collaborate with our virtual therapy team to ensure smooth transitions into ongoing care
• Maintain accurate and timely clinical documentation
• Participate in team meetings and contribute to improving our community-based programs
