Read Reynold’s full story

Dear Total Life. Thank you for your wonderful service of therapy for the elderly. I had been searching for some time for therapy services for the elderly. I kept running into roadblocks until I ran across Total Life on the internet.

I had been an MSW/LCSW for 54 years and a BSW for 11 years before that. Yes, I will be 87 a few days from now. I just fully retired on March 31, 2026. I found myself drifting in the middle of Lake Michigan for some months until I found Total Life and realized there was a group of therapists reaching out to Medicare patients.

I was really fortunate I had not found someone before Total Life. I have been working on Erikson’s last stage of life and addressing the new life situations that “old age” has brought knocking. I find this a more pleasant experience compared to earlier therapy addressing the traumas and problems of growing up, plus the stress of relationships, children, addiction, financial, education and work.

A giant “THUMBS UP” for Total Life and Tim (Dr. Calvin).

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

What does Total Life do?+
Total Life provides mental health therapy and counseling online or by phone for older adults. Our mission is to bring together effective mental health programs and services to older adults across the USA.
What is the cost of Total Life's services?+
All of Total Life's programs are covered by Original Medicare, most Medicare Advantage plans, and many PPOs. The great news is that if you have Original Medicare and a supplemental plan then therapy can often be entirely covered! If you have a Medicare Advantage plan, there may be a small copay.
Does Medicare cover mental health?+
Yes! Medicare covers individual therapy, group therapy, and other forms of mental health care. And, online appointments are covered. Most Medicare-eligible people do not know that online therapists accept Medicare, and we hope to reach this audience to inform them of their benefits.
Who are your therapists?+
Our provider team is made up of experienced, caring therapists. All of our therapists are licensed in the state in which you receive care and have a high level of education (master's degrees and above).
