Welcome to Healthy Aging

​

Reaching out for support can feel like a big step, and finding the right therapist matters.

 

My name is Dr. Louise Barnett. I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist and my staff and I provide warm, compassionate therapy for adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, caregiver stress, chronic illness adjustment, life transitions, infertility, pregnancy loss, IVF, surrogacy and the emotional challenges that come with change. We can also help with life transitions such as empty nest and work with college students who are transitioning to a new phase of life learning how to be more independent and self reliant away from their home and family. I have been practicing for over 23 years and in the last six years my primary focus has been on helping adults going through mid to later stages of life. Many of our clients are managing the stress of aging, health concerns, retirement transitions, relationship challenges, loss, grief, trauma, medical concerns or procedures, cancer or simply feeling overwhelmed by life.

 

Our goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and genuinely cared for. Therapy should feel like a place where you can slow down, gain clarity, and move forward with greater confidence and peace.

​

Here at Healthy Aging we work with adults facing emotional stress related to aging, chronic health conditions, medical diagnoses, family responsibilities, burnout, and major life transitions. We also help individuals experiencing health anxiety, depression after hospitalization, caregiver exhaustion, the emotional weight of supporting others while trying to care for themselves as well as divorce in the later stages of life.

​

Our approach is thoughtful, collaborative, and personalized to your unique needs. I believe therapy should be both compassionate and practical—offering emotional support while helping you develop meaningful tools for lasting change.

​

Our Office is in Westlake Village California and we provide therapy in person for surrounding areas such as Agoura Hills, Thousand Oaks, Camarillo, Newbury Park, Calabasas as well as secure video telehealth therapy throughout California, allowing clients to receive support from the comfort, privacy, and convenience of home. This can be especially helpful for those balancing busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, health concerns, or simply preferring the ease of meeting from their own space.

​

We currently accept Original Medicare (Medicare Part B) and supplemental gap insurance or out of network on a cash basis and can help navigate insurance reimbursement depending on the plan. We  welcome adults seeking accessible, supportive care. Our goal is to get you in as soon as possible as we know life challenges can be overwhelming and many times require help or support sooner than later. 

​

You do not have to navigate difficult seasons alone.

​

Our staff of therapists would be honored to support you.
