Participated in the Golden Future 50+ Expo with the Los Angeles County Psychological Association Community Outreach Committee and the Conscious Aging Special Interest Group. I spoke about “Improving Sleep Through Psychology and Lifestyle,” highlighting how mental health plays a crucial role in healthy aging.
As we age, prioritizing mental wellness including quality sleep, stress management, and positive lifestyle habits is essential for maintaining vitality and resilience. It’s inspiring to be part of a community dedicated to supporting the well-being of older adults.

I was deeply moved to attend Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services’ Alive Together event at UCLA, sponsored by Los Angeles County Psychological Association. It was a day full of powerful conversations and reflections on the importance of mental health care and the need for a collective commitment to eliminating stigma.
One of the key takeaways for me was the critical role we all play in supporting each other whether by asking for help when we need it or being there for someone who’s struggling. We’ve come a long way in raising awareness, but the stigma surrounding mental health still prevents so many people from reaching out for the help they need.
Being able to ask for help without fear of judgment is essential for healing. And just as important is being someone who is available to listen a listening ear can make all the difference for someone in need.
A special thank you to Lyn Morris, LMFT (CEO) for her leadership in pushing these important conversations forward.
