About Sailor Health

Sailor Health is revolutionizing mental health care for older adults, addressing one of the fastest-growing and most underserved healthcare segments in America. With over 60 million seniors projected to represent nearly 25% of the population by 2030, we're facing a seismic shift in healthcare demand. Yet, today, millions of older adults remain isolated, underserved, and struggling with mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, loneliness, and life transitions without adequate support.

At Sailor Health, we envision a world where every senior enjoys seamless access to personalized, compassionate, and effective mental health care. We're building a comprehensive, tech-enabled behavioral health platform to deliver superior mental health care directly into seniors' homes. By partnering with Medicare and Medicare Advantage plans, we're making high-quality geriatric psychotherapy not just accessible – but affordable, scalable, and transformative.

Join us on our mission to redefine the golden years, enabling older adults across the nation to live happier and healthier lives. This isn't just a job—it's an opportunity to pioneer a movement in geriatric mental health and reshape the future of aging.
