San Diego office and Online in California.
Modern, effective therapy for Gay Men 50 and better in San Diego.
Something doesn't feel right; a quiet but constant unease lingers. And, you think it might be time to get some help with the problem.
As a gay man aged 50 or better, you might expect that by now, you’d have your life neatly arranged—the pieces fitting together harmoniously. Yet, deep down, things just don’t feel right.
You might notice depression creeping into your thoughts.
Anxiety can wrap around you like a tight cloak, making even simple moments feel overwhelming.
Maybe it’s as if the ghosts of your past—memories and struggles you thought had faded—are coming back.
Perhaps lingering feelings from the HIV/AIDS pandemic may still be on your mind.
You might be relying on alcohol or other substances more than what's healthy, and you secretly recognize that it's time to change direction.
Maybe your relationship is experiencing issues, and you could use some guidance to sort things out.
You need to be able to talk — not just talk, but be open — and share what's truly happening with someone who understands, in a private, confidential space.
Your friends are great, but sometimes you might feel like a new, unbiased perspective could really help.
I am Bob Basque, LCSW, and I use modern, effective methods that have helped many people find their way again.
Let’s work together to get you back on the right path!

I am a committed, encouraging, and sensible therapist who can help you get your life back on track. My practice is dedicated to helping gay men, 50 and better, with effective, compassionate therapy.
What makes me different is that I listen carefully and read between the lines, uncovering what might be happening beneath the surface. Together, we will figure it out.
Being a therapist is an honor. I love guiding people to figure things out and seeing them finally get their desired life back.
