Social isolation and trouble connecting with others can be a debilitating mental health concerns that impact our well-being, relationships and daily living.

Social Isolation
Sehr Athar
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Social isolation affects more of us than we realize; it's a collective experience that we don't talk about enough, and that has been exacerbated due to the pandemic. Social isolation can also affect those of us who experience intersecting marginalized identities, whether we're from the BIPOC or 2SLGBTQ+ communities, and we've had to nagivate system oppressions our entire lives. Whether you're a student at university, an elder in the community, or someone who has recently arrived to Ontario from another place, we can work together to process the impact systems of oppression have had on our lives, work to connect ourselves in self compassionate way, and identify strategies to help us to feel part of the collective again. We'll develop a plan together and actively pursue tasks in between sessions to address these issues.

Maria Christopoulos
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., M.Sc., RP
Social isolation can lead to feelings of depression and anxiety, causing increased negative ruminations and avoidance of family and friends. Therapeutic interventions can work to identify negative patterns of behaviour and build positive thoughts to engage with others comfortably.

Sarah Elizabeth McMillan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MA, MSW, RSW
Mental health support for physical illness, pain and uncertainty. Dealing with ongoing pain, physical discomfort and fatigue, whether stemming from an illness, disability or injury, can be a lonely experience. We may struggle to plan our daily activities, not knowing how we will feel at any given moment and fulfilling long term goals may feel out of reach. Because pain is often invisible and subjective, people in our lives (including healthcare providers!) may not understand what we’re going through. Our lives can start to feel very restrictive and small as the activities we used to enjoy or did easily are increasingly difficult. Much of our focus goes to seeking treatments and strategies to get rid of the pain yet relief tends to be temporary and it's hard to imagine any other option.

Social Isolation
JP Robichaud
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Social Isolation experiences are more common now than they've ever been. The Pandemic has resulted in a significant amount of (in many ways) non-consensual social isolation. For some people, the distance from friends and family has resulted in a great deal of unhappiness, uncertainty, and depression. For others, who experienced social isolation even before the pandemic, finding a way to connection has always been challenging. We can talk about why that is, how it affects you, and what choices you might have to move through these experiences.

Jennifer Ritchie Psychotherapy Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, CYW
*Welcoming new clients for immediate booking* What does feeling 'connected' mean to you? Together, let's explore how loneliness affects you and create a plan for getting you back on your path to connection today. Perhaps you're feeling isolated after moving countries or after a relationship breakdown, or you're no longer feeling close with your partner, family, or your friends. Perhaps you are part of a group, but never really feel 'part' of that group. Or maybe you are finding that your role as a new parent or caregiver is more isolating than you ever imagined. Social interaction is a part of life and it's human nature to crave companionship and connection. If you're feeling lonely and isolated or feel like you have no one to talk to, I am here for you. I can help.

Social Isolation
Clare Karasik
Registered Social Worker, MSW, BSW, RSW
We may feel lonely when we don't have enough connection with others or when we don't have the kind of connection we need. We may experience isolation due to challenges related to trauma, changes in life, health/illness, self-esteem, anxiety, beliefs that keep us separate, life experiences that created distance, or physical distance. I work to provide a safe point of connection as we explore how isolation impacts your emotional experience, identity, and relationship with yourself. Together, we can explore ways in which you can experience and feel a deeper sense of connection to others.
