Social Isolation
Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
Wow, post COVID there is a lot of social isolation. Some of it may be fear of infection, but most of it is just because we lost our routine social activities and the friends we used to see all the time. I can help you figure out how to purposely find good matching friends who have similar values, are like-minded, and who enjoy doing the things you like to do. When anxiety sets in I can help you manage that so you can still live your best life. I have helped many people develop new social networks, whether because of relocation. change in life circumstance, or just because they outgrew their old social network. It's scary but so worth it when you find your tribe.

Social Isolation
Dr. Jennifer McManus
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist, PLLC
Does this sound familiar? You want to feel calm and confident in social situations, but instead you are so afraid that you will look stupid or be rejected that you have started avoiding spending time with others altogether. It has been hard for you to manage this level of social isolation on your own. Each day it becomes more difficult to focus on anything other than those worst-case scenarios that your mind so quickly creates. Life doesn’t have to go on this way. Hi, I’m Dr. Jennifer McManus, and I help women find relief from social isolation. I can help you, too. Online psychotherapy is particularly helpful in the early stages of treatment for social isolation. It is my mission to provide scientifically informed psychotherapy without sacrificing compassion and genuine concern.
