Social Isolation
Natasha Wakefield, RP, Matatoa Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Human Development Counselling
Social isolation is one of the hardest situations to live through, and this pandemic has taxed almost everyone's sense of connection and belonging. Literally one of the harshest punishment we give inmates is isolating them from others. So, whether you are physically isolated or feel alone in a crowd, you are not alone. Working through the emotional trauma associated with loneliness and isolation can help. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy and Brene Brown's work to help you explore what blocks you from feeling connection, improve your self confidence, and take steps to reconnect.

Sarah Kaleem
Counsellor/Therapist, OT Reg. (Ont.), Psychotherapist
Do you feel low and disconnected from others? Do you feel like it takes a great effort to see others or carry on a conversation? Does it feel easier to stay at home, although you know that this may not be healthy for you? Has the pandemic impacted your ability to be more comfortable in social situations? Perhaps, you feel like relationships are difficult in general to maintain. You don't always have to feel this way. I am here to help. I have worked extensively with individuals that struggle with social isolation. We will work together to get at the root of the cause and move forward towards change. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), both treatments that can be helpful to address isolation. In CBT, we may focus on how your emotions are connected to what you may be thinking and how this impacts your behaviours. Sometimes, we may get stuck in a cycle of isolation. CBT will help break that cycle and allow you to become more aware of how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours are more important than you think. In IPT, we may consider your current relationships, communication styles, as well as relationship patterns to understand why you may be isolating yourself. Reach out for help so we can begin the journey for you to feel more connected.

Social isolation, social anxiety, depression, social interactions have been triggered and exaggerated during these times. Kids and adults both are struggling to cope with society's unknown information, lack of energy, lack of motivation, and mental stressors to cope with daily life and it comes with its own drawbacks like overthinking, panic attacks, lack of confidence, poor self-image, and much more. If you are struggling with stressors related to covid, society, and other social factors please reach out for help. I am one call, email, or text away.

Bridges Clinical Hypnotherapy Services
Hypnotherapist
The appearance of COVID-19 has exacerbated this issue. It's important to remember that while it's okay to feel sad, stressed, lonely or worried, everyone reacts differently and sometimes these issues take a while to go away. If you are experiencing these feelings, hypnosis is an effective way to reduce the effects of social isolation.
