Social Isolation
Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Support for experiences of loneliness, disconnection, belonging, and the challenges of finding relationships, communities, and environments where you can show up authentically. This work is particularly relevant for neurodivergent, disabled, chronically ill, highly sensitive, LGBTQIA2S+, BIPOC, multicultural, and otherwise marginalized individuals who may have spent years masking, adapting, code-switching, self-monitoring, or feeling unseen, misunderstood, or out of place.
Social isolation is not always about being physically alone. It can also arise from feeling disconnected while surrounded by others, feeling unable to fully express who you are, struggling to find people who share your experiences, or carrying the exhaustion of constantly adapting yourself in order to belong. For many people, experiences of rejection, bullying, exclusion, trauma, discrimination, chronic illness, disability, neurodivergence, or identity-based marginalization can shape not only relationships, but also the nervous system, self-concept, and expectations of connection itself.
This work explores how experiences of belonging, exclusion, attachment, culture, family systems, identity, trauma, and community have influenced the ways you relate to yourself and others. Particular attention is given to the ways masking, people-pleasing, hypervigilance, self-silencing, rejection sensitivity, and other adaptive strategies may have developed in response to environments where authenticity did not always feel safe or welcomed.
My approach integrates mindfulness, somatic therapy, EMDR, parts work, expressive arts, neuropsychotherapy, attachment-focused approaches, and liberation-oriented healing. Rather than focusing on becoming someone different in order to fit in, therapy supports reconnecting with your own voice, values, needs, interests, and authentic ways of relating. Through greater self-understanding, nervous system awareness, and self-trust, space is created for more meaningful connection with yourself, others, and communities where your full humanity can be seen, supported, and understood.
The goal is not simply to reduce loneliness, but to cultivate a deeper sense of belonging—to yourself, to your relationships, to your communities, and to the parts of who you are that may have been hidden, minimized, or left behind in the pursuit of acceptance.

Social Isolation
Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
One word. Pandemic. For many of us it rattled us to our core, oftentimes leading to paralyzing anxiety about an unknown future. Humans don't deal well with so much uncertainty, and having someone to talk through it with can be very comforting, humanizing and help reduce the isolation. Also, you need sun on your skin and regular soothing and uplifting activities to break the isolation/depression cycle.

Social Isolation
Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Isolation can be both a protective response and a painful experience. If connection has felt unsafe or disappointing, withdrawing may have been your nervous system's way of coping. Together, we explore what makes connection feel difficult while gradually building capacity for meaningful, authentic relationships.

Social Isolation
David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
Humans are wired for connection and we live increasingly in a world that makes it harder to connect with others, despite technology. My acceptance and commitment therapy approach can support you in understanding why you might not be feeling social, including uncovering how you may be protecting yourself. These then give us the motivation to tolerate the discomfort of moving towards things that are important to us.

Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
Especially since the pandemic of 2020, many of us have experienced the profound feelings of disconnection and surreality of social isolation. Others among us are more comfortable at a social distance, at least most of the time. Distancing and isolation may help you to manage anxiety about potential encounters that you wish to avoid, or about which you do not feel confident. You may not have the means to get out and about. For whatever reason you may be isolated, there is still that yearning for connection. Through the relationship that can be developed with a skilled psychotherapist,

Kim Salinger
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, MBA, MSN, PMHNP, FNP, AHN
Social isolation can lead to feelings of loneliness, sadness, or disconnection, even when someone appears to be functioning well on the outside. I work with individuals who are feeling socially withdrawn or disconnected, using an integrative approach that considers emotional health, nervous system stress, and medical factors that may contribute to these experiences. Visits focus on support, insight, and psychiatric care when appropriate, helping patients rebuild a sense of connection, stability, and emotional well-being.

Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Feelings of loneliness or disconnection often develop alongside anxiety, trauma, or long-standing relational patterns. Therapy can help uncover the barriers that make connection feel difficult, including fear of rejection, past relational wounds, or chronic self-protection. Together we work toward building relationships that feel more authentic, reciprocal, and emotionally safe.

Ben Leddick
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
It can be difficult to take the first step in connecting with others around you. While alone, you can be fully in control but this lacks the fundamental part of life: relationship. Overcoming social isolation takes the first step of reaching out to address the patterns that have kept you alone and continue the courageous step of reconnecting with those around you.
