Chris Guthrey
Psychologist, PsyD
In my practice, I assist individuals experiencing isolation by integrating therapeutic approaches that promote acceptance of emotions and encourage engagement in meaningful social activities. We work to reduce avoidance behaviors and work towards goals aligned with their personal values. Additionally, by exploring past experiences and unconscious patterns, clients gain insight into the root causes of their isolation, enabling them to overcome the internal obstacles in the way of their goals.

Dr. Daniele Levy, Bay Area Cognitive Therapy
Psychologist, PhD, MBA
When working with clients who experience social isolation, I combine Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help them develop healthier social connections. Through CBT, we identify and challenge unhelpful beliefs that contribute to isolation. With ACT, we focus on accepting uncomfortable emotions while encouraging actions aligned with values, such as engaging in meaningful social activities. This combined approach helps clients build resilience, improve social skills, and create more fulfilling relationships.

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 I work with individuals who are feeling socially withdrawn or disconnected, using an integrative approach that considers emotional health, nervous system stress, and medical factors that may contribute to these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.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Social isolation often reflects both a longing for connection and a need for emotional protection. My work integrates psychoanalytic exploration and relational understanding to examine the internal conflicts that shape withdrawal and distance. This process supports renewed openness to relationship and belonging.

Feelings of loneliness and isolation can be deeply painful and often affect emotional well-being, self-esteem, and relationships. Sometimes isolation develops after difficult life experiences, relationship challenges, trauma, or repeated experiences of feeling misunderstood or disconnected. I help you explore the factors contributing to isolation, strengthen confidence, improve relationship skills, and build more meaningful and fulfilling connections with others.

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.

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.

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.

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,

Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
I work with both adults and adolescents on an individual basis. Individual psychotherapy helps clients deal with particular issues, symptoms, and stressors. My goal is to provide a safe, non judgmental space for you to explore who you are, how you relate to others, and what supports you on your journey to become your best self. I lean into, listen, understand, and enhance authentic expression. Together we create a collaborative process of transformation. What that means and what that looks like is different for everyone...
I offer evidence-based therapies from a curious, nonjudgmental philosophy. No matter where you have been, evidence-based therapies focus on changing the now. I strive to help my clients experience the world mindfully, and in accordance with their personal values. Through our work in cultivating an affirming, authentic, and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship, I provide support while we collaboratively deconstruct what is causing distress in your life and preventing you from being your most effective and authentic self. Individual therapy facilitates insight and growth, becoming more effective at actualizing your values, and building more authentic relationships with yourself and with others.
While there are many forms of therapy you can pursue, my expertise is in time-limited, evidence-based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (CBT), the Unified Protocol for emotional disorders, and third wave CBT such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness based interventions. (I do have experience in, and practice, an eclectic arrangement of other modalities as well-- when applicable or specifically requested.) We explore thoughts, beliefs, and understanding, while also prioritizing behavioral processes that focus on your contexts and the functions of how you relate to your internal experiences. CBT is designed to help individuals notice and shift their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in order to get relief from painful emotions such as anxiety and sadness.
Third wave interventions also promote well-being through developing coping skills, personal values, and metacognition that complement traditional CBT interventions. I provide flexible, customizable approaches that look different with each patient. I empower my clients to discover their strength, clarity, creativity, autonomy, resilience, motivation, and confidence in meeting whatever happens next. I provide individualized tools to use in everyday decision-making that will help those changes last. With these modalities I treat individuals who are impacted by depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship distress, burnout, divorce, loss, uncertainty, stigma, and other life experiences, diagnoses, and stressors. We explore the sources, experiences, and beliefs that impact how you relate with the world and implement change in your life. You are the expert on you, but are you your most effective and content self?
