Social Isolation
Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Social isolation is rarely a logistics problem. People who feel deeply isolated often have people around them. The isolation lives in the gap between being seen and feeling truly known, a gap that is usually held by subconscious beliefs like "I do not belong", "people will leave" or "the real me is not safe to show". RTT works directly with those beliefs. Once the underlying pattern updates, reaching out tends to feel less effortful and connection starts to land where it used to bounce off. I work online via Zoom with adults around the world and offer a free 20-minute discovery call as the first step.

Social Isolation
Dr. Mike Lee
Psychologist
I help individuals address social isolation and the loneliness that often accompanies it, easing distress while rebuilding pathways to connection. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we make sense of what is happening at and beneath the surface—protective distance, discouragement, and meanings carried from past experience—and turn that understanding into workable steps. The aim is durable change—less withdrawal and resignation, more ease, choice, and a felt sense of belonging.

Social Isolation
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who feel socially isolated or disconnected, even though they want closer relationships. Many of the people I see are thoughtful, highly self‑aware, and sometimes feel out of sync with typical social norms. From the outside, it can look like you are doing fine; inside, you may feel alone, peripheral, or hard to really know. You may enjoy connection once it is happening, but getting there can feel complicated, effortful, or uncertain.
Social isolation can look like drifting away from friends without meaning to; keeping conversations on the surface because a deeper connection feels risky or confusing; or feeling invisible or on the edges in social settings. It can also look like wanting closeness but not knowing how to move toward it, feeling disconnected from your own needs or preferences, or carrying a sense that other people have an ease with relationships that you somehow missed. You may often feel judged, misread, or like people do not really understand you, which can make it even harder to risk reaching out.
I work extensively with adults navigating this kind of disconnection and know how heavy it can feel when most of your life is lived on your own. For many people, there can also be a long history of masking, camouflaging, or adapting to others that leaves you unsure what you actually want. Over time, this can lead to loneliness, self‑doubt, or a sense of being on the outside of your own life.
In our work together, we look closely at how these patterns developed and what they have been protecting you from. We make room for the part of you that has learned to be fiercely self‑sufficient, to rely on yourself because that has felt safest. From there, we explore small, meaningful steps toward connection that feel authentic and sustainable for you, with relationships where you can feel met and genuinely seen. You don’t have to manage this alone. This kind of work is central to my practice, and I approach it with a great deal of care.

Social Isolation
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?

Social Isolation
Alistair Highet
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LP, NCPsyA
We need other people to tell us who we are. We discover the value of ourselves in relation to those who value us. When we get isolated, we can literally get lost. In therapy you can perhaps find your core self again. I can help you ease the distortions that follow social isolation, help you to re-discover your warmth, and help you open a door to more fulfilling relationships.

Social Isolation
Molly Toomey
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Social isolation is different from simply being alone or lonely. Whether a conscious decision or an unconscious reaction or survival strategy, social isolation can have devastating consequences—humans are built for connection! My relational approach to therapy is often a great fit for folks who struggle with social isolation, avoidance, and perpetual feelings of disconnect or aloneness and are interested in exploring a different way of being.

Social Isolation
Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, 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.

Social Isolation
Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for social isolation and related concerns, including loneliness, disconnection, difficulty forming or maintaining relationships, withdrawal from social contact, and feeling emotionally distant from others. Social isolation can significantly impact mental health, contributing to depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and a reduced sense of meaning, belonging, and connection.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to social isolation, helping clients understand the emotional, psychological, and relational factors that may be contributing to withdrawal or disconnection from others. For many individuals, social isolation is connected to past trauma, attachment wounds, rejection experiences, social anxiety, or long-standing beliefs about safety, trust, or self-worth in relationships.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to help clients process underlying emotional pain, reduce avoidance patterns, and rebuild the capacity for safe and meaningful connection with others. Therapy focuses on strengthening emotional resilience, improving self-awareness, and gently increasing comfort in relational and social environments.
Brad works collaboratively with clients to identify barriers to connection, explore past experiences that may have contributed to isolation, and develop practical, individualized steps toward rebuilding relationships and social engagement at a pace that feels safe and manageable.
Therapy is supportive, non-judgmental, and tailored to each client’s needs, with an emphasis on emotional safety, empowerment, and sustainable change. The goal is not forced social engagement, but helping clients reconnect with others in ways that feel authentic, manageable, and aligned with their personal comfort level.
Healing is possible. With the right support, clients can move beyond isolation, rebuild meaningful connections, and experience greater belonging, emotional well-being, and quality of life.

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.

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.
