Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Social isolation can occur for a number of reasons with effects on people ranging from distressing to crippling. Following a thorough assessment, I apply one of several contemporary forms of psychodynamic or cognitive-behavior therapy to help people become more engaged with others.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Feeling disconnected from others can be one of the most painful human experiences. Maybe you’re struggling to find meaningful relationships, or you feel like you don’t quite belong anywhere. Perhaps you've withdrawn due to past hurts, anxiety, or life circumstances, and now the idea of reconnecting feels overwhelming or even impossible. Loneliness can creep in slowly or hit all at once, leaving you feeling invisible, misunderstood, or unsure of how to reach out.
You don’t have to navigate this alone. Together, we’ll explore the barriers keeping you isolated—whether it’s fear, self-doubt, or uncertainty about where to start—and work toward creating connections that feel fulfilling and safe. Meaningful relationships aren’t just about having people around you; they’re about feeling truly seen and valued. You deserve that, and it’s never too late to take the first step toward connection.

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?

When we struggle mentally, emotionally, physically, or spiritually, we often withdraw. It’s important to examine and understand these irrational beliefs and patterns. All of these aspects can be rewired and transformed.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
Hhypnotherapy is considered a valuable tool for treating social isolation by addressing underlying causes like low self-esteem, anxiety, and negative thinking. It helps individuals break the cycle of loneliness, build confidence, and foster motivation to make social connections.Key aspects of how hypnotherapy treats social isolation include:Addressing Underlying Issues: Hypnotherapy helps identify and treats root causes of isolation, such as social anxiety, fear of judgment, or past traumatic experiences.Rewiring Thought Patterns: It assists in overcoming negative self-talk, boosting self-esteem, and encouraging a more positive self-image, which can make it easier to reach out to others.Building Social Confidence: Through visualization and mental rehearsal, sessions help patients feel more relaxed and confident in social situations.
Social isolation is undesirable for both physical and mental health. I have been helping individuals with this issue, treating them with Dicit hypnotherapy. All my clients with this issue are getting resilient in no time. It's your turn. Let me help you. Man cannot live alone. Let me train you to be social beyond compare.

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.

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.

Jennifer Masters
Life Coach, Ba Psychology, CF Thanatology, D Kessler – Grief Grief Coach Certif,M Devine – Grief Coach Certif
Grief can make social connection feel exhausting. Many grievers are already physically and emotionally drained from grief brain, poor sleep, racing thoughts, nightmares, grief overload, or the constant effort of getting through the day. When other people ask how they are, judge how long grief is lasting, offer unwanted advice, or expect them to “get back to normal,” it can feel easier to pull away.
I support adults who feel isolated, disconnected, or too tired to keep up with friends, family, hobbies, or social plans after a loss. I explain why this can happen in grief, why it makes sense, and why it is not a personal failure. I also offer practical tools to help clients manage exhaustion, soften isolation, set boundaries with others, and slowly reconnect with people, routines, and interests in a way that feels possible for them.

Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social isolation can happen slowly, especially after loss, stress, depression, anxiety, or a major change. We can explore what pulled you away and what makes connection feel difficult now. The goal is to rebuild support in a way that feels manageable and authentic, without forcing change faster than it can realistically happen.

It’s possible to be around people and still feel deeply alone. You might find yourself wanting connection but not knowing how to get there, or feeling like you don’t quite fit in.
If you’re experiencing that sense of isolation, you’re not alone. In therapy, we’ll work together to understand what’s making connection feel difficult, build your confidence, and help you feel more at ease being yourself so relationships can begin to feel more natural and genuine.
