Dr. Cara Bussell, PhD, LLC

Social isolation can affect emotional well-being, self-esteem, and overall quality of life. I work with adults who feel lonely, disconnected, or unsure how to re-engage with others. Whether you have experienced recent life changes, anxiety, loss, or long-standing patterns of withdrawal, therapy can provide a supportive space to explore your experience and move toward more meaningful connection. I use evidence-based approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), psychoeducation, and mindfulness-informed strategies to help clients reconnect with others and with themselves. If you are feeling isolated or stuck, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation.

Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
Whether you have experienced a prolonged season of loneliness, feel disconnected from the people around you, or find it difficult to step back into the world, social isolation can take a profound toll on your mental health. Anne provides a exceptionally warm, welcoming, and collaborative space designed to help you safely bridge that gap. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, she partners with individuals to explore the emotional barriers, anxiety, and low self-esteem that keep them feeling cut off, helping them gently rebuild a sense of belonging and community.
Anne’s integrative approach is uniquely gentle for those navigating isolation. Recognizing that jumping straight back into heavy social interaction or intensive talk therapy can feel overwhelming, she blends evidence-based psychotherapy with Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and creative art therapy. These tools provide a low-pressure, expressive outlet to process feelings of loneliness and regulate an anxious nervous system. Whether your isolation stems from a major life transition, trauma, deep grief, professional burnout, a chronic medical diagnosis, or the isolating landscape of early parenthood, Anne is dedicated to helping you move from survival to meaningful connection at your own pace.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Isolation may feel protective but often deepens loneliness and shame. I use IFS, attachment work, and integrative approaches to help clients explore the parts that fear connection and slowly build safety in relationships. Somatic and mindfulness practices support regulation in social settings. My diagnostic expertise clarifies overlap with depression, trauma, or personality disorders, and I work with prescribers when needed.

Annette Popernik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Feeling alone and being alone can be similar and different. Social isolation is painful even if we don't realize it. Leaving the house is hard. Getting out of your comfort zone can feel wrong. Doing what is unfamiliar can be anxiety provoking. And yet, when we are isolated, our hearts get lonely. Alone time isn't bad but being so far off from others in a consistent way often means there is something else going on. Being introverted or extroverted is not good or bad. They're just unique and different. Maybe your social isolation comes from where you live, life circumstances, an illness, depression, your schedule, or something else entirely. Let's unpack it together. We will go at your pace.

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.

Dr. Jeannine Pablo
Psychologist, LP, LCMHC, MLADC
Prolonged social isolation can deeply impact emotional regulation, cognitive well-being, and overall quality of life. Utilizing evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and behavioral activation frameworks, I help individuals identify and dismantle the cognitive distortions—such as fear of rejection or hypervigilance to social threats—that maintain isolation loops. Our clinical work focuses on safely rebuilding social stamina, overcoming loneliness, and establishing structured, meaningful avenues for community reintegration.
