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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
