Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
When you’re outwardly successful but internally disconnected, isolation becomes a lonely companion—even in crowded rooms or surrounded by colleagues. Perhaps you’re adept at appearing socially engaged, but deep down you feel unseen or profoundly alone. Dr. Jenny Shields supports driven professionals to gently explore the roots of their isolation through Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness-based techniques, and interpersonal therapy. With warmth and genuine understanding, she helps clients rebuild meaningful connections, move through barriers to intimacy, and regain a sense of authentic belonging—both personally and professionally.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Isolation is rarely chosen. It accumulates — one declined invitation, one more evening alone, one more year of the gap between you and other people widening until crossing it feels impossible. The loneliness is real, but so is the protection: being alone means no one can see you, which means no one can find you lacking. The work begins by taking the isolation seriously — not as a problem to be solved by forcing yourself into the world, but as something that made sense once and may no longer be serving the life you actually want.

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.
