Megan Anderson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Therapist & A Couch is a space rooted in the belief that every part of you belongs. Many people who walk through my door are navigating a sense of social isolation, especially since the COVID pandemic. These struggles often point to deeper questions about connection, safety, relational patterns, and identity, which refers to the ways we learn to be with others and with ourselves.
No matter the story someone arrives with, the diagnoses they may carry, or the identities they may hold, we begin with the core human experiences that connect us all — our wishes, fears, wounds, conflicts, patterns, walking contradictions...our messiness. Within these places live the quiet truths that shape who we are. Together, we gently sift through what’s been heavy so you can feel lighter, freer, and more whole.

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.

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. 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.

Together, we'll identify practical, personalized ways to expand your support system, strengthen existing relationships, and create a greater sense of belonging in your community and everyday life.

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.

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.
