Social Isolation
Nina Hopmeier
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
Since we are by nature social beings, isolation from society can create feelings of loss, helplessness, and loneliness. Reasons for social isolation vary from person to person. In working together, we will explore what factors have lead to social isolation and how your current lifestyle may prevent you from creating a rich and fulfilling life. A fundamental part of therapy is also exploring the factors that maintain the social isolation. The therapy models that I apply largely depend on the unique history and relationship that the client has with social isolation. If social isolation occurs due to avoiding anxiety, I would primarily work with the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) model and with the Emotion Focused Therapy model (EFT) in order to change your relationship to the uncomfortable feelings maintaining the isolation. If isolation occurs due to debilitating thoughts that create feelings of hopelessness and insecurity I would work with the Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) model in order to help you challenge thoughts that prevent you from living the life that you want. If you are somebody who isolates socially I would be happy to work with you and devise a treatment plan that aligns with your unique needs.

Melissa MacNeill
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC, MACP
As humans we are wired to be connected, and to know that we can rely on important others for safety and comfort. When we reach for others in times of fear and uncertainty, their responsiveness, care and attention is soothing and helps to regulate our distress. We don't outgrow our need to feel loved, cared for, and held. The Covid-19 pandemic has only exacerbated the loneliness that so many were already feeling. I'll come along side to help you begin to reconnect and reestablish important relationships in ways that can lead to increased comfort, care, and love in your relationships.
