Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Support for experiences of loneliness, disconnection, belonging, and the challenges of finding relationships, communities, and environments where you can show up authentically. This work is particularly relevant for neurodivergent, disabled, chronically ill, highly sensitive, LGBTQIA2S+, BIPOC, multicultural, and otherwise marginalized individuals who may have spent years masking, adapting, code-switching, self-monitoring, or feeling unseen, misunderstood, or out of place.
Social isolation is not always about being physically alone. It can also arise from feeling disconnected while surrounded by others, feeling unable to fully express who you are, struggling to find people who share your experiences, or carrying the exhaustion of constantly adapting yourself in order to belong. For many people, experiences of rejection, bullying, exclusion, trauma, discrimination, chronic illness, disability, neurodivergence, or identity-based marginalization can shape not only relationships, but also the nervous system, self-concept, and expectations of connection itself.
This work explores how experiences of belonging, exclusion, attachment, culture, family systems, identity, trauma, and community have influenced the ways you relate to yourself and others. Particular attention is given to the ways masking, people-pleasing, hypervigilance, self-silencing, rejection sensitivity, and other adaptive strategies may have developed in response to environments where authenticity did not always feel safe or welcomed.
My approach integrates mindfulness, somatic therapy, EMDR, parts work, expressive arts, neuropsychotherapy, attachment-focused approaches, and liberation-oriented healing. Rather than focusing on becoming someone different in order to fit in, therapy supports reconnecting with your own voice, values, needs, interests, and authentic ways of relating. Through greater self-understanding, nervous system awareness, and self-trust, space is created for more meaningful connection with yourself, others, and communities where your full humanity can be seen, supported, and understood.
The goal is not simply to reduce loneliness, but to cultivate a deeper sense of belonging—to yourself, to your relationships, to your communities, and to the parts of who you are that may have been hidden, minimized, or left behind in the pursuit of acceptance.

Lisa Abdilova Andresen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Feeling emotionally lonely? It takes time to find your people, especially when you're new to the area, work long hours, got bullied, or are dealing with a break-up. It's okay to turtle sometimes. You can be a lone wolf — and find a wolf pack. If you have difficulties trusting others or being truly open, then of course, friendships would be tricky. I can help you feel genuinely connected with at least one other person (besides me! :) ).

Miriam Adrianowicz
Psychologist, PsyD
Today, especially post-pandemic, we are in a world where we feel more and more isolated. This is why I offer in-person psychotherapy as opposed to Telehealth sessions. The power of connection is incredibly healing. Ideally, a therapeutic relationship that feels safe, welcoming, and secure, is a way to initiate reconnecting with the world. We can explore reasons why you may feel isolated and behaviors that may be perpetuating it, and work together to help you regain a sense of belonging.

Jeremy Rhoades
Counselor/Therapist, MFT, LPCC, Harm Reduction Specialist, Psychedelic Integration Consultant
Social isolation is not always a bad thing. If you enjoy solitude, I am not here to tell you that you need a roommate. However, if you are looking to connect with others, we can discover what kinds of people you want to attract, and what kinds of boundaries you want to set in relationships.

Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Feelings of loneliness or disconnection often develop alongside anxiety, trauma, or long-standing relational patterns. Therapy can help uncover the barriers that make connection feel difficult, including fear of rejection, past relational wounds, or chronic self-protection. Together we work toward building relationships that feel more authentic, reciprocal, and emotionally safe.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I help people struggling with social isolation gently reconnect with themselves and with others in ways that feel safe, authentic, and manageable. Together, we explore the experiences, fears, and old patterns that have made connection feel out of reach, while building small, meaningful pathways back to belonging. My approach is steady, compassionate, and relational—supporting you as you move toward a life with more connection, ease, and support.

Richmond is a Contra Costa Bay Area city with a history defined by its role as a major World War II shipbuilding hub and by the environmental and community health impacts of the Chevron oil refinery, which has operated there for over a century and whose explosions and toxic releases—most notably in 2012—have created a legacy of environmental trauma and justified community distrust of institutions that shapes how healthcare and mental health services are received. The city has a predominantly Black and Latino population that has faced significant economic challenges, high crime rates in some areas, and persistent underinvestment, creating a mental health landscape marked by community resilience alongside significant unmet need. Contra Costa Health Services provides mental health services, and community health organizations supplement public resources. Common therapy concerns include environmental and community trauma, racial identity and systemic stress, economic anxiety, and the particular challenges of building mental health trust in a community that has experienced institutional harm.
