One word. Pandemic. It is rattling us to our core as we live with, oftentimes, paralyzing anxiety about the future of the unknown. We don't deal well with so much uncertainty, and having someone to talk through it with can be very comforting, humanizing and help reduce the isolation. Also, you need sun on your skin and regular soothing and uplifting activities.

Hypnotherapist, C.Ht
We have been a world of isolated peoples and now that many areas of this great planet are starting to open and see the world again. Having been required to isolate has created a sense of desire to socialize and it can manifest as a phobia. You are not necessarily feeling lonely as much as just an inner isolation and being around people can be a little scary. Contact me - Let's chat about this.

Loneliness is a much more common experience than most realize. Statistics indicate three out of every 5 adults complain of loneliness. That is ALOT of loneliness! Here we are experiencing this phenomenon in our individual houses and cubicles at work. We find ourselves at home "doing social life" on our computers instead of in person. All of course amplified/aggravated since the pandemic. Lets develop some goals to reduce the loneliness in your life. Lets strategize the steps you may be willing to consider to change this experience!
