Alistair Highet
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LP, NCPsyA
We need other people to tell us who we are. We discover the value of ourselves in relation to those who value us. When we get isolated, we can literally get lost. In therapy you can perhaps find your core self again. I can help you ease the distortions that follow social isolation, help you to re-discover your warmth, and help you open a door to more fulfilling relationships.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who feel socially isolated or disconnected, even though they want closer relationships. Many of the people I see are thoughtful, highly self‑aware, and sometimes feel out of sync with typical social norms. From the outside, it can look like you are doing fine; inside, you may feel alone, peripheral, or hard to really know. You may enjoy connection once it is happening, but getting there can feel complicated, effortful, or uncertain.
Social isolation can look like drifting away from friends without meaning to; keeping conversations on the surface because a deeper connection feels risky or confusing; or feeling invisible or on the edges in social settings. It can also look like wanting closeness but not knowing how to move toward it, feeling disconnected from your own needs or preferences, or carrying a sense that other people have an ease with relationships that you somehow missed. You may often feel judged, misread, or like people do not really understand you, which can make it even harder to risk reaching out.
I work extensively with adults navigating this kind of disconnection and know how heavy it can feel when most of your life is lived on your own. For many people, there can also be a long history of masking, camouflaging, or adapting to others that leaves you unsure what you actually want. Over time, this can lead to loneliness, self‑doubt, or a sense of being on the outside of your own life.
In our work together, we look closely at how these patterns developed and what they have been protecting you from. We make room for the part of you that has learned to be fiercely self‑sufficient, to rely on yourself because that has felt safest. From there, we explore small, meaningful steps toward connection that feel authentic and sustainable for you, with relationships where you can feel met and genuinely seen. You don’t have to manage this alone. This kind of work is central to my practice, and I approach it with a great deal of care.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
It’s possible to be around people and still feel deeply alone. You might find yourself wanting connection but not knowing how to get there, or feeling like you don’t quite fit in.
If you’re experiencing that sense of isolation, you’re not alone. In therapy, we’ll work together to understand what’s making connection feel difficult, build your confidence, and help you feel more at ease being yourself so relationships can begin to feel more natural and genuine.
