Social Isolation
Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
Social isolation can be the aftermath of multiple factors. Some peole struggle with being around others and in their attemt to avoid painful emotions and experiences, choose to keep contacts to a minimum. The reasons for interpersonal difficulties and the resulting avoidance of relationships can also be multifaceted, but in my experience almost aways link back to adveristies at various stages of a person's life (including their very early life).
Poverty, physical illness and disability and social exclusion are also often reasons for people to find themselves alone and isolated.
If you feel that this is an issue you are struggling with and would like to explore the reasons for it, please get in touch.

Social Isolation
Clair Ramsden
Counsellor/Therapist, (Dip.Couns)
Many of my clients became very isolated during the COVID-19 pandemic. They had difficulty getting back to social activities after lockdowns. Before the pandemic, many of them had problems with depression and social anxiety. Some of them also experienced new fears and anxieties due to the pandemic and the challenges they faced as a family.
I offer DBT, which is a type of psychological treatment for people with social anxiety and depression.

Julie Jenner
Counsellor/Therapist, BA(Hons), NCS Senior Accredited
We can create social isolation for ourselves for so many reasons. For example, if we have not had the experience of asking for help and getting it, we can lead ourselves to assume nobody will help, nobody will understand, and therefore we pull back to the safety of isolation where we believe we cannot be hurt. But this does hurt us. Whether we like it or not, us humans need other humans. Counselling can help you understand why you didn't get help previously when needed, or why others did not understand what you were asking for or needing. You can start to understand that not everyone can offer the same level of support and that it is ok to keep asking. You don't have to suffer and struggle alone. Reach out.
