Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
Whether you have experienced a prolonged season of loneliness, feel disconnected from the people around you, or find it difficult to step back into the world, social isolation can take a profound toll on your mental health. Anne provides a exceptionally warm, welcoming, and collaborative space designed to help you safely bridge that gap. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, she partners with individuals to explore the emotional barriers, anxiety, and low self-esteem that keep them feeling cut off, helping them gently rebuild a sense of belonging and community.
Anne’s integrative approach is uniquely gentle for those navigating isolation. Recognizing that jumping straight back into heavy social interaction or intensive talk therapy can feel overwhelming, she blends evidence-based psychotherapy with Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and creative art therapy. These tools provide a low-pressure, expressive outlet to process feelings of loneliness and regulate an anxious nervous system. Whether your isolation stems from a major life transition, trauma, deep grief, professional burnout, a chronic medical diagnosis, or the isolating landscape of early parenthood, Anne is dedicated to helping you move from survival to meaningful connection at your own pace.

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.

Juliette Grantham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I'm Juliette Grantham, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist specializing in social isolation and loneliness.
Isolation is not always a matter of circumstance. Many people who reach me are lonely in the presence of others, or have withdrawn gradually enough that they cannot identify when it began. Invitations go unanswered because answering feels like too much, friendships thin out without a rupture, and the longer it continues the harder reaching out becomes. Loneliness inside a marriage or a full household is its own particular version of this.
I work psychoanalytically, which means we look at what has made connection feel unavailable rather than only at how to arrange more of it. Withdrawal carries an unconscious logic worth understanding, often protecting against a disappointment or rejection you have reason to expect. In sessions we trace where that expectation came from, and the therapy relationship itself becomes somewhere to notice how you manage being known.
If you have been more alone than you want to be, I would be glad to talk.

MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Hypnotherapy can help individuals experiencing social isolation by addressing underlying feelings of loneliness, fear, or low self-esteem that may contribute to withdrawal from others. Through guided relaxation and positive suggestion, hypnotherapists support clients in building confidence, reducing self-doubt, and enhancing motivation to connect with others. This process can help reframe negative beliefs about social interaction, foster a greater sense of belonging, and encourage more active participation in community and social activities. As part of an integrated approach, hypnotherapy offers a gentle and supportive pathway for those seeking to overcome isolation and build meaningful connections.
