Social Isolation
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.

Social Isolation
Dr. Jeannine Pablo
Psychologist, LP, LCMHC, MLADC
Prolonged social isolation can deeply impact emotional regulation, cognitive well-being, and overall quality of life. Utilizing evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and behavioral activation frameworks, I help individuals identify and dismantle the cognitive distortions—such as fear of rejection or hypervigilance to social threats—that maintain isolation loops. Our clinical work focuses on safely rebuilding social stamina, overcoming loneliness, and establishing structured, meaningful avenues for community reintegration.

Social Isolation
Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Social isolation and loneliness can become significant concerns in adulthood. Demanding schedules, remote work, relocation, life transitions, changing relationships, or limited opportunities to meet people can make connection difficult to establish or maintain. You may also feel lonely even when other people are present if your relationships do not provide the understanding, belonging, or closeness you need. Though social connection involves vulnerability and can bring uncertainty, rejection, disappointment, misunderstanding, or conflict, it is still important and still worthwhile. While those risks can make withdrawing or avoiding connection feel safer, isolation comes at a real cost.
Therapy can help you understand the practical, emotional, and relational barriers to connection in your life; identify the kinds of relationships and community you want; and take manageable steps toward building new connections or strengthening existing ones. Our work may also involve developing greater comfort with vulnerability, navigating conflict and boundaries, and responding to setbacks without giving up on connection.

Social Isolation
Annette Popernik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Feeling alone and being alone can be similar and different. Social isolation is painful even if we don't realize it. Leaving the house is hard. Getting out of your comfort zone can feel wrong. Doing what is unfamiliar can be anxiety provoking. And yet, when we are isolated, our hearts get lonely. Alone time isn't bad but being so far off from others in a consistent way often means there is something else going on. Being introverted or extroverted is not good or bad. They're just unique and different. Maybe your social isolation comes from where you live, life circumstances, an illness, depression, your schedule, or something else entirely. Let's unpack it together. We will go at your pace.
