Social Isolation
Dr. Nicole Parkes
Psychologist, PsyD
I offer a compassionate and understanding approach to those experiencing social isolation. I recognize the deep sense of solitude and disconnection that can envelop your world, leaving you feeling as though you're on the periphery of life’s tapestry. With warmth and empathy, I journey with you to explore the underlying emotions and circumstances that contribute to this sense of isolation. Our work together is focused on rebuilding connections — with yourself and others — and rediscovering the joy and fulfillment of meaningful relationships. It’s a pathway towards re-engaging with the world, not just physically, but with a heart open to the richness of shared human experiences.

Social Isolation
Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
Wow, post COVID there is a lot of social isolation. Some of it may be fear of infection, but most of it is just because we lost our routine social activities and the friends we used to see all the time. I can help you figure out how to purposely find good matching friends who have similar values, are like-minded, and who enjoy doing the things you like to do. When anxiety sets in I can help you manage that so you can still live your best life. I have helped many people develop new social networks, whether because of relocation. change in life circumstance, or just because they outgrew their old social network. It's scary but so worth it when you find your tribe.
