Social Isolation
Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Social isolation can occur for a number of reasons with effects on people ranging from distressing to crippling. Following a thorough assessment, I apply one of several contemporary forms of psychodynamic or cognitive-behavior therapy to help people become more engaged with others.

Social Isolation
Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults overcome social isolation and build meaningful, fulfilling connections with others. Feelings of loneliness and disconnection can arise from anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, chronic health conditions, or past experiences of rejection and loss. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), interpersonal strategies, and mindfulness-based techniques, I help clients increase confidence in social situations, strengthen communication skills, address barriers to connection, and develop supportive relationships. My goal is to help clients cultivate a greater sense of belonging, improve emotional well-being, and create a more connected and satisfying life.

Social Isolation
Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for social isolation and related concerns, including loneliness, disconnection, difficulty forming or maintaining relationships, withdrawal from social contact, and feeling emotionally distant from others. Social isolation can significantly impact mental health, contributing to depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and a reduced sense of meaning, belonging, and connection.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to social isolation, helping clients understand the emotional, psychological, and relational factors that may be contributing to withdrawal or disconnection from others. For many individuals, social isolation is connected to past trauma, attachment wounds, rejection experiences, social anxiety, or long-standing beliefs about safety, trust, or self-worth in relationships.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to help clients process underlying emotional pain, reduce avoidance patterns, and rebuild the capacity for safe and meaningful connection with others. Therapy focuses on strengthening emotional resilience, improving self-awareness, and gently increasing comfort in relational and social environments.
Brad works collaboratively with clients to identify barriers to connection, explore past experiences that may have contributed to isolation, and develop practical, individualized steps toward rebuilding relationships and social engagement at a pace that feels safe and manageable.
Therapy is supportive, non-judgmental, and tailored to each client’s needs, with an emphasis on emotional safety, empowerment, and sustainable change. The goal is not forced social engagement, but helping clients reconnect with others in ways that feel authentic, manageable, and aligned with their personal comfort level.
Healing is possible. With the right support, clients can move beyond isolation, rebuild meaningful connections, and experience greater belonging, emotional well-being, and quality of life.

Social Isolation
Greg Welikson
Psychologist, PhD
When chronic stress, caregiving demands, or life changes take over, isolation is often the natural defense mechanism. You may find yourself pulling back from loved ones, checking out emotionally at home, or feeling a persistent wall between you and the rest of the world.
I offer a supportive, non-judgmental space to break through the cycle of emotional retreat. We focus on identifying the root causes of your withdrawal—whether it’s deep fatigue, fear of burdening others, or feeling misunderstood. You’ll learn practical emotional regulation tools to rebuild meaningful, energizing connections at your own pace without feeling overwhelmed.
