Christina Song
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
I work with individuals experiencing social isolation from a trauma-informed, strengths-based perspective. Feeling disconnected can arise from life transitions, mental health challenges, systemic barriers, or past relational trauma, and it often affects both emotional and physical well-being. In therapy, we explore the factors contributing to isolation, the impact on your sense of self, and the patterns that may keep you disconnected.
Our work focuses on building meaningful connection, fostering self-compassion, and developing strategies to navigate social environments in ways that feel safe and authentic. Therapy becomes a space to reconnect with yourself and others, strengthen relational skills, and cultivate sustainable ways of belonging that honor your needs, boundaries, and values.

Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Social isolation can happen slowly, especially after loss, stress, depression, anxiety, or a major change. We can explore what pulled you away and what makes connection feel difficult now. The goal is to rebuild support in a way that feels manageable and authentic, without forcing change faster than it can realistically happen.

Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Isolation is rarely just introversion. It's often a protection strategy — a way of avoiding rejection, judgment, or the vulnerability of being known and still left. At Simple Empathy we work with the parts of you that have decided connection is too risky, and we get honest about what experiences taught you that. This isn't about forcing you into social situations. It's about understanding the wall, who built it, and whether it's still keeping you safe or just keeping you alone.

Columbia is home to the University of Missouri, the flagship state university, as well as several other colleges, giving it a pronounced college-town character and a mental health landscape significantly shaped by the needs of a large and diverse student population navigating academic pressure, identity, and the transition to adulthood. The MU School of Health Professions and Missouri Psychiatric Center contribute to the city's mental health professional resources, and a well-developed private therapy sector serves both the university community and permanent residents. The city has a generally progressive and intellectually engaged culture with a positive attitude toward therapy, and LGBTQ+ affirmative care is more accessible here than in many other parts of Missouri. Common therapy concerns include student mental health, academic and identity stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and the particular experiences of a university community navigating complex social terrain in a politically divided state.
