Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Social isolation can feel both protective and painful—offering relief from stress or overwhelm while also leading to loneliness, disconnection, and a sense of being cut off from others. In therapy, we take time to understand how this pattern developed and what it’s been helping you manage. Together, we’ll explore the barriers to connection, gently expand your comfort with reaching out, and work toward building relationships that feel more supportive, meaningful, and sustainable over time.

Dr. Kristen Roman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Many of our clients come to use because they are struggling with social isolation, either due to depression, social anxiety, or moving to a new place/struggling to make new friends. We utilize CBT, which is a very goal-focused, skills-based treatment that will give you a concrete path towards becoming less isolated and more socially connected.

Struggles with coping with social isolation can lead to problems with relationships, work, or other areas of our lives. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can explore how to address your feelings of social isolation and how these struggles may impact your happiness and ability to get what you want. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to get more of what they want from life.

Dr. Elizabeth Richards
Psychologist, Psy.D.
We live in an age of unprecedented connectivity, yet social isolation and loneliness are on the rise. Many people today are facing feelings of disconnection, difficulty forming relationships, or struggles with intimacy. Together, we’ll explore the emotional, relational, and behavioral patterns that contribute to isolation, including past experiences, self-perception, interpersonal dynamics, and the realities of the modern world. I’ll guide you towards increasing awareness of these patterns, while supporting the cultivation of meaningful connections and healthy boundaries. By combining reflective insight with practical strategies for social engagement, therapy provides a space to practice connection safely and intentionally. My goal is to help you feel more supported, engaged, and connected — both to yourself and to others — fostering a sense of belonging and emotional well-being. Feel free to reach out for a complementary 15-minute consultation if you think I might be the right therapist for you.

Many people experience loneliness or a sense of disconnection, even when they are surrounded by others. While technology and social media have made it easier to stay connected in some ways, they can also leave us feeling isolated and longing for more meaningful relationships.

Together, we'll identify practical, personalized ways to expand your support system, strengthen existing relationships, and create a greater sense of belonging in your community and everyday life.

Manhattan is one of the most therapist-dense places in the world, with independent practices concentrated on the Upper West Side, in Chelsea, Midtown, and the East Village, serving an extraordinarily high per-capita demand for mental health care. The borough's concentration of finance, media, law, and healthcare professionals generates consistent demand for therapists experienced with high-stakes careers, perfectionism, and the emotional costs of extreme professional ambition. Manhattan also serves as the entry point for many immigrants from Latin America, Southeast Asia, and West Africa, and multilingual therapists make up a significant portion of the local clinical community. Columbia University Irving Medical Center, NYU Langone, and numerous academic training clinics provide institutional anchors and training pipelines for the borough's large private practice ecosystem.
