Stacy Kirkbride - Turnpage Counselling & Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, Registered Psychotherapist, Recreation Therapist
I provide support, understanding, and a solution-focused approach to the treatment of loneliness and isolation. Studies have shown that social isolation and loneliness have a major impact on our physical and psychological wellbeing including increased rates of heart disease, depression, anxiety, and decreased immune function. Collaboratively we will find ways to increase meaningful social connection, as well as increase self-confidence and self worth. Using a behavioral and acceptance based approach, we will work toward improving symptoms of depression and anxiety, as well as overall functioning, and uncovering the deeper roots of loneliness to assist you with engaging more fully with yourself and others.

Sarah Elizabeth McMillan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MA, MSW, RSW
Mental health support for physical illness, pain and uncertainty. Dealing with ongoing pain, physical discomfort and fatigue, whether stemming from an illness, disability or injury, can be a lonely experience. We may struggle to plan our daily activities, not knowing how we will feel at any given moment and fulfilling long term goals may feel out of reach. Because pain is often invisible and subjective, people in our lives (including healthcare providers!) may not understand what we’re going through. Our lives can start to feel very restrictive and small as the activities we used to enjoy or did easily are increasingly difficult. Much of our focus goes to seeking treatments and strategies to get rid of the pain yet relief tends to be temporary and it's hard to imagine any other option.

Whether it be due to self-esteem, geography or physical/ mental health issues, feeling isolated and alone can be a detriment to our overall wellness and health. Learning to pinpoint the roadblocks, problem solve the solutions and practice skills necessary to overcome them are all important steps to finding our folks and creating strong, healthy connections.

Utilizing a holistic perspective, I address social isolation by exploring its impact on mental and emotional well-being, and by integrating strategies that promote overall health, including physical activity, mindfulness, and creative expression.
