I offer compassionate support and tailored interventions to help individuals break free from the grip of loneliness and reconnect with their communities. With a deep understanding of the profound impact of social isolation on mental and emotional well-being, I provide a safe and empathetic space for clients to explore the root causes of their isolation and develop strategies for meaningful connection. Leveraging my expertise and years of experience, I empower clients to cultivate fulfilling relationships, foster a sense of belonging, and rediscover joy in social interactions.

Social Isolation
Dr Grenville Major
Therapist, MBchB, MRCpsych, MSc psychological therapies
Not everyone needs the company of others but they are a minority. For most of us, the most rewarding experiences we have are the company and experience of others. Overcoming isolation is about finding and re evaluating the reasons we avoid others. I would like to meet with you to see what can be done to help you. This will enable us to get to know each other and see if we can work together. It’s important for you to work with someone you trust and feel safe with.

Alison Edwards CBT Therapy & Supervision
Psychologist, CBT Therapist, FMBPsS, MA (Hons), MSc, CertCouns, MSc
I have worked with a lot of clients who became very socially isolated during the Covid pandemic, and who have struggled to get back to socialising again after lockdowns. Many clients have had problems with social anxiety/ social phobia or depression before Covid, and some clients have new anxieties, fears and phobias due to the pandemic, lockdown and family challenges. I provide Cognitive Behaviour Therapy which is the recommended psychological therapy for social anxiety/ social phobia and depression. I can also provide CBT for traumas and PTSD.

Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
Social isolation can be the aftermath of multiple factors. Some peole struggle with being around others and in their attemt to avoid painful emotions and experiences, choose to keep contacts to a minimum. The reasons for interpersonal difficulties and the resulting avoidance of relationships can also be multifaceted, but in my experience almost aways link back to adveristies at various stages of a person's life (including their very early life).
Poverty, physical illness and disability and social exclusion are also often reasons for people to find themselves alone and isolated.
If you feel that this is an issue you are struggling with and would like to explore the reasons for it, please get in touch.

Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
This may or may not be linked to previous lockdown for some people. I work in a person centred way to understand the reasons behind it and set achievable goals with my client if this is what they want to do in order to build a support network.
