Social Isolation therapists in Duntocher, Scotland Scotland, United Kingdom GB
Julie Jenner
Counsellor/Therapist, BA(Hons), NCS Senior Accredited
We can create social isolation for ourselves for so many reasons. For example, if we have not had the experience of asking for help and getting it, we can lead ourselves to assume nobody will help, nobody will understand, and therefore we pull back to the safety of isolation where we believe we cannot be hurt. But this does hurt us. Whether we like it or not, us humans need other humans. Counselling can help you understand why you didn't get help previously when needed, or why others did not understand what you were asking for or needing. You can start to understand that not everyone can offer the same level of support and that it is ok to keep asking. You don't have to suffer and struggle alone. Reach out.

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 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.
