Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
I work with both adults and adolescents on an individual basis. Individual psychotherapy helps clients deal with particular issues, symptoms, and stressors. My goal is to provide a safe, non judgmental space for you to explore who you are, how you relate to others, and what supports you on your journey to become your best self. I lean into, listen, understand, and enhance authentic expression. Together we create a collaborative process of transformation. What that means and what that looks like is different for everyone...
I offer evidence-based therapies from a curious, nonjudgmental philosophy. No matter where you have been, evidence-based therapies focus on changing the now. I strive to help my clients experience the world mindfully, and in accordance with their personal values. Through our work in cultivating an affirming, authentic, and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship, I provide support while we collaboratively deconstruct what is causing distress in your life and preventing you from being your most effective and authentic self. Individual therapy facilitates insight and growth, becoming more effective at actualizing your values, and building more authentic relationships with yourself and with others.
While there are many forms of therapy you can pursue, my expertise is in time-limited, evidence-based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (CBT), the Unified Protocol for emotional disorders, and third wave CBT such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness based interventions. (I do have experience in, and practice, an eclectic arrangement of other modalities as well-- when applicable or specifically requested.) We explore thoughts, beliefs, and understanding, while also prioritizing behavioral processes that focus on your contexts and the functions of how you relate to your internal experiences. CBT is designed to help individuals notice and shift their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in order to get relief from painful emotions such as anxiety and sadness.
Third wave interventions also promote well-being through developing coping skills, personal values, and metacognition that complement traditional CBT interventions. I provide flexible, customizable approaches that look different with each patient. I empower my clients to discover their strength, clarity, creativity, autonomy, resilience, motivation, and confidence in meeting whatever happens next. I provide individualized tools to use in everyday decision-making that will help those changes last. With these modalities I treat individuals who are impacted by depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship distress, burnout, divorce, loss, uncertainty, stigma, and other life experiences, diagnoses, and stressors. We explore the sources, experiences, and beliefs that impact how you relate with the world and implement change in your life. You are the expert on you, but are you your most effective and content self?

Raquel Molina
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Social isolation can lead to depression, anxiety, accelerated cognitive decline, low self worth and irritability. I describe "Social Medicine" as a goal in therapy to increase social connections, which leads to a more content lifestyle. In therapy we can discuss ways to increase social interactions as well as improve mood.

Ilah Brock - Central Valley Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, C.Ht
We have been a world of isolated peoples and now that many areas of this great planet are starting to open and see the world again. Having been required to isolate has created a sense of desire to socialize and it can manifest as a phobia. You are not necessarily feeling lonely as much as just an inner isolation and being around people can be a little scary. Contact me - Let's chat about this.

Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Social isolation comes when the external world no longer seems a viable investment of your Self. The people, places, things and events do not feed you. Or you may be afraid of something or some part of what they represent. And yet in the end we are social creatures, and crave connection. Let's shine a light into the dark spaces with you and mend what needs mending.

Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
One word. Pandemic. It is rattling us to our core as we live with, oftentimes, paralyzing anxiety about the future of the unknown. We don't deal well with so much uncertainty, and having someone to talk through it with can be very comforting, humanizing and help reduce the isolation. Also, you need sun on your skin and regular soothing and uplifting activities.

Lisa Andresen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Feeling emotionally lonely? It takes time to find your people, especially when you're new to the area, work long hours, got bullied, or are dealing with a break-up. It's okay to turtle sometimes. You can be a lone wolf — and find a wolf pack. If you have difficulties trusting others or being truly open, then of course, friendships would be tricky. I can help you feel genuinely connected with at least one other person (besides me! :) ).

Loneliness is a much more common experience than most realize. Statistics indicate three out of every 5 adults complain of loneliness. That is ALOT of loneliness! Here we are experiencing this phenomenon in our individual houses and cubicles at work. We find ourselves at home "doing social life" on our computers instead of in person. All of course amplified/aggravated since the pandemic. Lets develop some goals to reduce the loneliness in your life. Lets strategize the steps you may be willing to consider to change this experience!

Psychologist, California Licensed Psychologist (License# PSY17495)
Humans are social animals. We are not the fastest animals nor the strongest, but one of our greatest strengths is that we are able work together and coordinate. People tend to be more emotionally healthy when they are connected to others. When cut off from social support people tend to not do as well in many areas of functioning. A variety of factors can result in isolation, including situational factors, as well as personal factors. Not everyone has the same social needs. Some people like to have one or two people very close to them, and others like to have a broad and active social life. As a clinician, taking into account people's relationships and social supports is a very important dimension in understanding what may be holding them back from thriving. Then understanding what is interfering with them having the relationships that would serve them well to have becomes another important step in the therapeutic process, and then this understanding can be used to support the client in taking the steps necessary to overcome those barriers. Quite often I help clients with this through what is called Interpersonal Psychotherapy, which involves making room in the therapy for hearing about the clients social interactions and relationships and then helping my clients to consider more effective ways of responding to others. Other times I help my clients become involved in new activities and communities which will provide opportunities to form new relationships.

Social connection is crucial for human beings and having less of it can be very tough on how we feel. You are not alone in this and there are ways to begin to feel connected again. You can be fulfilled and joyful again.
