Social isolation may be a consequence of many circumstances and disorders. Retirement, illness, social anxiety, depression, can all lead to social isolation. People who become isolated tend to decline considerably both in physical and mental health.
Social isolation can quietly take root in our lives, leaving feelings of loneliness and disconnection that weigh heavily on the soul. In my practice, I offer a compassionate ear to those who feel adrift and disconnected from the world around them. Together, we explore pathways to reconnect with oneself and others, fostering meaningful relationships and a sense of belonging, step by gentle step.
Social isolation negatively impacts both depression and anxiety. I will work with you to better manage unwanted thoughts and feelings which interfere with daily living. I will work with you to begin widening your life in a comfortable and non-overwhelming manner.
We need human connection and yet social isolation is increasingly common. I work to help individuals build the types of connection they want to create a more meaningful life.
