Social Isolation
Nina Hopmeier
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
Since we are by nature social beings, isolation from society can create feelings of loss, helplessness, and loneliness. Reasons for social isolation vary from person to person. In working together, we will explore what factors have lead to social isolation and how your current lifestyle may prevent you from creating a rich and fulfilling life. A fundamental part of therapy is also exploring the factors that maintain the social isolation. The therapy models that I apply largely depend on the unique history and relationship that the client has with social isolation. If social isolation occurs due to avoiding anxiety, I would primarily work with the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) model and with the Emotion Focused Therapy model (EFT) in order to change your relationship to the uncomfortable feelings maintaining the isolation. If isolation occurs due to debilitating thoughts that create feelings of hopelessness and insecurity I would work with the Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) model in order to help you challenge thoughts that prevent you from living the life that you want. If you are somebody who isolates socially I would be happy to work with you and devise a treatment plan that aligns with your unique needs.

Social Isolation
Melissa MacNeill
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC, Certified EFT Therapist, MACP
As humans we are wired to be connected, and to know that we can rely on important others for safety and comfort. When we reach for others in times of fear and uncertainty, their responsiveness, care and attention is soothing and helps to regulate our distress. We don't outgrow our need to feel loved, cared for, and held. The Covid-19 pandemic has only exacerbated the loneliness that so many were already feeling. I'll come along side to help you begin to reconnect and reestablish important relationships in ways that can lead to increased comfort, care, and love in your relationships.

Our Landing Place: Queer-Centred Mental Health
Therapist, RCC, CCC, RP, RP(q), RCT-C, RSW, MTA
All of our services are virtual, meaning that you can connect with your counsellor via Zoom or over the phone. This can help bridge the gap when connecting in person feels overwhelming, or if you have limited opportunities for connection where you are. We can help you to build your social confidence and connect with others 1-on-1 and through the groups, workshops, and events that we run throughout the year.

Social isolation can significantly affect mental health and well-being, leaving individuals feeling disconnected and alone. I recognize the importance of fostering connection and support, which is why I offer flexible session formats—whether in-person, over the phone, or online. This adaptability allows us to find the best way to engage that suits your comfort and needs, helping to reduce feelings of isolation. In our sessions, we will explore the underlying factors contributing to your sense of isolation and work collaboratively to develop strategies for building meaningful connections in your life. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming environment where you feel supported as we navigate these challenges together.
