Nora Taylor, MA, RP
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology 1994
Social isolation can occur for a variety of reasons; with the pandemic an aspect of this has been forced on us; sometimes it happens after a difficult experience; one where he felt it affected our sense of self or identity. It can leave a indelible mark on us. It involves going out again, taking some risks; otherwise we don't give ourselves the opportunity for a new experience. Also see resources for Shame. Shame can be incapacitating if not addressed as it thrives on secrecy.

Social Isolation
Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, MSc
Many of my clients, to at least some degree, are feeling isolated and crave more connection in their lives. We’re nearly all impacted by cultures of disconnection, over-work, domination, and hyper-individualism. Our personal identities—how we're generally treated in society—and our past experiences in relationships may also be shaping that disconnect. Relational Therapy is especially well suited to explore how this is happening for you. What's missing in your current connections? What's getting in the way of intimacy and relationship-building?What's your unique way of connecting—how can we grow and appreciate that? How is your relationship with yourself developing?
In my approach, the therapeutic relationship is a core part of healing: the experience of someone being curious, compassionate, and accountable to you can, over time, shift the way you experience yourself and others. I'll be with you in the feelings of isolation—whether that's a painful, stuck, protected, infuriating, or hopeless space—while also holding all the possibilities for finding the connections you're craving and deserve.

Amy Allen
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist Qualifying
As we are social beings, our ideas of connectedness can sometimes influence how we feel. Social isolation or feelings of loneliness can bring us in a spiral of negativity. It is important to address feelings of isolation as it can trickle into other mental health issues such as depression or anxiety.

A felt sense of belonging and of feeling connected to others is a key component of overall psycho-emotional well-being and health. We will work together to understand areas of loneliness, difficulties being alone with oneself (while still feeling connected to others) and factors that contribute to a sense of feeling disconnected from individual and community relationships and supports.

Liz Dean
Registered Social Worker, M.S.W., R.S.W
Are you held back by social isolation? Everyday we battle with messages that tell us how we should be and lead to feelings of shame and self-doubt. This is my specialization as I find the worst part of social isolation is that it is often misinterpreted by the self and others as a lack of effort or care and can lead to low self-esteem and excessive shame. My style is direct and genuinely non-judgemental so you can explore your history and current situation to build the wisdom and courage to find a new path forward.

Jennifer Ritchie Psychotherapy Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, CYW
*Welcoming new clients for immediate booking* What does feeling 'connected' mean to you? Together, let's explore how loneliness affects you and create a plan for getting you back on your path to connection today. Perhaps you're feeling isolated after moving countries or after a relationship breakdown, or you're no longer feeling close with your partner, family, or your friends. Perhaps you are part of a group, but never really feel 'part' of that group. Or maybe you are finding that your role as a new parent or caregiver is more isolating than you ever imagined. Social interaction is a part of life and it's human nature to crave companionship and connection. If you're feeling lonely and isolated or feel like you have no one to talk to, I am here for you. I can help.

Social Isolation
Delphine Amer
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., Registered Psychotherapist
For social isolation, I utilize typical CBT strategies (building an avoidance hierarchy, attempting steps on hierarchy, teaching about cognitive distortions, recognizing triggers, teaching relaxation and grounding techniques). I provide significant psychoeducation on proven clinical methods for managing anxiety. All the aforementioned presented kindly with empathy for the difficulties experienced. I spend considerable time exploring the roots of anxiety (core beliefs, rules and assumptions, automatic thoughts and adverse childhood events which can result in anxiety symptoms).

Bridges Clinical Hypnotherapy Services

The appearance of COVID-19 has exacerbated this issue. It's important to remember that while it's okay to feel sad, stressed, lonely or worried, everyone reacts differently and sometimes these issues take a while to go away. If you are experiencing these feelings, hypnosis is an effective way to reduce the effects of social isolation.
