Our relationships and social connections are fundamental to our well-being. Whether it’s the bonds we share with family, friends, or romantic partners, these connections play a crucial role in our emotional health. However, when these relationships are strained, they can lead to feelings of loneliness, isolation, and distress. At Just Now Therapy, I help clients navigate and improve their relationships, fostering stronger connections and greater social well-being.
Loneliness is more than just being alone—it’s a deep sense of disconnection from others, even when you’re surrounded by people. Whether it stems from a lack of close relationships or from feeling misunderstood, loneliness can have a significant impact on your mental health. Together, we can explore ways to build meaningful connections and overcome the barriers that contribute to your loneliness.
Conflicts are a natural part of any relationship, but when left unresolved, they can lead to long-term issues and emotional pain. I work with clients to understand the root causes of their conflicts, develop effective communication strategies, and find resolutions that strengthen their relationships rather than weaken them.
Family relationships are often the most impactful in our lives, for better or worse. If you’ve grown up in a dysfunctional or toxic family environment, those dynamics can continue to affect you well into adulthood. In therapy, we can address these issues, helping you to heal from past wounds and establish healthier boundaries with family members.
Isolation can feel like a protective shield, keeping you safe from the complexities of social interaction. However, prolonged isolation can lead to increased feelings of loneliness and depression. Therapy can help you gradually re-engage with the world, building your confidence and social skills so that you can form positive, supportive relationships.
